EcoFlow vs Jackery
Specs from each maker’s product page, checked November 1, 2026.
Short answer
At the same size they’re close. The Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 has a little more capacity than the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus (1,070 vs 1,024 Wh) but less output (1,500 vs 1,800 W). Their cycle ratings aren’t measured the same way: Jackery counts to 70% capacity, EcoFlow to 80%.
Side by side
| Model | Capacity | AC output | Surge | Cycles | Runs a fridge |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus | 286 Wh | 600 W | 1,200 W | 3,000 to 80% | 3 h 48 min |
| Jackery Explorer 300 v2 | 288 Wh | 300 W | 600 W | 4,000 to 70% | 3 h 50 min |
| EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus | 1,024 Wh | 1,800 W | 3,600 W | 4,000 to 80% | 13 h 37 min |
| Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 | 1,070 Wh | 1,500 W | 3,000 W | 4,000 to 70% | 14 h 14 min |
| Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus | 2,042.8 Wh | 3,000 W | 6,000 W | 4,000 to 70% | 27 h 10 min |
| EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max | 2,048 Wh | 2,400 W | 4,800 W | — | 27 h 14 min |
| EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 | 4,096 Wh | 4,000 W | — | 4,000 to 80% | 2.3 days |
| Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus | 5,040 Wh | 7,200 W | 14,400 W | 4,000 to 70% | 2.8 days |
Fridge runtime: capacity × 0.85 ÷ 64 W, the average draw of ENERGY STAR’s median bottom-freezer fridge (560 kWh a year). Both makers publish the 0.85 formula. The DELTA Pro 3 lists no surge figure on its page.
What actually differs
Output. Size for the biggest thing you’ll run, plus its start-up surge. A 1,500 W microwave or a window AC rules out the small models of either brand.
Cycle ratings. Jackery’s “4,000 cycles to 70%” and EcoFlow’s “4,000 cycles to 80%” aren’t the same promise; 80% is the stricter end point.
Capacity per dollar changes with every sale, so check current prices against the Wh, not the model name.
