How long will it run a refrigerator?

A typical full-size fridge draws roughly 1–2 kWh per day, so expect under a day on the 1,024Wh battery. A small, efficient fridge can last longer.

Can it power a space heater?

A 1,500W heater is within the 2,000W output, but it will drain the battery in well under an hour. It is better suited to short bursts than all-night heating.

How does it compare with the original C1000?

The Gen 2 keeps the same 1,024Wh capacity and 2,000W output but adds faster charging and updated battery management. If you already own the first C1000, the upgrade is mainly about recharge speed.

Does it work with solar panels?

Yes, it accepts solar input through its DC port. Panel wattage and sunlight determine recharge time, and a full recharge from panels takes considerably longer than from a wall outlet.

Anything drawing more than 2,000W continuous, such as a central AC unit, electric dryer or large welder, will overload it. Check the startup surge of motor-driven appliances before plugging them in.
