Quick answers

How long will a power station run a router?

About 12.2 h on a 288 Wh BLUETTI Elite 30 V2 (including its own 9 W draw) and 3.4 days on a 1,070 Wh Jackery Explorer 1000 v2.

Can I run the router from USB?

Some routers run from a 12 V DC or USB-C supply, which skips the inverter loss. Match the adapter’s voltage and polarity to your router’s input.
