At a Glance

This comparison targets buyers weighing raw power and device coverage against longevity and portability. The Yeti 1500X delivers 2000W of running power and a 1516 Wh battery, giving it a clear edge in capacity and output over the Jump 1500X's 1500W and 828 Wh.

That advantage shows up in real-world testing: the Yeti powers 43 of 53 tested devices compared to 33 for the VTOMAN, earning a compatibility score of 82.5 versus 61. Solar recharging is also faster on the Yeti, topping out at 600W input for a roughly 5.4-hour full charge.

The tradeoff is meaningful, though. The Jump 1500X uses LFP chemistry rated for 3000 cycles, six times the Yeti's 500-cycle NMC lifespan, and it weighs nearly 10 pounds less while adding built-in UPS functionality for always-on home backup.
