How long will a 1000Wh power station run a LED Strip (1m, 12W)?

A 1000Wh power station runs a led strip (1m, 12w) (about 12W) for roughly 3.0 days, after accounting for typical inverter and battery losses (~85% usable).

How long will a 2000Wh power station run a LED Strip (1m, 12W)?

A 2000Wh power station runs a led strip (1m, 12w) (about 12W) for roughly 5.9 days, after accounting for typical inverter and battery losses (~85% usable).

How is LED Strip (1m, 12W) runtime calculated?

Runtime = usable battery energy ÷ power draw. Usable energy is about 85% of the rated capacity after depth-of-discharge and inverter losses. A LED Strip (1m, 12W) draws about 12W.

How long will a portable power station run a LED Strip (1m, 12W)?

A LED Strip (1m, 12W) draws about 12W. The table below shows how long common power station sizes will run it, after accounting for real-world inverter and battery losses (about 85% of rated capacity is usable).

Power Station	Continuous
300 Wh	21 h
500 Wh	1.5 days
1,000 Wh	3.0 days
1,500 Wh	4.4 days
2,000 Wh	5.9 days
3,000 Wh	8.9 days
5,000 Wh	14.8 days

Estimates use ~85% usable capacity (depth of discharge + inverter losses). Actual runtime varies with temperature, load variation, and device efficiency.
