How long will a 1000Wh power station run a Security Camera (IP)?

A 1000Wh power station runs a security camera (ip) (about 8W) for roughly 4.4 days, after accounting for typical inverter and battery losses (~85% usable).

How long will a 2000Wh power station run a Security Camera (IP)?

A 2000Wh power station runs a security camera (ip) (about 8W) for roughly 8.9 days, after accounting for typical inverter and battery losses (~85% usable).

How is Security Camera (IP) 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 Security Camera (IP) draws about 8W.

How long will a portable power station run a Security Camera (IP)?

A Security Camera (IP) draws about 8W. 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	1.3 days
500 Wh	2.2 days
1,000 Wh	4.4 days
1,500 Wh	6.6 days
2,000 Wh	8.9 days
3,000 Wh	13.3 days
5,000 Wh	22.1 days

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