The most stored energy per dollar we list on 120 V: 3.6 kWh and a 7,200 W start-up peak. No 240 V, so not for a well pump.

† Flagged on this page: chemistry. Read from retailers or reviews, not yet on Jackery's own spec sheet.
Yes. It covers a refrigerator's start-up peak, and an ENERGY STAR fridge alone would run for about 3.0 days on a full charge, battery only.
Not through your wiring on its own: it has no 240 V output. Plug essentials into it directly, or connect a few 120 V circuits through a transfer switch installed by an electrician.
With panels at its 1.0 kW solar limit, expect roughly 3.6 kWh back on a clear day (our clear-day solar curve, the same one the planner uses), so about 100% of the battery.
