Home Power Facts Power station runtime calculator
Pick what you need to keep running. The table shows which power stations can run all of it at once, and for how long on one charge.
Results for: Sump pump (1/2 hp)
Yes, 13 of the 15 power stations we track can run a sump pump (1/2 hp); the smallest that can is the DJI Power 1000. Expect about 0.8 h (DJI Power 1000) to 3.1 h (Anker SOLIX F3800) on a full charge.
Combined average draw: 925 W.

How these runtimes are calculated: runtime = usable capacity ÷ average draw of 925 W (the running draw, assumed on the whole time). Usable capacity is an independent test's measured figure, or 80% of rated capacity where none exists, marked "(est.)". A model must also carry the running watts continuously and the startup peak within its surge rating. The same formula applies to every model; see the methodology.
