How long will a VTOMAN FlashSpeed 1500 run a heated clothes airer?
About 3.6 hours — 3 h 37 min typically, from 3 h 23 min in the worst case to 3 h 49 min at best. That assumes a heated clothes airer pulling 300 W continuously, plus the station's 12 W AC mains socket overhead — 312 W in total out of 1,125 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.
The numbers
| Setup | Average draw | Cautious | Typical | Best case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × heated clothes airer, UK 230 V | 312 W | 3 h 23 min | 3 h 37 min | 3 h 49 min |
| 2 × heated clothes airer, UK 230 V | 612 W | 1 h 44 min | 1 h 50 min | 1 h 57 min |
| 1 × heated clothes airer, US 120 V | 312 W | 3 h 23 min | 3 h 37 min | 3 h 49 min |
- 0.5 nights of eight hours, or 0.15 days of continuous running.
- Usable energy: 1,125 Wh of the 1,548 Wh on the box, after chemistry, inverter losses and the reserve.
- To keep it going for a full 24 hours you would need about 10,303 Wh of rated capacity — 6.7× this station.
- Start-up: the heated clothes airer asks for 300 W at switch-on against this station's 3,000 W peak — comfortable.
