Which power stations can run a well pump?

Well pump (1/2 HP): about 750 to 1,000 W running, 1,500 to 2,000 W for a moment to start. 61 of the 77 power stations we track can run it; the lowest list price among them is the BLUETTI AC180 at $499.

Some brands may pay us a commission if you buy through our links. It never changes the order of results. How we make money.

Specs and prices checked:

61 of 77 power stations can start and run a well pump.

The lowest list price that runs it for at least 24 hours: the Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus at $699 (26 hours). 14 can't run it or start it. 2 don't publish a surge rating, so we can't say whether they would start it.

Runtimes below assume it runs 1 hour a day: change that in the planner.

Brand doesn't publish a surge rating (2)

Starting your list needs more than these units' continuous rating, and their makers don't publish a surge figure, so we can't say whether they'd start it.
