about 10 hours
on a single full charge
Est. usable (AC): 1,175 Wh
Appliance draw: 120 W
Continuous output: 1800 W
How we calculated this
We start from the Jackery Explorer 1500 Ultra's 1,175 Wh of estimated usable energy at the outlet — its 1,536 Wh rating, derated for a safe depth of discharge and ~15% inverter loss — then divide by the projector (portable)'s 120W draw:
1,175 Wh ÷ 120 W ≈ 9.8 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.
