EcoFlow vs Jackery vs BLUETTI vs Anker SOLIX
No brand wins at every size. Around 1 kWh, the BLUETTI AC180 costs least, the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus has the highest cycle rating, the fastest switchover and the most solar input, and the Anker SOLIX C1000X sits between them on most counts. At 3 kWh and up, the Jackery HomePower 3000 costs less per kWh, and the EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 is the one to get if you need 240 V.

We haven't tested these units ourselves. Specs come from each maker's product page and spec sheet, and every price shows the store and the day we checked it. We compare the models we track, not each brand's whole lineup. Links go to the maker's store, and we don't earn anything from them. How we work.
Five models from four brands
| Model | Battery | Output | Price | Per kWh | Cycles to 80% | Switchover | Solar input | Expands to | 240 V | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus (opens in a new tab) | 1,024 Wh | 1,800 W (3,600 W surge) | $719 EcoFlow price, Oct 27, 2026 | $702 | 4,000 | 10 ms | 1,000 W | 5,000 Wh | No | 27.6 lb |
| EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 (opens in a new tab) | 4,096 Wh | 4,000 W (8,000 W surge) | $2,799 EcoFlow price, Oct 27, 2026 | $683 | 4,000 | 10 ms | 2,600 W | 12 kWh | Yes | 113.5 lb |
| Jackery HomePower 3000 (opens in a new tab) | 3,072 Wh | 3,600 W (7,200 W surge) | $1,349 Jackery price, Oct 27, 2026 | $439 | 4,000 to 70% | 20 ms | 1,000 W | Not listed | No | 59.52 lb |
| BLUETTI AC180 (opens in a new tab) | 1,152 Wh | 1,800 W | $499 BLUETTI price, Oct 27, 2026 | $433 | 3,500 | Not published | 500 W | 4,224 Wh | No | 35.3 lb |
| Anker SOLIX C1000X (opens in a new tab) | 1,056 Wh | 1,800 W (2,400 W surge) | $600 Anker SOLIX price, Oct 26, 2026 | $568 | 3,000 | 20 ms | 600 W | 2,112 Wh | No | 28.44 lb |
Cycles are the maker's rating to 80% of capacity, except Jackery's, which is to 70%. Switchover is how fast the outlets take over when the grid drops, per the maker. "Expands to" is the most capacity with the maker's add-on batteries.
Around 1 kWh: EcoFlow vs BLUETTI vs Anker SOLIX
These three hold about the same energy, enough to run a fridge, a freezer, the Wi-Fi and a CPAP for roughly 6.4 hours to 7.2 hours. All three are rated at 1,800 W continuous and use LFP cells.
The BLUETTI AC180 costs the least, $499, and the least per kilowatt-hour ($433). It's also the heaviest at 35.3 lb, takes the least solar (500 W), and BLUETTI doesn't publish its switchover time on the product page.
The EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus costs the most of the three, $719, and gives the most for it on paper: 4,000 cycles, a 10 ms switchover, 1,000 W of solar input and expansion to 5,000 Wh. EcoFlow says it refills from the wall in under an hour.
The Anker SOLIX C1000X lands in the middle on price ($600) but has the lowest cycle rating (3,000) and the smallest expansion (2,112 Wh). Its 20 ms switchover is slower than EcoFlow's but, unlike BLUETTI's, it's published.
We don't track a Jackery near 1 kWh yet. The Explorer 2000 v2, at about 2 kWh, is in our cost data, but on October 27, 2026 Jackery's store page said it wasn't available to buy, so it isn't compared here.
3 kWh and up: Jackery vs EcoFlow
The Jackery HomePower 3000 holds 3,072 Wh for $1,349, or $439 per kilowatt-hour. The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 holds 4,096 Wh for $2,799, or $683 per kilowatt-hour. On the essentials list they last about 19 hours and 25 hours.
What the extra money buys with EcoFlow is 240 V outlets, which a well pump, central air or a 240 V transfer switch needs, 2,600 W of solar input against 1,000 W, and expansion to 12 kWh with add-on batteries. It also weighs 113.5 lb and rolls on wheels; the Jackery is 59.52 lb. If 120 V covers what you need to run, the Jackery is the better value.
Where the brands differ on paper
Cycle ratings
EcoFlow, BLUETTI and Anker SOLIX rate their cells to 80% of capacity. Jackery rates the HomePower 3000 at 4,000 cycles to 70%, a lower bar, so its number can't be set against the others. For backup that sits idle most of the year, any of these ratings is far more cycles than outages will use.
Warranty
All four give five years on these models. Jackery's five years applies only when you buy from jackery.com; bought elsewhere, the HomePower 3000 gets three.
Sale prices
EcoFlow and Jackery showed sale prices against a higher list price on the day we checked (DELTA 3 Plus $719, list $799; DELTA Pro 3 $2,799, list $3,299; HomePower 3000 $1,349, list $1,499). Anker auto-applied a limited-time $130 code at checkout for the C1000X. Prices on all four brands move with promotions, so check the date next to each one.
Which brand to buy
- For the lowest price at about 1 kWh, get the BLUETTI AC180.
- For computers, quick recharges or solar at about 1 kWh, get the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus.
- For the most battery for the money at 3 kWh, get the Jackery HomePower 3000, from Jackery's own store so the full warranty applies.
- If you need 240 V or room to grow past 10 kWh, get the EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3.
Size matters more than brand, so start with what you need running and for how long in the runtime calculator, and pick from the units that cover it. Our best power stations for home backup page ranks these same models, and the solar generator picks price them with panels.
