Specifications checked against manufacturer pages on 2026-09-11.
The Jackery HomePower 1000 Plus v2 pairs 1,024 Wh of LiFePO4 cells with a 1,800 W inverter, which puts it in the 1 kWh-class bracket. We read every figure below off Jackery’s own product page on 2026-09-11, calculated what the rated capacity does to a set of household appliances, and listed what the page leaves out. Where a number is ours rather than the maker’s, the row says which.
In short. 1,024 Wh in the 1 kWh-class band: $0.73/Wh at the list price we recorded; 43.0 Wh per pound; 6,000 rated cycles to 70%+. On our assumptions a full-size refrigerator calculates to 16–17 hr, and a 40 W CPAP calculates to 18–21 hr. Every hour figure above is arithmetic, not a measurement.

Who it is for, and who should skip it
Read this first; it decides whether the rest of the page is for you.
It fits if
- A refrigerator is what you are saving. It clears a 12-hour outage on our assumptions with about 4 hours to spare, and the stated 3,600 W surge covers a roughly 900 W start.
- One night of uninterrupted medical equipment. A 40 W machine without a humidifier runs the night with margin, and the maker states under 10 ms on the grid handover. A heated humidifier changes that arithmetic.
- The unit has to move. 23.8 lb is a two-hands lift rather than a cart job, so car to porch to basement is realistic.
Skip it if
- You want resistive heat. A 1,500 W heater empties this unit in about 0.6 hr. Batteries this size do not do heat.
- You own a large array already. It takes at most 400 W of solar; panels past that ceiling idle rather than charge it faster.
- The load is a furnace or a well pump. Both are normally hard-wired, so reaching them needs a transfer switch fitted by a licensed electrician, whatever the inverter can do.

Notes on the figures
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, rated capacity: Tech Specs > Battery > Capacity.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, continuous output: Tech Specs > Output Ports > AC Total Output. Per-outlet line reads the same figure: “4 x AC: 120V~ 60Hz, 15A, 1800W Rated” (no “per port” wording, unlike the two larger HomePower models below).
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, surge: 1800W Rated, 3600W Surge peak
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, full recharge: AC Wall Charging — 1600W, full charge in 50 min
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, cell chemistry: Cell Chemistry LiFePO4
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, cycle life: 6000 cycles to 70%+ capacity
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, UPS switchover: Features section “Switches to Battery Faster Than You’ll Notice.” Not a separate line in the formal Tech Specs table.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, expandable: Page title. Compatible only with the Battery Pack 2000 Plus V2 (not the older Battery Pack 2000 Plus or Battery Pack 1000 Plus).
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, expandable: From the “Expansion—From 1-11 kWh” feature section. Arithmetically 1.024 kWh (base) + 5 x 2 kWh (packs) = 11.024 kWh, rounded to “11 kWh” in marketing copy.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, solar input: One line of the “Multiple Ways to Recharge, Get Power Anywhere” list (Features tab). No separate numbered “Solar Input” line exists in the formal Tech Specs Input Ports table for this model; the DC input row there (“DC Expansion Port: 36.8V-56V=45A Max”) is used for battery-pack expansion, not solar.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, AC input: One line of the “Multiple Ways to Recharge, Get Power Anywhere” list (Features tab). Tech Specs’ formal Input Ports table states only “AC Input 100V-120V~ 60Hz, 15A Max” (amps, not watts).
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, AC outlets: 4 x AC: 120V~ 60Hz, 15A, 1800W Rated
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, USB-C: A second USB-C port on the same unit is capped lower (“USB-C 30W: 30W Max, 5V=3A, 9V=3A, 12V=2.5A, 15V=2A, 20V=1.5A”); 140W is the higher of the two.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, app: Under the feature heading “Smart App Control.” Corroborated by an in-app screenshot on the page showing an “Output priority settings” screen.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, noise: Under the feature heading “Runs Silently Next to Your Mic.” Figure applies to the unit’s “Silent Mode,” not general operating noise.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, warranty: Tech Specs > General > Warranty. Amazon’s listing separately advertises a “5-year warranty” – consistent with the base 3 years plus a conditional 2-year extension (registration/purchase terms not transcribed). We record the base warranty term; the extension is conditional.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, weight: Tech Specs > General > Weight.
- HomePower 1000 Plus v2, price: List price of the standalone “HomePower 1000 Plus v2” option on the manufacturer’s price selector; the site showed a sale price of $669.00 (“$80 OFF”) when checked. We record the manufacturer’s list price, not the sale price of the day.
What no maker states
The omissions are the part other pages copy from each other without noticing. The gap left on this page is the one the whole industry leaves. Only 5 of 34 transcribed units leave no gap at all, and this is one of them.
- Usable capacity. Universally absent. The band in the table above is our calculation from an assumed efficiency, not a figure anyone publishes.
That gap is not this maker’s failing, and no page can close it honestly. Any confident usable-capacity figure you find for this unit, anywhere, is somebody’s estimate rather than a published number.
What it runs, and for how long
Every unit we cover meets the same appliance list, so nothing below is tuned to flatter this one.
| Appliance | HomePower 1000 Plus v2 |
|---|---|
| Full-size refrigerator 150 W, 900 W start, 35% duty · eff. 80%–87% |
16–17 hr |
| Mini fridge 70 W, 400 W start, 30% duty · eff. 70%–82% |
34–40 hr |
| CPAP without humidifier 40 W · eff. 70%–82% |
18–21 hr |
| CPAP with heated humidifier 95 W · eff. 80%–87% |
8.6–9.4 hr |
| Gas furnace blower 400 W, 1600 W start, 40% duty · eff. 85%–90% |
5.4–5.8 hr |
| 1/3 hp sump pump 500 W, 1800 W start, 15% duty · eff. 85%–90% |
about 12 hr |
| Router and modem 20 W · eff. 70%–82% |
36–42 hr |
| Laptop 60 W · eff. 70%–82% |
12–14 hr |
| 1500W space heater 1500 W · eff. 82%–88% |
about 0.6 hr |
These are calculations, not measurements: hours = rated Wh × efficiency ÷ (appliance W × duty). The assumptions behind every figure are listed on How we verify; “Unlikely to start” means the appliance surge is above the stated rating.
The same specs, normalized
| Measure | HomePower 1000 Plus v2 |
|---|---|
| Cost per watt-hour | $0.73/Wh |
| Watt-hours per pound | 43.0 Wh/lb |
| Surge headroom | 2.00× |
| Recharge rate | 20.5 Wh/min |
| Rated cycle life | 6,000 cycles to 70%+ |
| Continuous watts per dollar | 2.40 W/$ |
Ratios have no winner here — there is no second column. Each one is defined, with its direction, on How we verify.
What those figures actually mean
Cost per watt-hour: $0.73/Wh. The $749 list price we recorded over 1,024 Wh of rated capacity. It is the one figure that compares a small unit with a large one honestly, and the figure a sale moves fastest. Recompute it against the price you are shown.
Watt-hours per pound: 43.0 Wh/lb. 1,024 Wh in 23.8 lb makes this a two-hands lift. Weight per watt-hour is the cost of the chemistry, not of the design.
Surge headroom: 2.00×. A stated 3,600 W surge over a 1,800 W continuous rating, which covers the roughly 900 W a full-size refrigerator needs to start. Headroom decides whether the appliance starts at all; the hours only matter afterwards.
Recharge rate: 20.5 Wh/min. A full wall charge in 50 minutes. On day three this matters more than capacity does.
Rated cycle life: 6,000 cycles to 70%+ capacity. That is about 115 years at a cycle a week. Outage use never gets near it; van and off-grid use can. The percentage matters as much as the count: two ratings only compare when they name the same remaining capacity.
Continuous watts per dollar: 2.40 W/$. If your plan is one heavy appliance rather than several light ones for days, this is the ratio that describes your purchase.
Where it sits in our database
A single unit’s figures do not say whether a number is large or small. Ours do, because every unit below was transcribed the same way.
| Measure | HomePower 1000 Plus v2 | Among verified units |
|---|---|---|
| Rated capacity | 1,024 Wh | 25th largest of 34 |
| Continuous AC output | 1,800 W | 24th highest of 34 |
| Cost per watt-hour | $0.73/Wh | 20th cheapest of 32 |
| Watt-hours per pound | 43.0 Wh/lb | 7th densest of 34 |
| Weight | 23.8 lb | 11th lightest of 34 |
Rank is not a recommendation: the smallest unit here is the right answer for somebody. The row built on price uses the manufacturer list price recorded on 2026-09-11; the retail price behind our link moves independently, so recompute that row against what you are shown.
Three outages, and the figure that decides each
- One night, one CPAP. A 40 W CPAP without a humidifier calculates to 18–21 hr. The stated under 10 ms handover is what decides whether the machine notices the outage.
- Twelve hours, one refrigerator. A typical full-size refrigerator calculates to 16–17 hr, and the stated 3,600 W surge covers its roughly 900 W start.
- The loads people forget. A gas furnace blower calculates to 5.4–5.8 hr and a one-third horsepower sump pump calculates to about 12 hr. In most houses neither has a plug, so the answer runs through a transfer switch, not an inverter. A router and modem, meanwhile, calculates to 36–42 hr.
- Three days, with something to recharge from. A full wall recharge takes 50 minutes, and it accepts up to 400 W of solar, so day two turns on your panels and your sky.
Questions people ask about the HomePower 1000 Plus v2
No answer here uses a number that is not on this page.
How long will the HomePower 1000 Plus v2 run a refrigerator?
16–17 hr on our assumptions for a typical full-size unit at 150 W running and a 35% duty cycle. The stated surge covers the roughly 900 W start. A newer or smaller refrigerator will beat this figure.
Can the HomePower 1000 Plus v2 run a CPAP all night?
Yes on capacity: a 40 W machine without a humidifier calculates to 18–21 hr against the eight hours a night usually needs. The maker states under 10 ms on the handover. Heated tubing and a humidifier change this figure sharply.
How long does the HomePower 1000 Plus v2 take to recharge?
50 minutes from a wall outlet on the maker’s figure, with up to 400 W accepted from solar. Refill speed is what a multi-day outage actually tests.
How much does the HomePower 1000 Plus v2 weigh?
23.8 lb on the maker’s figure, or 43.0 Wh of rated capacity carried per pound. That is a two-hands lift, which is why units this size tend to stay where you put them.
How many cycles is the HomePower 1000 Plus v2 rated for?
6,000 cycles to 70%+ of original capacity, on LiFePO4 cells, which is roughly 115 years at one cycle a week. Check the percentage before comparing this with another maker’s number.
Can you expand the HomePower 1000 Plus v2’s capacity?
Yes, to a stated 11,000 Wh with the maker’s expansion battery, up from 1,024 Wh alone. Verify the battery exists at retail before paying for the option.

A 1,024 Wh battery cannot do what a gasoline generator does — a 1,500 W space heater empties it in about 0.6 hr — but it also cannot poison a household. The safety half of that trade-off is in our CPSC revision matrix of generator carbon-monoxide death counts, and the refrigerator page shows where this unit lands among all the others on one scenario.
