Running A Smokefire EX4 on an Anker Portable Power Station 1056Wh

[SteveUK]

Thinking of moving my Smokefire EX4 to the top of the garden under new BBQ Shelter, no power supply up there, was wondering if one these batteries would run a Smokefire EX4 succesfully and for approx how long, including start up to heat the pellets, does anyone know based on this one being 1056Wh?

I would think it should work fine. How long? IDK. But if you look at the avg KWh consumption of the grill, and the total available you can then extrapolate from there

I have a device called a Kill-A-Watt that measures voltage, amps, watts and a couple of other values. It's pretty handy for checking things like this.

I run my EX6 on this Jackery power station: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082TMBYR6?tag=tvwb-20



I don't have recorded data but I think it is at approximately 80% after a 6 hour session. I also plug my Fireboard into the USB port.

Edit: it might be at the 70% range - that's where it was after a cook on Sunday but I don't remember if it was fully charged when I began the cook.

Unless your gonna use it for other things, that's a lot of money for a single use item when running a power line is not that expensive.

It is 150ft to the top of our garden and thats quite a big trench needed to hide the cable as well, looks to be actually cheaper, than the wire, conduit etc for that sort of length.

Wife wants the patio back at the bottom of the garden, now I'm up to 5 BBQ's

The Gas Grill will run a rotisserie, as well the rotisserie for the ground firepit and hopefully run a few lights as well, when eating and cooking up there.

That looks hopeful then based on those figures
