Will the Bluetti Apex 300 run a 12v cooler / fridge?
Yes — the Apex 300 runs a 12v cooler / fridge comfortably
Its 3840W continuous output easily covers the 45W draw, with 7680W of surge on tap for startup.
How we calculated this
We start from the Bluetti Apex 300's 1,997 Wh of estimated usable energy at the outlet — its 2,764 Wh rating, derated for a safe depth of discharge and ~15% inverter loss — then divide by the 12v cooler / fridge's 45W draw:
1,997 Wh ÷ 45 W ≈ 44.4 hours
Heads up: a 12v cooler / fridge is a motor/compressor load that spikes 2–3× on startup. The Bluetti Apex 300's 3840W continuous / 7680W 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.
