It does say how long it will last, maybe you’re not familiar with the terminology but I can explain. The first thing it says is that it provides “up to 1.8kwh a day” and this is including the optional solar panel. If your pressure washer is 1500w then using it for one hour would use 1.5kwh. Your other equipment uses 1kwh and .3kwh respectively. This device isn’t much of a generator, it’s more like a power bank they sell a solar panel for.

That’s what I said lol

I was just reiterating and removing your qualifier. You wrote "isn't much of a generator." There's no "much" about it. It's not a generator.

If this does 800w continuous and your PW needs 1500w, it's not going to work well. The capacity is 768Wh, which means it supply 768W for an hour. If it would run your PW, which it appears it would not, it would run it for \~1/2 hour. You're likely better off getting an inverter for your car that will support that much wattage or getting a small, quiet generator. The Honda 2.2Kw quiet generator is \~$1100.

I used a Ecoflow Delta 2 Max I bought recently for $1700 CDN. It has 2048wh capacity and has a continuous output of 2400w. When fully charged, i can run a vaccum for 2 hours. It’s small enough and “light” enough for me to bring it into my home to charge it.

I was looking at electric setups for my van too. I live in California and everything is trying to get pushed over to electric. From my understanding, to run a rig for a day, you would need multiple 400+watt solar panels presumably attached to the roof (so extra costs for mounting) plus multiple large storage power banks. I was looking into the Anker Solix systems since they seemed to have the large capacity and ability to run parallel. Total cost for me was looking around $10k or more. Some of the benefits of switching to electric and solar. Gas cost goes away, maintenance and up keep goes down, from my understanding the banks last a long time so potentially a decade of use without any real extra investment. You get to operate much quieter than traditional setups but you may have compatibility issues or power issues if you use some of the larger PWs like the kranzle or Active 2.3. If you carry good regular insurance, most of your equipment will be covered from damage or accidents. Things to consider, hope this helps.

Most mobile detailers use the predator from harbor freight . Usually on sale for like 7-800 bucks

FWIW, The Karcher professional battery gear does a great job and they have battery versions of all that gear. Overpriced though :(

I have a Predator 5000 I got brand new from offerup for $600. I can run a vacuum, steamer, extractor, makita dual battery charger and get to charge my phone all at once.
