Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between the “600 v2” and the “600 Plus”?
The 600 v2 is the “lightweight” version (14.1 lbs) with a 500W inverter and 640Wh capacity. The 600 Plus is slightly heavier (16.1 lbs), has a more powerful 800W inverter, and supports add-on battery packs. Choose the v2 for portability; choose the Plus if you need to run higher-wattage appliances like blenders.
Q2: Can it run a CPAP machine?
Yes. With 640Wh of capacity, it can run a standard CPAP machine for 2-4 nights (depending on pressure settings and if the humidifier/heated hose is turned off).
Q3: Does it work with the Jackery SolarSaga 100W?
Yes. It works perfectly with the SolarSaga 100W or 200W panels. Note that the Explorer 600 v2 uses the modern DC8020 connector, so if you have an older panel with the 8mm (DC7909) connector, you will need an adapter.
Q4: Can I use it as a UPS for my computer?
Yes. It supports pass-through charging and has a switchover time of less than 20ms, which is fast enough to keep most desktop computers and monitors running without rebooting during a blackout.
Q5: Is it waterproof?
No. The Explorer 600 v2 is not waterproof. Please keep it dry and away from rain or heavy moisture.
