Model-Specific Results
3 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: Traeger Legacy (Non-WiFIRE, AC motor) (300W surge).
| Model | Running | Surge | Verdict | Runtime | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Traeger Touchscreen Class (Pro 780, Ironwood 650/885) | 20W | 95W | Safe | ~72.6h | Engineering Est. |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** ~20 W (estimated cook phase — auger motor + fan + controller after igniter shuts off). **Surge:** 95 W (igniter startup phase, first 4 minutes). Requires 120V AC output. After the igniter cycle, power drops dramatically. Field note: Current-generation Traeger grills are extremely efficient. Even a compact 300Wh power station can run a full 6-hour cook on a single charge. The 95W igniter startup is the only meaningful load. Can I run a Traeger Pro 780 on a portable power station? Yes — after the 4-minute ignition cycle (95W), the grill draws only ~20W. Most power stations handle this easily for extended cooks. | |||||
| Traeger D2 Class (WiFIRE, non-touchscreen) | 20W | 110W | Safe | ~72.6h | Engineering Est. |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 20 W (cook phase — 0.17A high end of OEM range × 120V). **Surge:** 110 W (igniter startup). Requires 120V AC output. D2 Direct Drive uses DC brushless motors that are more efficient than Legacy AC motors. Field note: D2 grills sit between Legacy (300W startup) and Touchscreen (95W startup). The cooking draw is nearly identical to Touchscreen class — the difference is only in the igniter startup phase. What's the difference between D2 and Touchscreen power draw? D2 startup is 110W vs 95W for Touchscreen. After ignition, both draw approximately 10-20W during cooking. The difference is negligible for power station sizing. | |||||
| Traeger Legacy (Non-WiFIRE, AC motor) | 96W | 300W | Safe | ~15.1h | Engineering Est. |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 96 W (cook phase — 0.8A high end of OEM range × 120V). **Surge:** 300 W (igniter startup, OEM published). Requires 120V AC output. Legacy AC motors draw 5-8x more than modern D2/Touchscreen grills during cooking. Field note: If you have an older non-WiFIRE Traeger, plan for 300W surge and 96W continuous. This is 5x the cooking draw of a modern Touchscreen model. A 500Wh station barely covers a 6-hour cook — a 1000Wh station is safer. Why does my old Traeger draw so much more than new models? Legacy non-WiFIRE Traegers use AC motors and a higher-wattage igniter (300W vs 95-110W). The cooking phase draws 48-96W vs 10-20W for D2/Touchscreen. Upgrading to a current model dramatically reduces power needs. | |||||

Generator Insights
With 3600W surge capacity, this unit can handle typical startup loads from refrigerator compressors, well pumps, and similar inductive motors. The 2600W running output supports sustained operation of multiple mid-draw appliances simultaneously. The 2073Wh capacity provides runtime flexibility for extended outages or off-grid scenarios.
This unit uses LFP chemistry, a stable lithium configuration widely adopted in residential backup systems. The manufacturer reports surge handling to 3600W, though independent verification of thermal performance and overcurrent protection was not provided.

Technical Analysis
Spec-Based • No GuaranteesTechnical Breakdown
Running load: 96 W (worst case, Legacy Non-WiFIRE cook phase). Surge: 300 W (Legacy igniter startup). Voltage: 120 V AC required. Pellet grills have two distinct phases: a brief igniter startup (4-5 min, high draw) followed by hours of low-draw cooking (auger + fan only).
Expected Behavior
Estimated runtime: ~15.1h. Power draw depends heavily on controller generation. Modern Touchscreen models (Pro 780, Ironwood) draw 95W startup / ~20W cooking. Legacy Non-WiFIRE models draw 300W startup / 48-96W cooking. Most of the cook session is at the low running wattage.
Field Note
Check your Traeger's controller type before sizing a power station. A modern Touchscreen model runs all day on a 300Wh station. A Legacy Non-WiFIRE model needs 500-1000Wh for a full cook.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Bluetti Elite 200 V2 power a Pellet Grill?
Yes. The Bluetti Elite 200 V2 provides 2600W running / 3600W surge. The Pellet Grill needs 111W / 345W (including 15% buffer). That leaves 2489W of running headroom and 3255W of surge margin.
How long will the Elite 200 V2 run a Pellet Grill?
Approximately 15.1 hours, based on the Pellet Grill's 96W draw and the Elite 200 V2's 2073Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).
What Else Can You Run?
With 1740W allocated to the Pellet Grill, the Elite 200 V2 still has ~244W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
