Model-Specific Results

3 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: LG LMXS28596S Door-in-Door (27.8 cu.ft) (414W surge).

Model Running Surge Verdict Runtime Source
GE Profile PGD29BYTFS (28.7 cu.ft) 195W 390W Safe ~12.9h Engineering Est.
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 195W (derived from 681 kWh/yr at 40% duty cycle). **Surge:** 390W estimated (2x conservative multiplier โ€” compressor type not explicitly published). **Voltage:** 120V AC. Running watts represent active compressor draw, not the 15A minimum circuit rating on the nameplate.

Field note: The GE Profile PGD29BYTFS is a Wi-Fi connected 4-door model. The 195W running draw and 390W surge make it highly compatible with most portable power stations. The real constraint for multi-day outages is battery capacity, not inverter output.

Can I keep my GE Profile french door refrigerator running during a power outage?

Only if your power source can supply at least 195W continuous and 390W surge at 120V. At ~78W average draw, a 1 kWh battery lasts roughly 13 hours between charges.

Samsung RF29DB9900 Bespoke (28.6 cu.ft) 200W 400W Safe ~12.6h Engineering Est.
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 200W (derived from 700 kWh/yr at 40% duty cycle). **Surge:** 400W estimated (2x conservative multiplier โ€” compressor type not explicitly published in electrical specs). **Voltage:** 120V AC. The 700 kWh/yr EnergyGuide rating confirms this is a mid-range draw for a 28.6 cu.ft unit.

Field note: The Samsung Bespoke 4-Door Flex is one of the best-selling premium french door refrigerators in the US. Its 200W running draw is well within the range of virtually all portable power stations. Battery capacity โ€” not output wattage โ€” is the limiting factor for multi-day backup.

Can I run the Samsung Bespoke refrigerator on a portable power station during a blackout?

Only if your power source can supply at least 200W continuous and 400W surge at 120V. At ~80W average draw, a 1 kWh battery lasts roughly 12.5 hours between charges.

LG LMXS28596S Door-in-Door (27.8 cu.ft) 207W 414W Safe ~12.2h Engineering Est.
Show expert analysis

Technical: **Running load:** 207W (derived from 724 kWh/yr at 40% duty cycle). **Surge:** 414W estimated (2x conservative multiplier โ€” compressor type not explicitly published in electrical specs). **Voltage:** 120V AC. The highest energy consumption in this comparison at 724 kWh/yr, driven by 27.8 cu.ft capacity and Door-in-Door feature.

Field note: The LG Door-in-Door is the highest-draw model in this comparison at 207W running. The InstaView window and Door-in-Door compartment add thermal load from frequent partial opening. Even at worst case, any power station above 500W output can handle this refrigerator โ€” battery capacity is the real constraint.

Can I keep my LG Door-in-Door refrigerator running on battery backup?

Only if your power source can supply at least 207W continuous and 414W surge at 120V. At ~83W average draw, a 1 kWh battery lasts roughly 12 hours between charges.

Generator Insights

The 7200W surge capacity can support typical motor-driven appliances during startup, including air compressor motors, well pumps, and refrigeration units that demand brief high-current events. The 3600Wh capacity provides extended runtime for moderate loads, though actual performance depends on connected equipment and environmental conditions. This unit can handle typical whole-home essentials when loads are properly managed.

The Delta Pro uses LFP chemistry, a lithium iron phosphate formulation widely recognized for thermal stability in residential applications. The manufacturer provides operational guidance in their documentation, but users must follow all installation and usage instructions to minimize risk.

Technical Analysis

Spec-Based โ€ข No Guarantees

Technical Breakdown

Running load: 195โ€“207W depending on model (derived from 681โ€“724 kWh/yr EnergyGuide ratings at 40% duty cycle). Surge: 390โ€“414W estimated (2x conservative multiplier). Voltage: 120V AC required. Compressor type not explicitly published in electrical specs for most models โ€” running watts are derived from annual energy consumption, not nameplate amps.

Expected Behavior

Estimated runtime: ~12.2h. French door refrigerators run 24/7 during an outage with the compressor cycling at approximately 40% duty cycle. Average draw is 78โ€“83W. Daily energy consumption ranges from 1,866โ€“1,986 Wh. A 72-hour outage requires 5,600โ€“5,959 Wh total stored energy.

Field Note

French door refrigerators are among the most generator-friendly large appliances. The compressor running watts (195โ€“207W) are far below the 15A circuit rating on the nameplate. The real constraint for multi-day backup is battery capacity โ€” not inverter output wattage. Most portable power stations above 500W can run a french door fridge; the question is how long.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the EcoFlow Delta Pro power a French Door Refrigerator?

Yes. The EcoFlow Delta Pro provides 3600W running / 7200W surge. The French Door Refrigerator needs 259W / 518W (including 25% buffer). That leaves 3341W of running headroom and 6682W of surge margin.
