Recharging with solar

The Pecron E1500LFP accepts up to 800W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 3 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.

Solar can keep up. A dishwasher uses about 1.1 kWh a day at 1.5 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Pecron E1500LFP can run it indefinitely.

Tips

  • A dishwasher heats water in bursts during a 1.5–2 hour cycle, using about 1–1.5 kWh. Skip the heated dry to save energy.
  • You’ll still have about 700W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
  • The Pecron E1500LFP uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
