Ilume Beacon 3K Home Backup Power Station
3,072 Wh of LFP-cell home backup power. Runs your fridge for 28 hours on a single charge. Built to last 3,500 cycles — roughly 10 years of daily use.
The Beacon 3K is a 3,600W continuous (4,500W surge) home backup power station built around LiFePO4 chemistry — the same battery chemistry used in Tesla Megapacks and grid-scale storage. Unlike NMC batteries that degrade quickly and pose thermal-runaway risk, LFP cells stay safe and hold capacity for a decade of daily cycling.
Why we built the Beacon 3K
- The Freezer Guarantee. If your food spoils during a qualifying outage in your first year, we'll reimburse up to $500 of your grocery bill — with a receipt. No competitor offers this.
- 2-hour AC recharge. 1,800W input gets you from empty to full faster than any flagship competitor. Charge it the night before a storm, not three days before.
- 1,600W solar input. 4× the solar input of the Jackery HomePower 3000. A 600W panel array reaches full charge in ~5 hours.
- Modular expansion to 9,216 Wh. Add Expansion Packs without replacing the base unit — solves the "I should have bought bigger" regret.
- 8–20 ms UPS switchover. Protects CPAP machines, medical devices, desktops, and internet gear from outage-induced data loss.
- 5-year warranty. Industry-leading for the category. Cells rated to 3,500 cycles at 80% capacity.
- Works in a blackout — no phone required. All core functions are physical buttons. The optional Pecron app is a power-user tool, not a gate.
