Model-Specific Results
3 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: Tiger JBV-A18U (10-Cup Micom) (941W surge).
| Model | Running | Surge | Verdict | Runtime | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aroma ARC-914SBD (8-Cup Digital) | 350W | 350W | Safe | ~7.7h | OEM Verified |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 350 W. **Surge:** 350 W. Requires 120V AC output. Resistive heating element with no motor inrush. One of the lightest rice cooker loads available. Field note: At 350W this is one of the easiest kitchen appliances to run off-grid. Even a compact 300Wh power station can handle a full cook cycle. Can I run this Aroma rice cooker on a small portable power station? Yes — at 350W it works on any power station rated 500W+ continuous. A 500Wh battery handles multiple cook cycles. | |||||
| Zojirushi NS-TSC18 (10-Cup Micom) | 820W | 820W | Safe | ~3.3h | OEM Manual |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 820 W. **Surge:** 820 W (no inrush spike). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Micom (microcomputer) fuzzy-logic heating draws more than basic rice cookers due to advanced temperature control. Field note: The 10-cup Zojirushi is a mid-range load. Power stations rated 1000W+ handle it with comfortable margin. The fuzzy logic cycling means average draw is below 820W over a full cook. Can I run this Zojirushi on a 500W power station? No — it draws 820W continuous. You need at least a 1000W-rated power station for safe operation. | |||||
| Tiger JBV-A18U (10-Cup Micom) | 941W | 941W | Safe | ~2.9h | OEM Verified |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 941 W. **Surge:** 941 W. Requires 120V AC output. Micom-controlled heating with no motor inrush. The highest-draw standard rice cooker in this comparison. Field note: At 941W this is the heaviest standard rice cooker load. A 1200W power station handles it with margin. Don't confuse this with induction heating models (1300W+) which are a different class. Why does this Tiger draw more than a Zojirushi of the same size? Heating element wattage varies by design. The Tiger JBV-A18U uses a 941W element vs 820W for the Zojirushi NS-TSC18 — both are 10-cup micom cookers but with different heating configurations. | |||||

Generator Insights
The 9000W surge rating can handle typical compressor-based appliances like central air conditioners, well pumps, and refrigerators during startup. This capacity can support multiple simultaneous high-draw devices once running loads stabilize. Expect reliable operation for tools, HVAC systems, and other inductive loads that demand short-duration power spikes.
This unit employs LFP chemistry with a 3840Wh capacity, designed for stable discharge under high-demand conditions. The architecture supports both sustained and transient loads within rated limits. Source: Anker SOLIX F3800 User Manual v1.1 (Specifications) (OEM documentation).

Technical Analysis
Spec-Based • No GuaranteesTechnical Breakdown
Running load: 941 W continuous (worst case). Surge: 941 W (resistive heating element, no motor start spike). Voltage: 120 V AC required. Rice cookers range from 350W (basic digital) to 941W (large micom) depending on size and technology.
Expected Behavior
Estimated runtime: ~2.9h. Load depends on model: budget 8-cup cookers draw 350W, premium 10-cup micom models draw 820-941W. Half-hour daily operation consumes 175-470 Wh. Load is steady with no inrush spike.
Field Note
Check your specific model before sizing a power station. A budget Aroma (350W) runs on almost anything, while a 10-cup Tiger or Zojirushi (820-941W) needs a 1000W+ station.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Anker SOLIX F3800 power a Rice Cooker?
Yes. The Anker SOLIX F3800 provides 6000W running / 9000W surge. The Rice Cooker needs 1036W / 1036W (including 10% buffer). That leaves 4964W of running headroom and 7964W of surge margin.
How long will the Anker SOLIX F3800 run a Rice Cooker?
Approximately 2.9 hours, based on the Rice Cooker's 941W draw and the Anker SOLIX F3800's 3840Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).
What Else Can You Run?
With 3610W allocated to the Rice Cooker, the Anker SOLIX F3800 still has ~249W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
