How Long Will It Run

How long will a Dabbsson DBS2300 run a garden inflatable (christmas or halloween)?

A little over a day — 26 h 53 min typically, from 25 h 18 min in the worst case to 28 h 28 min at best. That assumes a garden inflatable (christmas or halloween) pulling 50 W continuously, plus the station's 13 W AC mains socket overhead — 63 W in total out of 1,693 usable watt-hours.

The fan runs the whole time it is standing up, so the hours it is on decide the cost.

  • 3.4 nights of eight hours, or 1.12 days of continuous running.
  • Usable energy: 1,693 Wh of the 2,330 Wh on the box, after chemistry, inverter losses and the reserve.
  • To keep it going for a full 24 hours you would need about 2,081 Wh of rated capacity — which this station has.
  • Start-up: the garden inflatable (christmas or halloween) asks for 50 W at switch-on against this station's 4,400 W peak — comfortable.
