Jackery can power your electric mini steamers during camping, off-roading, or outdoor activities. The Jackery Solar Generators offer a reliable and eco-friendly power supply to charge your mini steamer whenever you need to cook while enjoying outdoor adventures, even at night.
This guide will help you learn how much electricity is consumed by electric mini steamers, discover which Jackery model is the right size for supplying power to your mini steamer for cooking and other essential devices, and select the right size for your power needs.
How Much Electricity Does Mini Steamer Use?
A mini steamer uses around 350 watts of electricity per hour of continuous use. However, the size of the steamer, electricity rate, voltage, cooking frequency, and cooking time. On average, a mini steamer can consume around 200-400 watts of electricity over a while.
Can Jackery Power Mini Steamer?
Jackery can power mini steamers, but the electricity consumption of the appliance depends on several factors, such as size, efficiency, and the number of hours consumed. Only after you know the correct appliance wattage consumption of the mini steamer can you select the right size for the Jackery Portable Power Station.
Step 1: Check The Started And Rated Wattage Of Mini Steamer
The starting and rated wattage are usually mentioned on the appliance. If the starting and rated wattage are not mentioned in your mini steamer, you can check the user manual for them. However, if they are not given directly in the user manual, find the device’s voltage and ampere usage and multiply to get the wattage.
Step 2: Check the Started And Rated Output Wattage Of Jackery
Remember that the Jackery Portable Power Station's battery capacity should be greater than that of a mini steamer. Before selecting the proper size, the next step is to check the power station's rated and surge output. You can also recognize the rated output wattage by knowing the product model number (not applicable for the plus series). For example, the rated output wattage of the Jackery Solar Generator 1500 would be 1500 watts.
Let’s say you want to run a mini steamer (350W) with Jackery Explorer 500 Portable Power Station, then you can calculate the working hours using the formula given below:
Working Hours = Jackery Portable Power Station’s Capacity in Wh × 0.85 / Operating Wattage of Mini Steamer
Working Hours = 518Wh × 0.85 / 350W = 1.2 hours.
Here's a table showing the running time of different Jackery Portable Power Stations when they charge a microwave oven (350W).
Note: The operating wattage is considered 350W. The running time indicated in the table is just for your reference, and the actual time might differ.
