Air conditioners, pressure washers, and compressors draw a very high surge of power at startup, so please note the following when using them with a portable power station.
Even if the rated power is within the unit’s output range, the startup surge (often 3–7 times higher) may exceed the limit and trigger protection, causing an error or shutdown.
When using multiple devices, make sure the total load and combined startup surges do not exceed the rated output.
For safe and stable operation, we recommend:
-Checking both rated and startup power of your devices
-Using a high-output model with sufficient surge capacity
-Operating high-power appliances one at a time whenever possible
This will help ensure more reliable performance.
Can this portable power station run my air conditioner, refrigerator, or water pump?
