Is my Jackery defective? --- The starting power of inductive electrical appliances

Products that operate with electric motors, such as microwave ovens, hair dryers, refrigerators, air conditioning compressors, and water pumps, experience a surge in power when they start. The starting power needed is typically 3 to 7 times greater than the rated power, which should be considered when determining power requirements. For instance, if the Jackery Explorer 240 is used with a refrigerator that has a rated power of 150W, it may shut down automatically. This is because the refrigerator is an inductive load device, which means it has a peak power or starting power that is several times higher than its rated power (3 to 7 times). Therefore, when the rated power of the refrigerator is 150W, its peak power or starting power can exceed 450W. If this exceeds the load limit, the circuit will automatically adjust to lower the output power or activate a protection device to cut off the power supply.
