How long will the Goal Zero Yeti 300 run a cpap machine?

Q: Will the Goal Zero Yeti 300 run a cpap machine?

Yes — the Yeti 300 runs a cpap machine comfortably. Its 300W continuous output easily covers the 40W draw, with 600W of surge on tap for startup.

Q: How long will the Goal Zero Yeti 300 run a cpap machine?

The Goal Zero Yeti 300 has 297 Wh (about 227 Wh usable at the outlet, estimated). Running a cpap machine that draws 40W, it lasts about 6 hours on a single full charge.

Estimated runtime

on a single full charge

Est. usable (AC): 227 Wh

Appliance draw: 40 W

Continuous output: 300 W

How we calculated this

We start from the Goal Zero Yeti 300's 227 Wh of estimated usable energy at the outlet — its 297 Wh rating, derated for a safe depth of discharge and ~15% inverter loss — then divide by the cpap machine's 40W draw:

227 Wh ÷ 40 W ≈ 5.7 hours

Heads up: a cpap machine is a motor/compressor load that spikes 2–3× on startup. The Goal Zero Yeti 300's 300W continuous / 600W 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.
