Backup That Lasts for 13 Days

A 5040Wh base capacity, expandable up to 60kWh with additional battery packs — enough to keep a home running through an extended outage, not just overnight.
More Power From the Sun
Solar Charging

Protect Your Essential Circuits Smartly
Smart Transfer Switch

Quieter Than Gas Generators
~30dB Operation
Runs at roughly 30dB — about as quiet as a library — so it can operate indoors or overnight without disturbing the household.
Invest in Saving Up to $11,800
Smart Charging Schedules
Charge during off-peak hours and draw on stored power when utility rates are highest, cutting energy costs over the system's lifetime.
11 Years of Reliable Power
ChargeShield 2.0
Less than $1 a day for up to 11 years of peace of mind. ChargeShield™ 2.0 combines 62 BMS protection algorithms, dual cell protection, and AI variable charging speed on durable LiFePO₄ cells rated to 4,000 cycles — ceramic cells tested to 302°F with strong cold-weather performance to -4°F.
Outages Won't Interrupt a Thing
True 0ms UPS
True 0ms online UPS switching (under 20ms in standard UPS mode) keeps computers, appliances, and critical devices running without interruption during a grid failure.
Compact for Its Capacity
Built to Move
At 134.5 lbs, the Explorer 5000 Plus packs a massive 5kWh of capacity into a body sized like a typical 3kWh unit, so it can move from garage to living room to patio with one-button start and plug-and-play setup — no dolly, no second person required.
