Assumes everything runs nonstop. Fridge: 24-hour average; other figures: typical, median or maximum draw. Every figure and its source is in the power station calculator.

How this site works. Every guide starts with the answer, shows the math, cites its sources and says what we checked and what we didn't. We have not tested the products ourselves. Switch on Outage mode at the top if you are reading by flashlight.
