Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus + Battery Pack 5000 Plus Kit (10,080Wh) Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus + Battery Pack 5000 Plus Kit (10,080Wh)
SKU: 60-505000-AU00012
- Included storage 10,080Wh LiFePO4
- AC output 7,200W total; outlet and mode limits apply
- Solar / switch Solar panels separate; switch separate
The Jackery Explorer 5000 Plus 10kWh kit pairs one Explorer 5000 Plus power station with one compatible Battery Pack 5000 Plus. Each holds 5,040Wh, giving the connected system 10,080Wh of rated battery capacity. This kit includes the power station; it is not a stand-alone expansion battery or Jackery's two-station Double Kit.
Output and charging
The Explorer 5000 Plus supplies up to 7,200W AC output and supports 120V and 240V AC connections. Its 4,000W figure is the maximum high-voltage solar input at 135–450V DC, not its AC output rating. Low-voltage solar input is separate: up to 600W on one DC port or 1,200W across both. Check the full array voltage, current and connector arrangement against Jackery's instructions before connecting panels.
What is included
One Explorer 5000 Plus power station, one Battery Pack 5000 Plus, one AC charging cable, one MC4 wrench, the station's user manual and one expansion cable are included. The expansion battery connects to the Explorer 5000 Plus; Jackery says the pack cannot charge devices on its own. Solar panels and a transfer switch are not part of this listing.
For backup planning
The station uses LiFePO4 cells, and Jackery rates the station and pack for 4,000 cycles to at least 70% capacity. The Explorer station weighs about 61kg (134.5lb); the separate battery pack weighs about 37kg (81.6lb). Jackery lists a five-year warranty for each component. AC charging time and solar recharge time depend on the connected configuration and available input; do not use the station-only 3.5-hour AC estimate or 1.7-hour high-voltage solar estimate as a guarantee for this expanded kit. See the Explorer 5000 Plus manual and Battery Pack 5000 Plus manual for setup, safety and port limits.

5000 Plus + battery: 10.08kWh — contents and buying guide
What’s included
1 × Explorer 5000 Plus station; 1 × AC charging cable; 1 × MC4 wrench; 1 × Battery Pack 5000 Plus; 1 × expansion cable; Manufacturer user manuals.
Solar panels are not included. Smart Transfer Switch is not included.
Capacity, output and the outlets you can use
This package includes 10,080Wh of nominal storage. Its single station supplies up to 7,200W total AC output; adding batteries increases stored energy, not this inverter rating. Each 120V outlet supports up to 2,400W, with a shared 3,600W limit for each pair. The NEMA L14-30R and 14-50 connections support 120/240V loads within the station’s overall rating.
Choose charging by the actual configuration
The two low-PV inputs accept 16–60V and up to 1,200W combined. The separate high-PV input accepts 135–450V and up to 4,000W. For a single unexpanded station, Jackery lists about 3.5 hours on AC and 8.5 hours with two 500X assemblies. The 1.7-hour claim uses a suitable 4,000W high-voltage array; it does not describe two portable 500X packages. Extra batteries increase the energy that must be replaced; these station-only estimates are not full-kit charge times.
Backup mode and cold-weather limits
Online UPS provides 0ms transfer only through the NEMA 5-20 outlets and is limited to 3,600W. Backup UPS switches within 20ms and limits wall-powered bypass to 12A at 120V. The NEMA L14-30R and 14-50 outlets cannot operate while the station uses its wall AC charging cable. Online UPS must be rechecked after restart. At 5–14°F (−15 to −10°C), maximum station output drops to 3,600W.
Battery expansion without changing inverter output
Each Battery Pack 5000 Plus adds 5,040Wh and works only with Explorer 5000 Plus. One station supports up to five packs, for 30,240Wh nominal total. The pack has no standalone AC or USB outlets. Use the supplied expansion cable, switch both units off before connection and allow at least 200mm between the station and pack. IP20 protection does not make the pack waterproof.
Size runtime from the load
Use nominal watt-hours to compare stored energy, then allow for conversion losses, reserve, temperature and standby draw. Jackery’s support lists 50W station standby consumption, which matters for small overnight loads. See the matching 5000 Plus expansion battery.
