About this plugin
If you write about camping, RVs, off-grid living or getting ready for power outages, your readers keep asking the same thing: how long will this power station run my stuff? This plugin adds a calculator that answers it, right in your post.
Visitors pick a power station (more than 50 models from Anker SOLIX, BLUETTI, DJI, EcoFlow, Goal Zero and Jackery, or any battery size they type in), add their devices, and get the number of hours. It also tells them when a station can’t start something, like a fridge whose startup surge is higher than the station’s limit.
The power station specs come from the manufacturers’ own pages and manuals. The appliance wattages list their sources. Runtimes allow for about 15% inverter loss.
You can set which model shows first, pick light or dark colors (or let it follow the visitor’s system setting), and change the starting height. On your site the frame then resizes itself to fit, so there’s no scrollbar inside it.
There’s an optional “Calculator by OutageMath” link you can show under the calculator, on your page. It’s off unless you turn it on. )
No ads, no tracking, no sign-up.
