≈ 4.5 days (8h/day) · Safe motor start buffer (98.4% margin).
box fan running (110 W max) and start-up (200 W max) draw fit the Anker SOLIX F3800's 6,000 W continuous / 9,000 W surge ratings.
20-inch box fan running on low speed setting (50 W)
20-inch box fan running on medium speed setting (75 W)
High-velocity industrial air circulator on maximum speed (110 W)
≈ 4.5 days (8h/day)
System standby power: 25W (23.6% of total draw)
Provides 6× CEE 7/3 (230V), 1× IEC Commando (32A), 1× Commando (16A/32A) (120/240V 60Hz).
Pure sine wave inverter output. Safe for all standard household appliances.
Inductive motor/compressor load with 1.9× starting surge (motor inrush) (98.4% worst-case surge margin).
Wall AC fast charge at up to 1800W (120m to 80%, 150m to 100%).
Safe envelope verified: Starting surge (140W) remains comfortably below the 9000W surge trip line, with steady-state operation settling into the safe continuous zone at 75W.
About 36 hours on AC power, with the box fan averaging 75 W (20-inch box fan running on medium speed setting (75 W)). The Anker SOLIX F3800 then draws about 106 W from its battery, including 25 W for the inverter itself. Best case: about 49 hours (20-inch box fan running on low speed setting (50 W)). Worst case: about 27 hours (High-velocity industrial air circulator on maximum speed (110 W)). At 8 hours a day, that's about 4.5 days.
Yes. The box fan's start-up peak of about 140 W (up to 200 W) fits within the Anker SOLIX F3800's 9,000 W surge rating, with 98% headroom even in the worst case.
That simple division gives 51 hours, but the Anker SOLIX F3800's inverter draws about 25 W whenever its AC outlets are on. At this light load that's 24% of everything the battery supplies, and inverter conversion losses take a further share. The idle figure comes from Anker.
On wall power: about 120 minutes to 80% and 150 minutes to full (Anker figures). With its maximum 2,400 W of solar input connected, expect about 1,920 W in full sun, so a full recharge takes roughly 2.1 hours of full sun, so it can refill in a single day with 4 peak sun hours.
