Show expert analysis

Technical: **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 ~2.9h OEM Verified
Show expert analysis

Technical: **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 analysis

Technical: **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 3300W surge capacity can handle typical startup demands from refrigerators, well pumps, and other motor-driven appliances that require brief inrush current. The 1800W continuous rating supports sustained loads like power tools, kitchen appliances, and electronics. Understand that this is a legacy unit no longer in active production.

This legacy model uses NMC lithium chemistry in a 1260Wh battery pack. The manufacturer documentation outlines operational guidelines and user precautions for safe charging and discharging cycles.

Technical Analysis

Spec-Based โ€ข No Guarantees

Technical 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: ~2.9h. 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 EcoFlow DELTA (Gen 1) power a Slow Cooker?

Yes. The EcoFlow DELTA (Gen 1) provides 1800W running / 3300W surge. The Slow Cooker needs 330W / 330W (including 10% buffer). That leaves 1470W of running headroom and 2970W of surge margin.

How long will the DELTA (Gen 1) run a Slow Cooker?

Approximately 2.9 hours, based on the Slow Cooker's 300W draw and the DELTA (Gen 1)'s 1260Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).

What Else Can You Run?

With 1130W allocated to the Slow Cooker, the DELTA (Gen 1) still has ~10W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
