Jackery FridgeGuard is a slim backup battery developed specifically to keep refrigerators running during power outages. The unit measures 2.6 inches thick and houses a 1,024Wh battery that delivers up to 1,600W of compressor-ready power through a single 110V outlet. FridgeSafe Technology enables automatic switchover in under 10 milliseconds and incorporates Delay Start and surge protection to safeguard refrigerator compressors. A fully charged unit provides an estimated 15 hours of runtime, while an optional expansion battery increases total capacity to 2,048Wh for approximately 30 hours of operation.
The power station can be wall-mounted behind a refrigerator, positioned vertically beside it or placed horizontally on top to accommodate different kitchen layouts. Its battery cells are rated for 6,000 charge cycles and are designed to retain 70% capacity after up to 16 years of use. The system also supports charging and discharging in temperatures as low as -20°C, making it suitable for garages, cabins and other cold-weather installations.
