Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 vs EcoFlow DELTA 3
Updated October 15, 2026
Short answer: if you’ll carry it, we’d go for the Jackery. If it’ll mostly stay at home or in the van, we’d go for the DELTA 3.
Capacity is nearly a tie, 1,070Wh against 1,024Wh, so you’ll get about the same hours from either on the same fridge. The differences are weight, inverter size and what happens when you want more later.

When we’d pick the Jackery Explorer 1000 v2
The Explorer 1000 v2 weighs 23.8 lb, the lightest 1kWh station we cover. Its 1,500W inverter still handles a small coffee maker, and you get 400W of solar input.
When we’d pick the EcoFlow DELTA 3
The DELTA 3 gives you an 1,800W inverter, six AC outlets and 500W of solar input. And EcoFlow sells extra batteries for it, up to 5 kWh, so you can add time without replacing the station.
Here’s the catch with the DELTA 3: at 27.6 lb it’s a proper two-hand lift, so if it’s going up stairs often, that extra weight adds up.
