ENERGY STAR lists 49.43 pints/day, integrated energy factor 2.01 L/kWh, and 520 kWh/year. Operating draw at the rated test condition is (49.43 × 0.473176 L/pint ÷ 24 h) ÷ 2.01 L/kWh × 1,000 = 485 W. That is the draw while it is removing water at the rated rate, not a whole-year average. Startup watts are not published.

Questions

What number does Willrun compare to the inverter?

Running watts of 485 W must fit under continuous output, or under a resistive boost when this load is a simple heater. Startup watts were not published.

How is runtime calculated?

Usable watt-hours (capacity × 0.85) divided by 485 W. No duty cycle is applied beyond the stored average.

Where did this come from?
