3,600 W running, 7,200 W surge — sustains the fridge, freezer and the essentials tier and everything below it.

Best forHomeowners who want a modular essentials-backup system that can grow to multiple days and add 240V by pairing units.

The expandable counterpart to the HomePower 3000, and the model Jackery now leads with for home essentials. 3,584Wh with 3,600W continuous and 7,200W surge on wheels with a pull handle, rated 6,000 cycles. A single unit runs 120V loads: fridge, furnace blower, a window AC, a sump pump. Pair two for 240V and owners with a well pump or dryer say that is the point of buying this over the 3000. It stacks Battery Pack 3600 modules up to roughly 21kWh, which is the real separation from Jackery's standard series. The quiet mode and the wheels are the well-liked parts; the fan is clearly audible at full load (50.3 dB at one meter). It weighs about 77 pounds, so stairs are a two-person job. The 30A outlet is 120V, not the L14-30 that a typical inlet box wants, so a manual transfer switch needs the maker's accessory. Jackery lists it at $1,899 and sells it at a steady discount.
