Estimated AC runtime by device

Ranges use the low and high watt loads in our device data, from a full charge. They are planning estimates, not measured results for this model.

DeviceLoad while runningEstimated runtime
Wi-Fi router 8–20W 30h–47h
Laptop, charging and active 30–90W 9.5h–23h
Full-size fridge 150–250W · 35% duty cycle 9.8h–15h

For the fridge, the 1,200W startup assumption fits within this unit's 2,700W surge rating. Real fridge demand and cycling vary. A router may run longer from a compatible DC output, which this AC table does not model.

The specs that matter

  • Battery: 1,152Wh LiFePO4, with an estimated 979Wh usable through AC at a moderate load, before idle draw.
  • AC output: 1,800W continuous and 2,700W surge. Check the startup draw of motor loads.
  • Weight: 35.3 lb.
  • Cycle claim: Bluetti states 3,500 cycles to at least 80% capacity. That is a battery-life claim, not a runtime promise.

Where the estimate can miss

This model has no published AC idle-draw measurement, so the calculation uses 15W (est.). Idle draw matters most for a small load such as a router. Inverter efficiency is our class default. Temperature, battery age, output mode and the actual device load can all move the result.

The stated surge rating tells you what the inverter is designed to accept. It does not measure your fridge's startup spike. For essential equipment, measure the load and run a full-duration test.
