Owner pros and cons

Jackery HomePower 3000

  • +3,600W continuous with 7,200W surge handles a well pump and fridge together
  • +Dedicated 120V 30A outlet for an RV cord or transfer inlet
  • +59.5 lbs is light for a 3kWh unit
  • +Bypass mode passes wall power through
  • −Cannot be expanded; Jackery points to the 2000 Plus or 5000 Plus for that
  • −120V only, so no 240V loads and no whole-home panel feed
  • −No published noise figure

Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus

  • +Two units pair for 240V loads like well pumps and dryers
  • +3,600W with 7,200W surge starts a well pump on its own
  • +Wheels and a telescoping handle for a 77 lb unit
  • +6,000-cycle LiFePO4 pack, with a 30 dB Quiet Mode
  • +UPS switchover within 10 ms
  • −About 77 lbs, a two-person lift on stairs
  • −Fan reaches 50.3 dB at one meter at full load
  • −120V 30A outlet only; no L14-30, so a 240V feed needs two units and the maker's accessories
  • −Battery Pack 3600 modules add large cost per kWh
