Model Running Surge Verdict Runtime Source
NETGEAR R6220 18W 18W Safe ~238.9h OEM Verified
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 18W continuous. **Surge:** 18W (no inrush spike). **Voltage:** requires 120V AC. Most portable power stations provide 120V AC outlets and can handle this steady-state load.

Field note: Verify your power station's inverter can sustain 18W for extended periods without entering sleep mode. Some units disable AC output below 20W.

Will this router maintain emergency connectivity during a 48-hour outage?

Only if your power source can supply at least 18W continuous and 18W surge at 120V. It depends on your power station's usable capacity.

NETGEAR R6700v3 30W 30W Safe ~143.4h OEM Verified
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 30 W. **Surge:** 30 W. **Voltage:** 120 V AC. No surge above steady state. Compatible with any 120 V AC inverter output rated 30 W or higher.

Field note: Ensure power station inverter remains enabled continuously. Router uptime depends on uninterrupted AC supply.

Can I run this router on a 500 Wh power station for a full day?

Only if your power source can supply at least 30W continuous and 30W surge at 120V. Only if the power station supplies at least 720 Wh of usable AC capacity and you do not load other devices simultaneously.

NETGEAR R7000 42W 42W Safe ~102.4h OEM Verified
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 42 W. **Surge:** 42 W (no inrush). Requires 120V AC. Most portable power stations rated 120V 60Hz and โ‰ฅ100W continuous output can supply this load, provided the waveform is compatible with the internal SMPS.

Field note: Verify the power station's continuous output rating exceeds 42 W with margin. Some consumer units throttle under sustained load.

Can I run this router on a 500 Wh power station for a full day?

Only if your power source can supply at least 42W continuous and 42W surge at 120V. Only if you recharge partway through or reduce usage hours. 24-hour operation consumes 1008 Wh, exceeding a 500 Wh capacity.

Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 75 W (estimated). **Surge:** 75 W (no inrush). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. The 300W PSU rating covers maximum input capacity, not typical draw. Actual router consumption is a fraction of the PSU rating.

Field note: Do not confuse the PSU input rating (300W) with actual consumption. The router draws far less. If powering the full Starlink system (dish + router), see the Starlink System device instead.

Does the Starlink router really draw 300W?

No. The 300W figure is the power supply's maximum input rating, not actual consumption. The router itself draws approximately 50-75W. The dish (terminal) has its own power path.

Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 50 W (estimated). **Surge:** 50 W (no inrush). Requires 120V AC. The 192W PSU rating is maximum input capacity, not typical draw.

Field note: The 192W figure on the spec sheet is the PSU max rating, not actual router consumption. If powering the full Starlink system (dish + router), see the Starlink System device.

Does this router really draw 192W?

No. The 192W is the power supply's maximum input rating. Actual router consumption is approximately 40-50W.

Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 40 W (estimated). **Surge:** 40 W (no inrush spike). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Compact mesh router with lower processing overhead than the Gen 3.

Field note: The 192W on the spec sheet is the PSU max rating. Starlink Mini ships with a USB-C power supply โ€” verify AC adapter spec if using inverter output instead of native DC.

Does the Mini router really draw 192W?

No. The 192W is the power supply's maximum input rating. The Mini router draws approximately 30-40W. For the full Starlink Mini system (dish + router), see the Starlink System device.

Generator Insights

With 12000 watts of surge capacity, this system can handle typical startup loads for central air compressors, well pumps, and other motor-driven equipment common in residential settings. The 6000-watt continuous rating supports sustained operation of multiple high-draw appliances simultaneously. The 6144 Wh capacity provides meaningful runtime for essential circuits during grid outages.

This unit uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry, known for stable thermal behavior in stationary storage applications. The system is designed with internal protections typical of grid-tied and off-grid battery platforms. Source: EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra User Manual (manufacturer documentation).

Technical Analysis

Spec-Based โ€ข No Guarantees

Technical Breakdown

Running load: 18-75 W depending on model. Surge: same as running (no inrush). Requires 120 V AC. WiFi routers are constant-draw electronic devices with no motor or compressor.

Expected Behavior

Estimated runtime: ~57.3h. Operates 24 hours/day at steady draw. Daily energy ranges from 432 Wh (basic router) to 1800 Wh (high-end mesh). No cycling or transient events.

Field Note

Some power stations disable AC output below 20-25W (eco mode). Verify your station can sustain low-wattage loads continuously. For Starlink routers, do not confuse the PSU max input rating with actual consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra power a WiFi Router?

Yes. The EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra provides 6000W running / 12000W surge. The WiFi Router needs 87W / 87W (including 15% buffer). That leaves 5913W of running headroom and 11913W of surge margin.

How long will the Delta Pro Ultra run a WiFi Router?

Approximately 57.3 hours, based on the WiFi Router's 75W draw and the Delta Pro Ultra's 6144Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).

What Else Can You Run?

With 1105W allocated to the WiFi Router, the Delta Pro Ultra still has ~3620W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
