Bluetti Apex 300

The most expandable Bluetti here — a single base unit already outputs 3,840W, and linking 2-3 units with up to 18 battery modules gets you to a genuine whole-home 58kWh system. Automotive-grade cells give it a 6,000-cycle rating, the best of any home-backup unit in this catalogue.

Jackery Explorer 3000 v2

Jackery's answer to the modular home-backup units, but as a single fixed-capacity 3kWh box rather than an expandable system — its selling point is being unusually light for the class. 3,600W (7,200W surge) comfortably runs a kettle plus other appliances at once.
