Quick answers

Is the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 better than the Oupes Mega 2 Pro?: Oupes Mega 2 Pro leads by 14 points overall.
Which has more usable capacity, the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 or Oupes Mega 2 Pro?: The Oupes Mega 2 Pro, by 435 Wh — 1,306 Wh versus 1,741 Wh, a 33% advantage. At a 60 W load that is roughly 7.3 extra hours before the battery is empty. Both figures are estimated AC-delivered energy, not the nameplate battery rating — the watt-hours that actually reach your devices, which is always less than the number on the box.
Which has more AC output, the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 or Oupes Mega 2 Pro?: The Oupes Mega 2 Pro: 2,000 W versus 2,500 W continuous. That gap matters only if a load sits between the two numbers — below 2,000 W both run it, above 2,500 W neither does. Surge headroom follows the same order: 4,000 W against 3,800 W, and surge is what decides whether a compressor or pump actually starts.
How does runtime compare between the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 and Oupes Mega 2 Pro?: On the same sourced load — a refrigerator (full-size) — the Oupes Mega 2 Pro runs longer: 27.6 hours against 20.7. These are planning estimates from each model's AC-delivered capacity, not stopwatch tests; real duty cycle and temperature move them.
Which is lighter, the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 or Oupes Mega 2 Pro?: The Jackery Explorer 1500 v2, by 7.6 kg (14.5 kg versus 22.1 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 Oupes Mega 2 Pro for home backup; the Jackery Explorer 1500 v2 for camping & rv. They split, so the honest answer depends on which of those you are actually buying for.
