What will the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 run?
The Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 stores 1,536Wh with 2,000W of output (4,000W surge). Running one thing at a time, that's about 13 to 27 hours of a refrigerator, about 39 to 84 hours of a CPAP with the humidifier off and about 42 to 59 hours of Wi-Fi.
1,536 Wh and 2,000 W at under 32 lb, light for its class. The step up when 1 kWh won't last the night.

Runtime: 1,536Wh × 90% usable × 85% inverter efficiency ÷ (the average draw + about 10W the station uses itself), from Energy Star figures and makers' manuals. "Runs it?" checks its output and surge rating against the cautious running and starting figures on generator makers' and DTE Energy's charts. Plan on the low end.

Questions
Can the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 run a refrigerator?
Yes. It runs one for about 13 to 27 hours on its own, and its output and surge rating cover the cautious figures on generator makers' charts.
How long will the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 run a CPAP?
About 39 to 84 hours with the humidifier and heated tube off, or about 15 to 38 hours with them on, running nothing else. Running it from the 12V outlet through the CPAP maker's own converter avoids the inverter's losses, so it lasts longer than these figures.
Can the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 run a space heater?
Only briefly: a space heater on high draws up to about 1,500 watts, so it lasts about 1 to 2.5 hours. See how to stay warm without power for what works better.
