⚡ Power Math & Safety Analysis
The Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 delivers 2000W of continuous power, which comfortably exceeds the Surgical Suction Unit’s 150W operating draw. This gives you a 1850W safety margin.
After accounting for 85% inverter efficiency, the usable capacity is 898Wh. Dividing this by the appliance’s power draw yields approximately 6 hours of continuous runtime.
Pro Tip
For cycling appliances, real-world runtime is longer. With a 20% duty cycle, expect 29.9 hours of elapsed time before depletion.
