Jackery HomePower 1000 v2
A kilowatt-hour, 23 pounds, six thousand cycles, sixteen years of nightly use: the HomePower 1000 v2 is the smallest of Jackery’s home line. It clears a CPAP night and wins 12 of 18 head-to-heads, all five against BLUETTI, and loses all three against its Explorers. No owners yet; one field test found it kept its promises in hundred-degree heat.

What the HomePower 1000 v2 actually runs
The load profiles every comparison on the site is scored on, computed for this unit alone: energy needed against the usable tank after inverter losses, and whether the inverter holds and starts the biggest single load.

Who it is for, and when a rival won instead
Each line is lifted from a written matchup where it decided the verdict, and links to the page it came from. Repeated across many matchups means it is the unit’s signature, not one author’s opinion.
Buy the HomePower 1000 v2 if…
You want the longer-lived, cheaper-to-own battery, 6,000 cycles and $0.09 per lifetime kWh against 4,000 and $0.15.
Decided 7 matchups · read one →
You carry it often and feel every pound: at 23.4 lb it's a full 5 lb under the C1000's 28.4.
Decided 2 matchups · read one →
You start hard motor loads and value the bigger surge cushion, 3,000W against the Elite's 2,700W, plus the lighter carry at 23.4 lb against 25.
Decided 2 matchups · read one →
Your needs are fixed and you want the cheaper box to own: $100 less up front, $0.09 per lifetime kWh against $0.16, 6,000 cycles against 4,000.
A rival won when…
You want the most capacity per dollar near $499 and can two-hand a 35.3-lb unit on the rare occasions it moves.
Decided 6 matchups · read one →
You run bigger continuous loads, where the Elite's 1,800W beats the HomePower's 1,500W.
Decided 2 matchups · read one →
You run loads near the ceiling, since the DELTA's 1,800W continuous and 3,600W surge clear things the HomePower's 1,500W can't touch.
Decided 2 matchups · read one →
Buyers who want the most usable energy per dollar, 1,440Wh for $599, and whose daily draw approaches or tops a kilowatt-hour, like a full workday off one charge.

How to read this
- Usual is the price the unit carried most of the time, tested for how long it held rather than how often we looked. A weekend promotion cannot move it.
- Best is the lowest price we have read on the store itself. Typed coupon codes, member-only prices and marketplace listings are not counted; anything applied automatically at checkout is.
- A gap in the line is a day we could not read a price. We never draw across one, and we never show the store’s own “was” price.

From the test desk
“The two share a battery, so you're really picking everything around it.”
“The C1000 Gen 2 wins on capability and options: 2,000W continuous against 1,500W, 600W solar against 400W, 140W USB-C against 100W, and an expansion port the Jackery doesn't have at any price.”
“At an identical $549, the Jackery HomePower 1000 v2 is the better buy for most people, though it's close and it comes with an asterisk.”

Questions people ask
Is the DJI worth $150 more than the Jackery HomePower 1000 v2?
Only if you need what the extra money buys, which is output and expandability, not runtime. The battery is the same 1,024Wh, so the DJI's 2,600W inverter and add-on batteries are the whole difference. If your loads stay under 1,500W and you won't expand, the Jackery does the same work for less and lasts longer.
Is the Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 worth $100 more than the Jackery HomePower 1000 v2?
Only if you'll use what the $100 buys: 500W more continuous output, 200W more solar input, 40W more USB-C, and an expansion port. If your loads stay under 1,500W and your capacity needs are fixed, the Jackery is the cheaper box to own by a real margin — $0.09 per lifetime kWh against $0.16.
Anker SOLIX C1000 vs Jackery HomePower 1000 v2: which should I buy?
At the same $549, the HomePower is the better pick for most buyers. It's 5 lb lighter (23.4 against 28.4), rated for twice the cycles (6,000 against 3,000), and cheaper to own ($0.09 against $0.17 per lifetime kWh). Choose the C1000 if you need to expand past 1kWh, want its stronger 1,800W output, or prefer a unit with a proven year of use behind it.
Which is quieter, the C1000 or the HomePower 1000 v2?
The HomePower at least tells you: it's rated at 30dBA. Anker publishes no figure for the C1000, and fan noise under fast charging or heavy load is its most common complaint in reviews [A1]. Under light loads the C1000 is quiet; it's the spin-up under stress that draws the criticism.
Does the Jackery HomePower 1000 v2 expand?
No, it's sealed at 1,024Wh. The C1000 is the expandable one in this pair, taking add-on batteries to grow past its 1,056Wh. If you expect to need more than 1kWh down the road, that's the C1000's clearest advantage; if 1kWh is your ceiling for good, the HomePower's fixed design costs you nothing.
