Will the Anker SOLIX S5000 Portable Power Station run a electric kettle?
Yes — the SOLIX S5000 Portable Power Station runs a electric kettle comfortably
Its 4500W continuous output easily covers the 1200W draw, with 8000W of surge on tap for startup.
How we calculated this
We start from the Anker SOLIX S5000 Portable Power Station's 4,890 Wh of bench-tested usable energy at the outlet (we measured it under a real AC load), then divide by the electric kettle's 1200W draw:
4,890 Wh ÷ 1200 W ≈ 4.1 hours
Heads up: a electric kettle is a motor/compressor load that spikes 2–3× on startup. The Anker SOLIX S5000 Portable Power Station's 4500W continuous / 8000W surge output has plenty of headroom for that spike.
Real-world runtime varies with temperature, cable losses, and how hard the appliance actually cycles. Treat this as a solid estimate, not a guarantee.
