Question:
Can the BaseCharge 1500+ run my CPAP machine all night without draining completely?
asked by: Sara
Expert Reply:
Absolutely, Sara. A typical CPAP draws 30–60 watts, so the 1500+ # BL83ZR with its 1521 Wh capacity can run it for 20–40 hours depending on your pressure settings and if you’re using the humidifier (BioLite says estimate is 31 hours of CPAP use). That’s multiple nights without recharging, which would be perfect for camping or off grid trips.
You can also pair it with solar kit # BL97ZR to top off during the day. The 600+ # BL23ZR can handle a night or two as well, but you’ll have more breathing room (pun intended) with the 1500+ # BL83ZR . Have you considered a DC adapter # BL59ZR for your CPAP? That can extend your run time even further by charging off the cigarette outlet in your vehicle while traveling.
