How we worked it out: 2,765 Wh × 0.85 ÷ 50 W average (1,000 W × 0.05 duty) = about 47 hours. The 0.85 covers inverter and battery losses. We do not test units ourselves; the numbers come from the official spec sheets and typical device draws. How we pick

Common questions

How long will the BLUETTI Apex 300 run a well pump?
About 47 hours from a full charge. A well pump averages about 50 W (1,000 W running, on about 5% of the time), and the 2,765 Wh battery gives about 2,350 Wh after inverter losses. That is 2.1% of the battery an hour.
Will the BLUETTI Apex 300 start a well pump?
Yes. It needs about 3,000 W for a moment when the pump starts, and the BLUETTI Apex 300 is rated for 7,680 W surge, 2.6 times that. Avoid starting other motors at the same moment.
How much of the battery does a well pump use in a day?
About 1,200 Wh a day (50 W × 24 hours), 51% of the 2,350 Wh the BLUETTI Apex 300 can deliver.
