Can the AFERIY P180 Pro 1800W portable power station run a complete 100-watt ham radio station for an entire camping weekend? I test it with a Xiegu G90, XPA125B 100W amplifier, 30A power supply, Pentium Gold mini PC, and monitor, turning each device on individually to measure the real AC load. With the entire station keyed down at 100 watts RF output, the complete setup draws only about 300 watts from the P180 Pro’s 1024Wh LiFePO4 battery.

Using those real-world measurements, I calculate estimated operating time with no solar and with 100W, 200W, 400W, and 500W solar arrays. The results show how battery capacity, inverter output, solar charging, and actual ham radio duty cycle work together, and whether a 1kWh solar generator can realistically support an off-grid HF radio station for a weekend of camping, FT8, CW, portable operation, or emergency communications.
