Two ~2 kWh LiFePO4 suitcases. Anker’s C2000 Gen 2 is expandable and a touch lighter on paper. Jackery’s Explorer 2000 v2 is the sealed, already-shipping SKU already on this site — no extra-battery path.

Expandable vs sealed
Anker lists pairing with a BP2000 Gen 2 expansion battery to about 4096 Wh (marketed as 4 kWh), or higher with BP3000. Jackery’s Explorer 2000 v2 FAQ on the product page we used says it is not expandable. If you might want a second night later, that is the fork.
Inverter and solar
Anker: 2400 W rated / 4000 W peak, 800 W solar. Jackery: 2200 W rated / 4400 W surge, 400 W solar. Anker wins solar headroom on paper; Jackery’s surge number is higher. Modes have limits — read the manuals.
SKU warning
Do not confuse C2000 Gen 2 with older Anker “F2000” / different Gen labels on marketplaces. Match the 2048 Wh figure and the expansion port story to the datasheet.
