Runtime for common appliances
Hours = 3,840 Wh × 100% usable × 85% efficiency ÷ (the appliance's watts), one appliance at a time, from full. Basis: Jackery's published 0.85 runtime factor; 100% of capacity usable (the station's own cutoff), an example since the maker doesn't publish it. The output check compares the station's 6,000 W output with the appliance's peak running draw (a fridge's defrost heater counts) and its 9,000 W surge with the start-up draw.

CPAP nights
Medical equipment
A power station is not a medical backup system, and these are planning estimates. Ask your device maker or equipment supplier how to run your CPAP from battery power, and keep a plan for longer outages. What to check first.
| AirSense setup | Draw, W | Nights |
|---|---|---|
| No humidifier, SlimLine tubing | 11.2 | 36.6 |
| Humidifier at 4, SlimLine tubing | 27.6 | 14.8 |

AirSense 10 draw is ResMed's battery-guide figure in amps at 12 V DC × 12 (ResMed battery guide). Nights = usable energy ÷ (draw) ÷ 8 hours. Other pressures and machines: CPAP calculator.
Sump pumps
Start-up allows 3 × running watts, the top of Whirlpool's two-to-three-times range for motors. The example storm pace is 6 cycles an hour of 15 seconds each; time your own pump during rain.
| Pump | Running, W | Start-up, W | Pumping nonstop | At 6 cycles an hour | Check |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zoeller M53, 3/10 HP | 1,116 | 3,346 | 2.9 h | 117 h (4.9 days) | Runs it |
| Zoeller M98, 1/2 HP | 1,081 | 3,243 | 3 h | 121 h (5 days) | Runs it |
| Superior Pump 92341, 1/3 HP | 492 | 1,476 | 6.6 h | 265 h (11.1 days) | Runs it |
| Wayne CDU790, 1/3 HP | 1,140 | 3,420 | 2.9 h | 115 h (4.8 days) | Runs it |
| Wayne CDU980E, 3/4 HP | 1,176 | 3,528 | 2.8 h | 111 h (4.6 days) | Runs it |
Running watts are each pump's rated amps × volts, so they err high. Sump pump calculator.
Charge time and solar refill
| Method | Time | Maker's figure |
|---|---|---|
| Wall outlet, standard | 2.9 h est. | AC input 120 V, 15 A max; AC input power (charging) 1,800 W max |
| Wall outlet, fastest mode | none listed | No faster mode listed |
| Car's 12 V socket | not listed | Car charging input not listed |
"est." = worked out from input watts × 0.74 (wall) or 0.89 (car), the medians makers' own watts-and-time figures imply. See Methods.
