How long will a power station run a well pump?

Catalog well water pump is 750W. A well pump runs in short cycles when you open a tap. Hours below are at 750W continuous.

Hours use usable watt-hours: nameplate Wh x 0.80 depth of discharge x 0.90 inverter efficiency. The 1.25 sizing buffer is for buying a new battery. It is not used for hours of a station you already own.

Catalog default is 2 hours a day of pump time. That is not a full day of household water. Check the inverter gate. Start current can exceed nameplate.

Only power stations Field Authority has signed appear here. Catalog SKUs without a lock-file row stay off this table.

Compressor start can exceed nameplate. This table uses continuous watts only. No unsigned surge number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a 500W station run a well pump?

Not if the inverter is below 750W continuous. The table marks those rows cannot run.

How long will a 3072Wh station run a 750W well pump?

If the inverter is at least 750W, usable watt-hours are 3072 x 0.80 x 0.90, then divide by 750. That is about 2.9 hours of pump-on time.

Is that enough water for a day?

Maybe, if the pump only runs when you draw water. This page is pump-on hours, not gallons delivered. Pressure tanks and well depth change the real duty.
