It will power anything under 500 watts, but who's to say if it will power it for 5 hours, or 5 seconds. These things need to list their watt hours.

I would say it would power everything but your AC. AC draws a significant amount of power (in the thousand watt range). I can find no mention of battery life in AH, KWH, VAH, or any other standard measurement of battery life. I can't find anything in a google search either.

I doubt this would last 10 hours for the full PC system. If the computer and things needed just 1 amp at 120V, I'd bet this battery would not last 2 hours since I'm pretty sure it has a 18 amp-hour battery (hinting it'll supply 18 amps for 1 hour, or 9 amps for 2 hours, etc and for the inverter to put out 1 amp at 120V means it pulls 10 amps at 12V off the battery). So this can give you some power, but not for that long. Also I checked my B&W; laser printer and it pulls 5 amps while warming up the toner, so that's 600 watts that will overload the inverter, so that won't work.

Depending on computer settings, this answer can vary. I seem to get about 3 hours of constant use on my laptop when unplugged from a power source.

Depends on the volume you want to achieve, and how long you plan to run it. I would say it would work fine for a couple hours at 70-80% power.

"average size fan" does not describe the juice each fan needs to run. The 350 runs a video camera I have for over 10 hours as well as charging my cell phone and dropped one bar on the meter. I do mostly have energy conserving electronics, but my laptop is a power sucker and ran down the charge to the last bar in the same time period. Depending on how much juice your fans suck, you might want to consider the new 1250 they have come out with. Also these 350's can be linked together for more power longer. I have now forgotten how long one of these will power a mini refrigerator, I believe it was 5 hours, so I am thinks most fans would fall into that range.

This is AC only and there is no battery inside. You could use a small UPS for computers like you can get at an office supply store and likely run it for a few hours. The specs say less than 50W so it is on par with a laptop.

I had it over-loaded with christmas lights for a float. At least 900 watts, likely more and all of it continuous load, not surge. We pulled that float all around town and probably got 3.5 hours out of it (maybe more) before I had to refill. If you ran it with a 700 or 800 watt load and didn't get at least 4 or 5 hours, I'd be suprised. Having said that, we did this 9 and a half months ago so the details may be a little fuzzy... But I honestly was very suprised how well this little genny ran. I actually expected it to fail due to how long we were running it with that heavy of a load. I wouldn't try that heavy a load for that long if I was using this as a home power source. Remember you are getting this guy for under a hundo...

Yes. This is usually used for just computers, stereos, or tvs. It protects from surges and conditions the power supply. It also allows you time to save your work and shut down the computer safely. Depending on how many items are plugged into it, it can allow you 10-25 minutes of power.

It all depends on what kind of load your putting on the raspberry pi, also depends if you overclocked it or not... on idle I can't see it lasting more than a day. The powerbank is meant for giving your device that extra push, not as a main power source.

Using programs with high PC usage such as video games the battery can last over an hour. Playing DVDs it will last several hours and light use it could last all day. I received two batteries with my computer.

Bill, I cannot answer this. How much power does it draw? How long does it need to power it before you would consider it viable? Sorry.

I would say yes based on a hundred watts per computer. So that would be 10 amps total. I assume this would be for over night charging or a class setting.

im not sure exactly because i plug it in and do other things.. under 10 minutes..

I will charge mine and find out. I would say a few hours best guess. The fans don't seem very demanding but I'll let you know.

I don't know about yours as I have an HP HDX16. On normal, I can hold 3-4 hours depending on what's open, power saver a good 5+ hrs. I don't know if i answered your question but this is my current status; April 28, 2014.

Yes, this model 1500VAC / 900watts is capable of running them for several hours. It's all based upon the exact amount of current the three items consumes. I have three similar items and looking at their identification plates I can see that the total power consumed is is just under 2 amps therefore this UPS should allow them to operate more than 6 hours.

Probably more than enough. A laptop is typically somewhere around 90-140 watts. Charging a phone through the USB port will draw up to 2.1 amps @ 5 volts = 10.5 watts. I have no idea on the printer, but it's certainly less than the remaining 250 or so watts. Assuming it's an inkjet, that is, and not a laser printer.

thank you all for your response. I now understand what I need, at least 8 amps power supply ...enjoy your weekend!!!! :_)
