Backup Power Capabilities
While you’ll be able to run many appliances during a blackout, note the 2.5kW load total limit. This means it’s not viable to run very large power consumption appliances such as some reverse cycle air conditioner. However, in a blackout scenario, you’ll be able to run items such as:
- an energy-efficient fridge or freezer
- lamps
- a radio
- laptop computers
- fans and portable evaporative coolers
- chargers for handheld devices.
