How long will the DJI Power 500 run a nintendo switch (docked)?

Will the DJI Power 500 run a nintendo switch (docked)?

Yes — the Power 500 runs a nintendo switch (docked) comfortably

Its 1000W continuous output easily covers the 18W draw.

Estimated runtime
about 22 hours
on a single full charge
Est. usable (AC): 392 Wh
Appliance draw: 18 W
Continuous output: 1000 W

How we calculated this

We start from the DJI Power 500's 392 Wh of estimated usable energy at the outlet — its 512 Wh rating, derated for a safe depth of discharge and ~15% inverter loss — then divide by the nintendo switch (docked)'s 18W draw:

392 Wh ÷ 18 W ≈ 21.8 hours

Real-world runtime varies with temperature, cable losses, and how hard the appliance actually cycles. Treat this as a solid estimate, not a guarantee.
