Model-Specific Results
3 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: Crock-Pot 7-Quart Manual Slow Cooker (SAP_2131381) (300W surge).
| Model | Running | Surge | Verdict | Runtime | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Crock-Pot 6-Quart Cook and Carry (SCCPVL610SA) | 240W | 240W | Safe | ~2.2h | OEM Verified |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 240 W. **Surge:** 240 W (no inrush spike). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Resistive heating element draws steady current with no motor or compressor startup transient. Field note: Verify power station AC inverter capacity exceeds 240 W continuous rating. Reserve at least 20% headroom (300 W minimum inverter rating) for thermal stability during extended runtime. Can I run this slow cooker on a portable power station all day? Only if your power source can supply at least 240W continuous and 240W surge at 120V. | |||||
| Crock-Pot 7-Quart Manual Slow Cooker (SAP_2131381) | 300W | 300W | Safe | ~1.8h | OEM Verified |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 300 W. **Surge:** 300 W (resistive heating element, no motor startup). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Power station must sustain 300 W continuous output at 120 V for safe operation. Field note: Verify power station rated capacity exceeds 1800 Wh if running the full daily cycle. Add 10-15% margin for inverter efficiency losses. Can I cook an 8-hour recipe on a single charge? Only if your power source can supply at least 300W continuous and 300W surge at 120V. It depends on the power station's usable capacity. An 8-hour cook cycle requires 2400 Wh minimum, plus inverter overhead. Verify your unit's rated watt-hours before planning extended recipes. | |||||

Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 210 W. **Surge:** 210 W (resistive heating element, no inrush). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Power station must deliver clean 120 V output and at least 210 W continuous capacity. Field note: Verify power station capacity exceeds 1260 Wh if running a full daily cook cycle on battery alone. Leave 15 percent headroom for inverter efficiency loss. Can I run this slow cooker for 8 hours on a 1500 Wh power station? Only if your power source can supply at least 210W continuous and 210W surge at 120V. | |||||

Generator Insights
The 1600W surge rating can support startup sequences for refrigerator compressors, well pumps, and similar inductive motor loads that draw 25 to 33 percent over running current during initial engagement. Once running, the 1200W continuous output can handle typical kitchen appliances, electronics, and power tools within rated limits. This combination addresses both inrush events and sustained runtime needs in backup scenarios.
This unit uses LFP chemistry, a battery architecture chosen for thermal stability in consumer power stations. The 768Wh capacity and 1200W continuous output allow sustained operation without thermal stress under typical residential loads. Source: Anker SOLIX C800 Plus Tech Specs (manufacturer documentation).

Technical Analysis
Spec-Based • No GuaranteesTechnical Breakdown
Running load: 300 W. Surge: 300 W (resistive heating element). Voltage: 120 V AC required. Power station must supply clean AC output at this voltage and sustain 300 W continuous draw.
Expected Behavior
Estimated runtime: ~1.8h. Resistive load remains steady throughout the cook cycle. Usage over 6 hours per day consumes approximately 1800 Wh daily.
Field Note
Ensure at least 400 W inverter capacity for headroom. Verify power station supports multi-hour AC loads without thermal shutdown.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Anker SOLIX C800 Plus power a Slow Cooker?
Yes. The Anker SOLIX C800 Plus provides 1200W running / 1600W surge. The Slow Cooker needs 330W / 330W (including 10% buffer). That leaves 870W of running headroom and 1270W of surge margin.
How long will the SOLIX C800 Plus run a Slow Cooker?
Approximately 1.8 hours, based on the Slow Cooker's 300W draw and the SOLIX C800 Plus's 768Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).
What Else Can You Run?
With 350W allocated to the Slow Cooker, the SOLIX C800 Plus still has ~310W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
