Model-Specific Results

3 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: Midea EasyDry MDP70SR71 (70 Pint) (3,335W surge).

Model Running Surge Verdict Runtime Source
Midea EasyDry MDP70SR71 (70 Pint) 690W 3,335W Tight ~2.1h OEM Manual
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Voltage:** 120V AC required. **Running load:** 690W. **Surge:** 3335W at startup (compressor-driven). Only power stations with inverter surge capacity โ‰ฅ3335W and continuous output โ‰ฅ690W are candidates.

Field note: Verify the power station's surge window duration. Short-duration surge ratings may not accommodate refrigerant compressor startup transients reliably.

Can I run this dehumidifier on a portable power station overnight?

Only if your power source can supply at least 690W continuous and 3335W surge at 120V. It depends on the station's surge capacity and battery size.

Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 690 W. **Surge demand:** 3,335 W at compressor start. Requires 120V AC output. Power station must deliver the full surge envelope without tripping overcurrent protection.

Field note: Ensure your power station's inverter can handle the 3,335 W surge without shutdown. Verify outlet capacity exceeds continuous draw.

Can I run this dehumidifier on a portable power station?

Only if your power source can supply at least 690W continuous and 3335W surge at 120V. Most portable units cannot meet the surge requirement.

Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 860W. **Surge:** 2580W at startup. Requires 120V AC output. Power station must sustain 860W continuous and handle 2580W compressor inrush without tripping.

Field note: Size the power station to at least 125% of running load (1075W minimum output) to avoid nuisance shutdowns during concurrent household draw.

Can I run this dehumidifier overnight on a portable power station?

Only if your power source can supply at least 860W continuous and 2580W surge at 120V. Most portable units lack sufficient capacity for full-day basement moisture control.

Installation warning

These systems are often hardwired to a home panel. To run them from a portable station, you may need a transfer switch installed by an electrician. You cannot just plug it in.

Generator Insights

With 3600W surge capacity, this unit can handle typical startup loads from refrigerator compressors, well pumps, and similar inductive motors. The 2600W running output supports sustained operation of multiple mid-draw appliances simultaneously. The 2073Wh capacity provides runtime flexibility for extended outages or off-grid scenarios.

This unit uses LFP chemistry, a stable lithium configuration widely adopted in residential backup systems. The manufacturer reports surge handling to 3600W, though independent verification of thermal performance and overcurrent protection was not provided.

Technical Analysis

Spec-Based โ€ข No Guarantees

Technical Breakdown

Running load: 860 W continuous. Surge demand: 3335 W at compressor startup. Voltage: 120 V AC required. Power station must handle the surge margin and sustain the load for the intended duration.

Expected Behavior

Estimated runtime: ~1.7h. Operates 24 hours per day drawing approximately 20640 Wh daily. Compressor cycles cause brief high-current transients during startup then settles to steady draw.

Field Note

Verify the power station inverter rating exceeds 3335 W surge capacity. Undersized units will trip during compressor kick-in.
