⚡ Power Math & Safety Analysis
The Westinghouse 14500 Peak Watt Tri-Fuel Home Backup Portable Generator delivers 11500W of continuous power, which comfortably exceeds the Full-Size Refrigerator’s 300W operating draw. This gives you a 11200W safety margin.
After accounting for 85% inverter efficiency, the usable capacity is 29750Wh. Dividing this by the appliance’s power draw yields approximately 99.2 hours of continuous runtime.
Pro Tip
For cycling appliances, real-world runtime is longer. With a 33% duty cycle, expect 300.5 hours of elapsed time before depletion.
