Model-Specific Results
3 of 3 models are SAFE or TIGHT. Most demanding model: Ninja Foodi OP301 (TenderCrisp, 6.5 Qt) (1,460W surge).
| Model | Running | Surge | Verdict | Runtime | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Instant Pot Duo 6QT | 1,000W | 1,000W | Safe | ~4.3h | OEM Manual |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1000 W. **Surge:** 1000 W. Requires 120V AC output. Power station must supply continuous 1000 W with stable voltage regulation under resistive heating load. Field note: The classic Duo is the lightest multi-cooker load at 1000W. Most power stations rated 1200W+ handle it without issue. Can I use a 1000 W power station with this Instant Pot? Only if your power source can supply at least 1000W continuous and 1000W surge at 120V. | |||||
| Breville Fast Slow Pro BPR700BSS | 1,100W | 1,100W | Safe | ~3.9h | OEM Manual |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1100 W. **Surge:** 1100 W. Requires 120V AC output. Resistive heating element with no motor inrush. Dual temperature and pressure sensors regulate heat cycling but peak draw remains 1100 W. Field note: Premium multi-cooker with 11 pressure settings. At 1100W it sits between the Instant Pot Duo (1000W) and higher-wattage air fryer combos. Most 1500W stations handle it comfortably. Is the Breville Fast Slow Pro harder to run than an Instant Pot? Slightly — it draws 1100W vs 1000W for the standard Duo. Any power station rated 1200W+ continuous handles both without issue. | |||||
| Ninja Foodi OP301 (TenderCrisp, 6.5 Qt) | 1,460W | 1,460W | Safe | ~2.9h | OEM Manual |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1460 W. **Surge:** 1460 W. Requires 120V AC output. The 1460W nameplate reflects the air crisp lid at full heat. Pressure-cook-only mode draws less, but the generator must handle the rated maximum since any mode can be activated. Field note: The Ninja Foodi is the heaviest multi-cooker load due to its integrated air fryer element. A 1500W-rated station will run it, but with minimal headroom. 2000W stations are safer for extended use. Does pressure cooking on the Ninja Foodi draw the full 1460W? Pressure-only mode draws less than 1460W, but we rate at nameplate because the air crisp lid can be activated at any time. Your power station must handle 1460W continuous. | |||||

Generator Insights
With 24,000W surge capacity, this system can handle typical compressor startup events found in central air conditioners, well pumps, and refrigeration equipment. The 12,000W continuous rating supports sustained high-load operation across multiple circuits. At 6,144Wh usable capacity, runtime depends on connected load, but this configuration can support whole-home essentials during extended outages.
This unit uses LFP chemistry, a formulation widely recognized for thermal stability in residential backup applications. The manufacturer provides operational guidelines in their documentation, and users should follow all installation and grounding instructions.

Technical Analysis
Spec-Based • No GuaranteesTechnical Breakdown
Running load: 1460 W continuous (worst case). Surge: 1460 W (resistive heating element, no motor start spike). Voltage: 120 V AC required. Multi-cookers range from 1000W (basic pressure cooker) to 1460W (pressure + air fryer combo).
Expected Behavior
Estimated runtime: ~2.9h. Load depends on cooking mode: pressure-only models draw 1000-1100W, air fryer combos draw up to 1460W. One hour daily operation consumes 1000-1460 Wh. Load is steady with no inrush spike.
Field Note
Check which model you own before sizing your power station. A basic Instant Pot Duo (1000W) needs far less capacity than a Ninja Foodi with crisping lid (1460W).
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra X power an Instant Pot?
Yes. The EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra X provides 12000W running / 24000W surge. The Instant Pot (6 Qt) needs 1607W / 1607W (including 10% buffer). That leaves 10393W of running headroom and 22393W of surge margin.
How long will the Delta Pro Ultra X run an Instant Pot?
Approximately 2.9 hours, based on the Instant Pot (6 Qt)'s 1460W draw and the Delta Pro Ultra X's 6144Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).
What Else Can You Run?
With 3660W allocated to the Instant Pot (6 Qt), the Delta Pro Ultra X still has ~4480W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
