Sump pump hours on the AC200L

CaseWattsOn the AC200L
1/3 hp sump pump (Honda) (EWEB)800 W2.1 h
1/2 hp sump pump (EWEB)1,050 W1.6 h

Wh × 0.85 ÷ (watts + the station’s own draw, where the maker lists it).

Hours are nonstop pumping; the pump only runs while water comes in, so in most storms it lasts much longer.

Can the AC200L start it?

Generator charts list about 1,500–2,100 W in total to start a 1/3 hp pump and 2,100–3,250 W for 1/2 hp (Honda) (EWEB). The AC200L has a 4,800 W surge. 1/3 hp sump pump: covers it; 1/2 hp sump pump: covers it.

How much an hour takes

An hour of a 1/3 hp sump pump running nonstop uses about 800 Wh, about 46% of the AC200L’s usable 1,741 Wh. At its 1,200 W solar input and our 75% assumption, strong sun puts about 900 Wh an hour back into the battery.

Keep the station dry and above any flood level.
