Head-to-head test
EcoFlow TITAN 5000 Plus vs Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus
On battery the Plus tops out at 7,200W, which is just 30 A at 240 V, so its 41.7 A outlet only fills with grid power passing through; unless you're building a big in-line 240 V system, the 120 V Jackery covers the essentials for far less.

Spec deltas
EcoFlow's label for the TITAN 5000 Plus reads 10 kW of total output and, in the same breath, 7,200W for discharge onlyA1. That second number is the one that matters with the grid down, and it's the same figure the 30 A TITAN 5000 delivers. Against the Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus, a 3,600W unit our record lists as 120 V only, the Plus still doubles the output and carries 5,017.6WhA7 to the Jackery's 3,584Wh.
So the Plus is plainly the bigger machine; the question is whether you're the buyer it was built for. Its signature hardware, a 41.7 A split-phase outlet in a 14-50 patternA2A3 and an 8 kW charging pathA5, is aimed at a permanent, panel-fed install. As a box you plug things into, it offers two ordinary 120 V sockets beside the big one.
Our call is the Jackery for anyone backing up 120 V essentials, at $1,800 less. The Plus earns its price when you're wiring a large 240 V circuit through it, and not much before.
What the Numbers Reveal
Each conclusion stated first — the numbers behind it on one line, the full analysis below.
continuous output
In an outage, then, the Plus's big outlet carries what a 30 A split-phase outlet carries. The extra amps earn their keep with the grid up, when the Plus sits in line on a large circuit and passes power straight through. It still doubles the Jackery's output on battery, but the specific thing the Plus charges extra for is mostly a grid-on feature.
Plus label: Total Output 10 kW Max, 7,200W for discharge onlyA1Plus: 120/240 V split-phase at 41.7 A, against 30 A on the TITAN 5000A2Jackery: 3,600W continuous at 120 V, 240 V outputs: 0
Why it mattersJudge the Plus at 7,200W if you're buying it for blackouts; the 41.7 A rating matters to someone who wants a permanent in-line feed on a big circuit.
solar input
So 8 kW describes a system, not an outlet. EcoFlow sells the Plus bundled with its 240 V Smart Home Panel 10, solar panels and extra batteriesA6, and a figure like that assumes a setup of that kind; plugged into an ordinary socket, the Plus is held to its 15 A wall input. Solar alone is 8,000W against the Jackery's 1,000W, and that's the part of the charging story anyone can use.
EcoFlow's display image: 8.00 kW in and 10.00 kW outA5Plus solar: 8,000W total across 2 inputs, 40–450 V and 4,000W eachA4Plus AC input: 100–120 V, 15 A maxA9Jackery solar: 1,000W
Why it mattersIf the 8 kW path is your reason to choose the Plus, confirm with EcoFlow which hardware delivers it before paying for it.
For a household keeping the fridge, the router and a CPAP going on 120 V, the Jackery is the one shaped for the job, and one owner's two-day run on just that kind of load listB3 shows its 3,584Wh can carry it. The Plus would manage too, with more left over, but you'd be paying for a 240 V outlet that sits empty.
Plus outlets: two 120 V 20 A sockets and one 14-50-pattern outletA3Plus USB: none, with no USB ports or 12 V outputsA10Jackery: five AC outlets, two USB-C rated up to 100W, one 30 A RV portOne Jackery owner ran a fridge, a microwave, fans, string lights and a CPAP for two days of a three-day blackout on one chargeB3
Why it mattersIf nobody's wiring anything into your electrical panel, the Jackery matches how you'll actually use a backup battery.
The specific dimensions that decide these two units — everything else is a tie.
Growth Path
Selected because: The Plus's case rests on refill speed and room to grow: an 8 kW charging path, 8,000W of solar and up to six packs, against the Jackery's 1,000W input.
solar input
This is the Plus at its best. It takes 8,000W of solar to the Jackery's 1,000W, carries a charging path EcoFlow's own display puts at 8.00 kWA5, and grows to six packs, 30,105.6WhA8. A bank that size is a whole-home system, and quick refills are what keep a system that big useful through a long outage.
The Jackery grows tooB4, though our evidence gives no ceiling, and it grows behind a 1,000W solar input. That's fine for a 120 V essentials bank and the wrong foundation for days of 240 V autonomy, but the buyer chasing that was never going to pick the Jackery.
Your Life, Your Pick
Selected because: These everyday loads are what a typical household would actually run, and they show how much of the Plus a 120 V home would use.
The Plus takes the rows where capacity shows, finishing the blackout night with 2,620Wh still in reserve to the Jackery's 1,401Wh. That's a real edge, and if your outages stretch across several nights it's the strongest everyday argument for the bigger unit.
Look at the loads, though. The heaviest peak in any scenario is 400W, a sliver of either inverter, and nothing here touches 240 V. These rows are a portrait of the 120 V household, and in that portrait the Plus's defining hardware sits idle while the Jackery does the work.
Brand Trust
Selected because: A panel-wired Plus commits you to EcoFlow's ecosystem for the long haul, so what each brand builds around its batteries matters here.
Jackery's reputation is the dependable, stocked-everywhere one, the 'Toyota' of power stations in the brand record, with the standing caveat that it's often seen as overpriced for its specs next to newer rivals. EcoFlow sits mid-to-premium and backs that with the deepest ecosystem in portable power, up to whole-home stacking systems at the top of its range.
For a unit you wire into the house, ecosystem depth is the trait that keeps paying. The 240 V Smart Home Panel 10 the Plus is sold withA6 comes from the same maker as the battery and its expansion packs, so one company is on the hook for how the pieces fit together.

HomePower 3600 Plus
The TITAN 5000 Plus at 121.3 lbs is not a take-along — it rolls off a truck bed if it travels at all, so this scenario belongs to the HomePower 3600 Plus by default — and it earns it, covering the 2,100Wh with 946Wh to spare. Capacity was never the TITAN 5000 Plus's problem here; getting to a campsite was.

TITAN 5000 Plus
Both survive the night. The TITAN 5000 Plus finishes at 39% used with 2,620Wh left — 1.6 more nights like it. The HomePower 3600 Plus finishes at 54% with 1,401Wh, 85% of a second night. If your outages tend to run past one evening, that difference is the whole argument between them.

SCN-03 · 8 hours · needs 320Wh
CPAP Overnight
Sleep therapy without interruption — the #1 medical use case
HomePower 3600 Plus
A CPAP is about 40W for eight hours, so both of these cover the night several times over — capacity isn't the question here, and the percentages are a formality. What matters is the box next to your pillow, and the only published difference is a rating: the HomePower 3600 Plus is rated 30dB against the TITAN 5000 Plus's 39dB. Each is the maker's own published rating, and the makers do not measure the same way, some quoting a best case and some a figure under load, so neither number describes a 40W draw and the two are not really comparable. Treat them as a reason to look for hands-on reports before either one goes next to a bed, not as a difference you can count on hearing.

Both power your workstation all day without strain. The HomePower 3600 Plus lists 100W of USB-C for direct laptop charging; the TITAN 5000 Plus carries no USB-C at all, so a laptop there goes through the inverter and you are carrying its brick.

Conclusion
October 4, 2026
Verdict: the Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus
Buy the Jackery unless you're installing a big 240 V system. The Plus is the more capable machine, with a bigger pack, double the output and split-phase power, but what sets it apart is a 41.7 A outlet whose extra amps need solar or grid power flowing inA1A2 and an 8 kW charging pathA5, and both pay off only in a wired, panel-fed install. A household keeping 120 V essentials alive gets that job done on the Jackery and keeps $1,800. If you need 240 V and 30 A covers it, the TITAN 5000 delivers the same 7,200W from its batteryA1.

Runtime = (rated capacity × 0.85 inverter efficiency) ÷ device wattage. Solar recharge estimates assume panels deliver 70% of rated output. Cold weather, battery age, and stacked loads reduce real-world results.
Power Score
Computed from 14 published spec dimensions, weighted per use-case bench. Higher is better; a unit must meet a bench's minimum threshold to be rated.
See the full weight table and data sourcing on our methodology page →Class ranking (the star rating)
Each unit's star score is a category ranking, not customer reviews — no buyer opinions feed it. We score every station on size-independent quality (value, output, portability, endurance, ports, warranty, and more), then percentile-rank it against the other units in its capacity class, so a class-leading compact unit and a class-leading whole-home unit can both earn 5★. Here, TITAN 5000 Plus rates 4.7/5 (84th percentile of 20 Home Backup-class units), and HomePower 3600 Plus rates 3.9/5 (37th percentile of 20 Home Backup-class units).

Hidden gotchas and advantages we spotted that you won't find on the product page.
Weight Reality Check
Neither unit is grab-and-go. The HomePower 3600 Plus (77.2 lbs) is manageable solo but heavier than a large checked suitcase. The TITAN 5000 Plus (121.3 lbs) is firmly a two-person lift. It goes where you put it and stays there. That's a 44 lb difference, and it is paid once — getting the heavier one into position, not every time you move it.
Warranty: No Difference
Both units carry the same 5-year warranty, so coverage isn't a tiebreaker here. The HomePower 3600 Plus's figure is a maximum rather than a guarantee — it depends on registering the unit with Jackery, which is what extends the base term to the full period. Worth saying because the per-dollar framing can suggest otherwise: the HomePower 3600 Plus works out at 2.6 years of cover per $1,000 spent against the TITAN 5000 Plus's 1.4, but that spread is the price gap, not the terms.

│ warranty ends · Reaching the cycle rating means ~80% capacity remains — degraded, not dead. est. = no published cycle rating; the brand’s average is used instead.
Analyst note
The TITAN 5000 Plus has no published cycle rating, so its lifetime rows use the average of the 28 LiFePO4 units EcoFlow does rate: about 3,400 cycles. That's a fair baseline for the brand but not a rating for this unit, so cost to own isn't scored on it. Judge these two on price, capacity and warranty, and read the rows marked "est." as a ballpark.
Brand trust
EcoFlow
Ecosystem
Largest in portable power — 12-15 models across DELTA Pro, DELTA 3, and RIVER 3 series, plus solar panels and smart home panels
Support
US-based phone/email/chat support (1-800-368-8604). Experiences are polarized — many report hassle-free prepaid-label replacements, but others report long waits and refurbished units sent for new claims. Pro tip: buying from Costco or Amazon gives you a stronger return safety net.
Community
Largest community in the space — Reddit r/Ecoflow_community (~31K members), multiple Facebook groups, and an official community forum
App experience
Rated 4.6/5 iOS (~8,400 ratings) · 4.2/5 Android (~17,000 ratings)
Unique strength
Fastest-charging technology (X-Stream), deepest product ecosystem, and most active innovation cadence. At the top of the range sit two whole-home paths: the TITAN line, one 5 kWh unit that grows to 30 kWh, and the DELTA Pro Ultra platform, which stacks batteries and inverters further — flagship paths, not line-wide features.
Worth knowing
Tested subscription paywalls for advanced app features in early 2025 before community backlash paused the plan. No parts or service offered out of warranty.
Jackery
Ecosystem
12-15+ models across Explorer (portable) and HomePower (home backup) series, plus SolarSaga panel ecosystem and innovative form factors
Support
US-based support but widely criticized. Reddit reports describe slow/dismissive responses, scripted AI agents, strict receipt requirements for warranty claims, and refurbished replacements for clearly defective units. Strongly recommended: buy from Costco or Amazon for return protection.
Community
Smallest community of the major brands — Reddit r/Jackery has ~2,000 members. YouTube presence is solid due to brand recognition.
App experience
Rated 2.3-3.3/5 iOS and Android — the weakest app experience of the major brands. Multiple confusing apps (Jackery app vs Jackery Home) and mandatory login even offline.
Unique strength
Highest brand recognition and widest retail distribution (Costco, Home Depot, Best Buy, Amazon). The "Toyota" of power stations — dependable, proven, wide availability. Innovative form factors like the Solar Gazebo and Solar Mars Bot.
Worth knowing
A couple of older models still ship NMC chemistry with a shorter rated lifespan, so check the cycle rating on the specific unit — though most of the current line has moved to LFP. Generally perceived as overpriced for the specs offered compared to newer competitors. App experience is significantly behind rivals.
Analyst note
EcoFlow and Jackery are close competitors. Both have established support channels and growing ecosystems. Compare their specific warranty terms and community size for your peace of mind.

What Owners Report
Patterns from published owner reports and long-term reviews — every claim cited to its source below.
EcoFlow TITAN 5000 Plus
The Plus's record is EcoFlow's documentation aloneA1A5. Its rating label sets the battery's output at 7,200W inside a 10 kW totalA1, the split-phase outlet at 41.7 AA2 in a 14-50 patternA3, and the pack at 5,017.6Wh, shared across the TITAN 5000 modelsA7, while EcoFlow's display image carries the 8.00 kW charging figureA5. Our arithmetic on the pack voltage points to LFP cellsA13.
“"Total Output: 10 kW Max (7200W for discharge only)" — the battery delivers 7,200 W, the same as the TITAN 5000; the 10 kW total includes grid pass-through.”
Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus
Reviews of the Jackery describe a battery that's manageable for its classB2B0: about 77 lbs, on built-in wheels with a pull handleB2, with a 4.5-out-of-5 rating on AmazonB4. Our research found the coverage strong and mostly positiveB0, and nothing in that record argues against it for 120 V duty.

“X-Fusion 2.0: solar powers the home first, then charges TITAN for after dark; at peak rates TITAN runs the home on stored energy, and working with the grid through the main panel it can power loads beyond the backed-up circuits.”

Who Should Buy Which
Buy the TITAN 5000 Plus if you…
- →You want the battery permanently in line on a big 240 V circuit, passing grid power through a 14-50-pattern outlet rated 41.7 AA2A3 and covering 7,200W from the pack when the grid dropsA1.
- →You're building a multi-pack, solar-heavy system toward 30,105.6WhA8 and want the 8 kW charging path, twice the TITAN 5000'sA5.
- →You already know your must-run 240 V circuit needs more than a 30 A feed when the grid is up, and you want one box to sit in line on it.
- →Your permit office or insurer asks for listed storage: EcoFlow lists the TITAN 5000 Plus as UL 9540 certified and tested to UL 9540AA16.
Buy the HomePower 3600 Plus if you…
- →You're keeping a fridge, a freezer, the router and a CPAP alive through outages, all on 120 V, and want the battery laid out for plugging them straight in.
- →You'd rather spend $1,800 on solar panels than on a 240 V outlet you'll leave empty.
- →You want five AC outlets on the box itself, not two and a 14-50 you'd need an electrician to put to work.
The Bottom Line
Buy the Jackery unless you're building a wired 240 V system. The Plus is the bigger, faster-charging machine, but its signature 41.7 A only fills with the grid's help and its 8 kW path needs more than a wall outlet, so a household keeping 120 V essentials alive would be paying for hardware it never touches. Wiring a big split-phase circuit? Then the Plus is the right tool and the Jackery isn't in the running. Everyone else: take the Jackery and spend the difference on panels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers drawn from the spec record and cited owner research.
Does the EcoFlow TITAN 5000 Plus really put out 10 kW?
Not from its battery. The label reads 10 kW total but 7,200W for discharge only; the rest is grid power passing through. At 240 V, 7,200W is 30 A of the outlet's 41.7 A rating, so in an outage the Plus delivers what the TITAN 5000 does.
Which has more outlets, the TITAN 5000 Plus or the Jackery HomePower 3600 Plus?
The Jackery, on our records: five AC outlets and two USB-C ports rated up to 100W, against the Plus's two 120 V 20 A sockets and one 14-50-pattern outlet, and no USB ports. The Plus is built to feed a panel through its big outlet; the Jackery is built to have things plugged into it.
How fast does the TITAN 5000 Plus recharge?
EcoFlow's display image shows 8.00 kW in, which would refill the 5,017.6Wh pack in well under an hour. The label's own inputs are 8,000W of solar across two ports and 100–120 V at 15 A from the wall, about 1,800W, so reaching 8 kW takes a full solar array, not a wall outlet. The Jackery's solar input tops out at 1,000W.
Is the TITAN 5000 Plus overkill for backing up a fridge and lights?
Yes. Both run 120 V essentials easily, and the Plus's defining hardware, the 41.7 A split-phase outlet and the 8 kW charging path, does nothing for a refrigerator. The Jackery handles that list for $1,800 less. The Plus's bigger pack does last longer, so if your outages run several nights, weigh that before deciding.
What's the difference between the TITAN 5000 Plus and the regular TITAN 5000?
Same 5,017.6Wh pack, same chassis. The Plus swaps the 30 A split-phase outlet for a 41.7 A one and doubles the charging path to 8 kW from 4.00 kW; from the battery, both deliver 7,200W.
What does the TITAN 5000 Plus add beyond the spec sheet?
EcoFlow lists UL 9540 certification and UL 9540A testing, and sells the Plus with a factory pre-wired Smart Home Panel 10 that gives app control of 10 circuits. It also lists AC coupling with compatible existing rooftop solar, which needs that panel and a CT sensor. EcoFlow says X-Fusion 2.0 lets solar power the home first and the battery cover peak-rate hours, and X-Boost 2.0 gives the Plus up to 5 kW on each 120 V leg. OASIS 3.0, which learns household habits and forecasts solar up to 3 days ahead, is marked a subscription feature in the EcoFlow app.
