Jackery Explorer 1500 v2
A 1,536 Wh LiFePO4 station with 2,000 W of AC output (4,000 W surge peak) that weighs 31.97 lb and runs a 25 cu ft French-door refrigerator for about 14 hours. It suits outage backup and RV trips that need more battery than the 1,070 Wh Explorer 1000 v2, but it does not take an expansion battery.

Jackery, 1,500 to 2,599 Wh
1,536Wh
A refrigerator, router and lights through a day without power; RV weekends.
Strengths
- 2,000 W continuous and 4,000 W peak: runs a 1,725 W air fryer or a family-size microwave that draws 1,600 W, which the 1,500 W Explorer 1000 v2 cannot.
- Jackery lists charging and discharging from -4 °F to 113 °F; the Explorer 1000 v2, Explorer 2000 v2 and the Anker SOLIX models list charging from 32 °F.
- Recharges 0-100% in 64 minutes in Fast Charging Mode, and 0-80% in 53 minutes from a wall outlet.
- Rated for 6,000 cycles to 70%+ capacity, against 4,000 for the Explorer 1000 v2 and 2000 v2.
- Two 100 W USB-C ports and a 10 ms UPS switchover; the Explorer 1000 v2 and 2000 v2 list 20 ms.
Limits
- Three AC outlets, against five on the Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 and six on the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2.
- 400 W of solar input; the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 takes 800 W and the DJI Power 1000 V2 1,800 W.
- No expansion battery: 1,536 Wh is the most it holds.
- As of October 28, 2026, Jackery's refurbished store does not list it, unlike the Explorer 1000 v2 and 2000 v2.

Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 questions
How many nights will the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 run a CPAP?
A ResMed AirSense 11 at its typical 56 W runs about 17 hours on AC power: 2.1 nights of 8 hours. ResMed's typical figure includes its humidifier; a higher humidifier or heated-tube setting raises the draw. Running the CPAP from the 12 V socket with ResMed's DC converter avoids the inverter's own draw.
How long does the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 take to charge?
Jackery states 64 min to full from a wall outlet, and up to 400 W of solar input.
Can you add batteries to the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2?
No. Jackery says it does not take extra batteries, so 1,536 Wh is the most it holds.
What battery does the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 use?
LiFePO4, rated by Jackery for 6000 cycles to 70%+ capacity.
