How long will the Bluetti Apex 300 run a 12v cooler / fridge?

Will the Bluetti Apex 300 run a 12v cooler / fridge?

Yes — the Apex 300 runs a 12v cooler / fridge comfortably

Its 3840W continuous output easily covers the 45W draw, with 7680W of surge on tap for startup.

Estimated runtime
about 1.9 days (~44 hours)
on a single full charge
Est. usable (AC): 1,997 Wh
Appliance draw: 45 W
Continuous output: 3840 W

How we calculated this

We start from the Bluetti Apex 300's 1,997 Wh of estimated usable energy at the outlet — its 2,764 Wh rating, derated for a safe depth of discharge and ~15% inverter loss — then divide by the 12v cooler / fridge's 45W draw:

1,997 Wh ÷ 45 W ≈ 44.4 hours

Heads up: a 12v cooler / fridge is a motor/compressor load that spikes 2–3× on startup. The Bluetti Apex 300's 3840W continuous / 7680W surge output has plenty of headroom for that spike.

Real-world runtime varies with temperature, cable losses, and how hard the appliance actually cycles. Treat this as a solid estimate, not a guarantee.
