How long will a Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus run a video projector? (US 120 V)
Yes, it runs it 2.8 h
Includes this load’s 100% duty cycle and the station’s 22 W idle draw — not a label-wattage guess.

No start-up rail: this load has no locked rotor to publish an inrush for, so no start-up demand was checked.
Two numbers decide this, and readers use them interchangeably: watts are the ceiling on what the inverter holds at any instant, watt-hours are how much energy the battery holds. A machine can have plenty of one and not enough of the other.
The verdict is a calculation, not a lookup; the hours are a division, not the nameplate watt-hours. The working is in the evidence below.
Where those numbers come from
A blank is never left blank. A field we have found no figure for says so, and a field whose
sources disagree — two documents, or one document with itself — says that instead of picking
one.

Jackery publishes the coefficients but not this figure, so it is computed rather than copied.

BLUETTI Elite 30 V2 (US 120 V) reaches the same conclusion on a video projector at 600 W continuous, and it is $239. Cheaper is only cheaper when the answer is the same — this one is. See that pairing →
Will a Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus run a video projector?
Yes. 345 W of running draw against 2,000 W of continuous output — 17% of it. The verdict is computed from running watts, and inverter waveform — the working is in the evidence section above.
How long will a Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus run a video projector?
About 2.8 hours on a full charge. That divides a usable-capacity figure derived from Jackery's own published usable-capacity coefficient by this load's duty-weighted draw plus the machine's own 22 W idle draw — not the nameplate watt-hours divided by a label wattage, which is where the confident-looking 20–35% overstatements come from.
Can a Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus run a video projector and something else at the same time?
That depends on the something else, and the two numbers to check are on this page. This load takes 345 W of the 2,000 W available, leaving 1,655 W before the 82% line matters. The runtime calculator linked below takes a list of loads rather than one.
