NOT YET.
This is a large portable power station with built-in solar panels that stores enough energy to run your home for about two weeks during an outage. It outputs 7200W of power at both 120V and 240V, so it can handle major appliances like air conditioners and water heaters, and it comes with six 85W solar panels to recharge itself.

The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- It weighs 145 pounds and is designed to stay in one place rather than move around, so it works best as a stationary backup system for your home or as a semi-permanent RV setup.
- The battery uses LiFePO4 cells rated to handle daily charging cycles for up to 11 years, which is longer than typical lithium batteries.
- You can expand the system up to 60kWh total capacity by adding more batteries, though that requires additional purchases and setup.
As of Aug 31, the Jackery Solar Generator 5000 Plus with 500W(85Wx6) isn't at a good price yet at $3909 — versus a $3803.79 typical price and a $3399 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
