Our verdict
The Jackery's case is longevity, not price: a 4,000-cycle rating to 70% retained capacity is longer than most rivals here claim, and 1,070Wh is the most capacity in this comparison. At MSRP it costs more than the EcoFlow Delta 2 for less continuous output, so this is worth the premium specifically if you plan to run the station hard for years, not for the spec sheet on day one.

Strengths and limitations
Pros
- 1,070Wh is the largest capacity in this comparison
- Rated for 4,000 charge cycles at 70% retained capacity — a longer rated lifespan than most rivals here
- Full 0-100% AC recharge in about an hour
Cons
- At $599 MSRP it costs meaningfully more than the EcoFlow Delta 2's similar capacity and higher output
- At 10.8 kg it's not a grab-and-go station
- Frequently discounted, so check the current price before assuming the MSRP applies
