Panasonic lists power supply 120 V / 60 Hz, microwave output 1,100 W, and microwave power consumption 1,500 W. The station has to supply the 1,500 W input, not the 1,100 W cooking output. A separate startup surge is not published. X-Boost and Power Lifting are not applied, because those modes are described for simple heating loads and a microwave is an electronic supply.

Questions

What number does Willrun compare to the inverter?

Running watts of 1,500 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 1,500 W. The duty cycle is 1, derived from the source note, not assumed.

Where did this come from?

Panasonic lists power supply 120 V / 60 Hz, microwave output 1,100 W, and microwave power consumption 1,500 W. The station has to supply the 1,500 W input, not the 1,100 W cooking output. A separate startup surge is not published. X-Boost and Power Lifting are not applied, because those modes are described for simple heating loads and a microwave is an electronic supply.
