Quick answers

Is the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 better than the Jackery Explorer 300 Plus?: Bluetti Elite 30 V2 leads by 9 points overall.
Which has more usable capacity, the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 or Jackery Explorer 300 Plus?: Neither, in any way you would notice: 245 Wh against 253 Wh is a 3.3% gap, which is smaller than the swing you get from running the same load on a cold morning. Treat them as the same size and decide on output, weight, or today's price instead. Both figures are estimated AC-delivered energy, not the nameplate battery rating — the watt-hours that actually reach your devices.
Which has more AC output, the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 or Jackery Explorer 300 Plus?: The Bluetti Elite 30 V2: 600 W versus 300 W continuous. That gap matters only if a load sits between the two numbers — below 300 W both run it, above 600 W neither does. Neither model publishes a surge figure we can source, so startup capability is unresolved here — check it before planning around a motor or compressor load.
How does runtime compare between the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 and Jackery Explorer 300 Plus?: They run within 3.3% of each other on the same load — about 3.9 hours each on a refrigerator (full-size). Runtime will not separate these two; the deciding factor is somewhere else.
Which is lighter, the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 or Jackery Explorer 300 Plus?: The Jackery Explorer 300 Plus, by 0.5 kg (3.8 kg versus 4.3 kg). Both weights are manufacturer figures for the bare unit; cables and a solar panel add to whatever you actually carry.
Which model should I buy for my use case?: On the sub-scores that describe each use case: the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 for home backup; the Jackery Explorer 300 Plus for camping & rv. They split, so the honest answer depends on which of those you are actually buying for.
