| Battery Capacity | 1056Wh total | ~8Wh/hr | 898Wh usable |
| Inverter Type | Pure Sine Wave | Pure Sine Recommended | ✅ Optimal |
| Duty Cycle | 100% (continuous) | 100% | 112.2 hrs real-world |
⚡ Power Math & Safety Analysis
The Anker SOLIX C1000 delivers 1800W of continuous power, which comfortably exceeds the Electric Lantern’s 8W operating draw. This gives you a 1792W safety margin.
After accounting for 85% inverter efficiency, the usable capacity is 898Wh. Dividing this by the appliance’s power draw yields approximately 112.2 hours of continuous runtime.
Pro Tip
For cycling appliances, real-world runtime is longer. With a 100% duty cycle, expect 112.2 hours of elapsed time before depletion.
