Assumption: 150 W running × 52% duty = 78 W average. Your fridge's yellow EnergyGuide label: kWh per year ÷ 8.76 = average watts. 78 W is about 683 kWh a year.
Startup 600–1,200 W. 1,800 W continuous; 2,700 W Power Lifting mode for resistive loads.
| Scenario | Load | Hours |
|---|---|---|
| 150 W running, 52% duty | 78 W | 9 hours |
| Compressor at 60% | 90 W | 8 hours |
| Fridge + Wi-Fi | 98 W | 8 hours |
| Math | 1,152 Wh × 0.9 × 0.85 ÷ (78 W + 15 W) = 9 hours | 9 hours |
