Q: Can you use electric blanket, if so for how long? Can you plug in very small freezer??
A: Dear Customer, Thanks for reaching out to us regarding this question. There are different running watts of an electric blanket in different heat settings. As long as the running watts of the current heat setting of your electric blankets is less than 200W, the Explorer 290 can run it. As for the run-time, you can calculate it roughly via the formula of 290Wh* 0.8(inverter power loss) / running watts of your device. Here is a set of data for your reference: The Sunbeam Electric Blanket with 3 heat settings: 1.115 watts (the running wattage of Low heat setting), the Explorer 290 can run it around 2 hours. 2.135 watts (the running wattage of Medium heat setting), the Explorer 290 can run it around 1.7 hours. 3.170 watts (the running wattage of High heat setting), the Explorer 290 can run it around 1.36 hours. This Explorer 290 can run a 7 cu. ft small freezer whose running wattage is 165W for around 1.4 hours. Should you have other questions or concerns, feel free to contact our customer service.
