How long will a Pecron E2000LFP run LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs)?
A little over a day — 29 h 4 min typically, from 27 h 22 min in the worst case to 30 h 47 min at best. That assumes LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs) pulling 35 W continuously, plus the station's 13 W AC mains socket overhead — 48 W in total out of 1,395 usable watt-hours.
About a sixth of the same tree in old incandescent bulbs, and cool enough to touch.
