What will it run, and for how long?

Set how many of each item you want to run, then pick a power station. We estimate runtime using battery Wh × 0.85 ÷ watts.

Same items on every station we track

Surge matters: fridges, freezers, pumps and AC units need a quick burst of extra power to start, often several times their running watts. Make sure the station's surge (peak) rating covers it. Appliance figures are typical estimates based on ENERGY STAR and U.S. Department of Energy guidance; the label on your appliance is the best source. See the numbers we use.
