How long will an Anker SOLIX F3000 run a heated clothes airer?
About 7.1 hours — 7 h 4 min typically, from 6 h 39 min in the worst case to 7 h 29 min at best. That assumes a heated clothes airer pulling 300 W continuously, plus the station's 16 W AC mains socket overhead — 316 W in total out of 2,233 usable watt-hours.
No thermostat on most models, so it draws its full rating for as long as it is on — a cover over the load dries it faster and saves hours.
