A lower-cost backup that keeps the essentials running — fridge, lights, furnace fan, phones — when the grid goes down.

Full model: EcoFlow TITAN 5000 Whole Home Power Battery Backup 5-30kWh
EcoFlow’s new whole-home battery (orders opened Nov 3, 2026) — 240V power for central AC and well pumps at a lower entry price than the Ultra X.
Best if:
You want true 240V whole-home backup that runs a 3-ton AC without a soft starter, and room to grow from 5 kWh to 30 kWh with extra TITAN batteries and the Smart Home Panel 10.
Whole-home–oriented modular backup for bigger continuous loads and longer outages.
Best if:
You want a modular inverter + battery stack that can grow with expansion hardware — higher output and capacity than a single portable brick — including optional fast switchover with EcoFlow’s Smart Home Panel ecosystem.
