Step 1: Check The Started And Rated Wattage Of The Crockpot
The wattage required to start the device, lasting for a few seconds, is known as the surge wattage. Meanwhile, the rated wattage of an appliance is required to keep it running for some time. The rated and surge wattage are often mentioned on the device. If not, you may check the user manual. In case it isn’t mentioned in the user manual, you can see the voltage and ampere of the device and multiply them to get the wattage.
Step 2: Check the Started And Rated Output Wattage Of The Power Station
Similarly, solar power systems have their own rated and surge output wattage. The power station's capacity should be higher than that of the device you are charging. To select the right size, check the power station's started and rated output wattage. You can also look at the power station's model number to know the output wattage. For example, the Jackery Solar Generator 3000 Pro will have an output wattage of 3000 watts (not applicable to the “Plus” series).
Let’s say you want to run a crockpot (200W) with Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus Portable Power Station, then you can calculate the working hours using the formula given below:
Working Hours = Jackery Portable Power Station Capacity in Wh × 0.85 / Operating Wattage of Crockpot
Working Hours = 1264Wh × 0.85 / 200W = 5.4 hours.
Note: While charging the devices, some power loss occurs; hence, multiplied by 0.85.
