Air fryer question

No, the load would be far too high for the batteries, you shouldn't discharge lead batteries more than the C5 rate which is 38 amps for your batteries.
The air fryer will draw approx 140 amps. Fit another 4 to 5 batteries or change to Lithium.
 
Or get yourself something like an Ecoflow Delta 2 while Black Friday prices abound. Best deals I am aware of for reconditioned models (which actually means damaged packaging and nothing else if that (My recon'd solar panel is pristine - even the packaging) are £599 on Amazon and £549 on Ebay - both those are from Ecoflow direct.
 
There is a small airfryer available at 900watts. From Asda. .I think or was also available in Lidll when on offer. £19.99.

I am thinking of buying the Ninja air fryer rated at 1550 watts, I have two 95 ah agms, would it work with a 2000 watt inverter?

I would suggest a 1.200w model. I use mine, also with 2x 95ah agms and 2.000w inverter, for around 1.5 hours to cook lunch and the batteries drop to around 65%, then the solar panel will recuperate the batteries in the afternoon, all the time there is sunshine. I do not use it at night.

That is crazy drawing 110 amps out of 190ah of lead batteries, they won't last very long.

Would still need 400 ah of lead batteries to run it.

I appreciate I will not get too many years out of them, but it does not matter, batteries are cheap.

Even if they are cheap very inconvenient if they fail when you are in the middle of nowhere. I had both leisure batteries fail when wilding in Greece, I would never touch AGM's again they are ones of all batteries most likely to fail. It is not just shortening their life you will find the capacity reduces drastically.

Yes, again, I'm aware of that thanks to the learned people on this forum, mostly, (including yourself), and I will go to lithium very soon. But meanwhile the agm batteries are going to pay their dues. I even get them down to 40% on occasions and they recuperate nicely. I do make sure they get recharged the next day and not let them sit on low charge.

I would go for a lithium with a max current supply of 200 amps. So that probaby means you need at least 200ah, 100ah batteries are often limited to 100 or 150 amps.

What size to go for depends on how much you are going to use the air fryer and what other equipment you are running and time of year you will be off gridd.

I have 2 x 230ah Fogstar and I can get though 70 to 100ah if using the air fryer and induction hob plus kettle in an evening.
Whish I'd fitted more now.

I have a 305AH Lithium battery with a 3000 Watt inverter, would this set up cope with a 2400 Watt Air fryer or should I go with a 1700 Watt Air fryer?
 
I would go smaller we use a 1400 watt air fryer it draws 125 amps when heating.
We have 460ah Lithium and a 3000va Multiplus (2400 watts).
 
What make is the 1400 watt air fryer and does it have 2 drawers please.
 
The smallest wattage two door Air fryer was 1500 watts so I bought it, however when I looked at it's label it was rated at 2400 watts! so sent it back, the one I eventually bought is rated at 1700 watts but what is bothering me now is does it use 1700 watts on one drawer and double if using two ?

Buy a plug in energy meter about £10 when I bought mine off eBay...plug it into the mains socket plug the appliance into it ..live readout of power being used.In my experience wattage on label is often wrong..my latest air fryer says 1400w both energy meter and van shunt show 1800w.. another way is to use a clip on ampmeter
 
We have a Progress by WW branded Air Fryer. It's 3.2L, 1300W and it runs perfectly on our 1500w pure sine inverter.
The 130 ah LiFePO 4 battery pack handles the 38 amp draw during the usual 20-minute cooking time without issues

We have a dunelm 1300 w single drawer for the van and a 2 drawer no idea the wattage for home, not a premium make.
If buying now would get the oven type for home.

Something not quite right there.

Your 1300W load will draw something like 120A not 38A.

If you run it for 20 minutes it will consume approximately 40Ah.

Perhaps that’s what you meant; it depletes your battery capacity by 38Ah.

We use this one in the van it’s a nice fryer at a good price at Amazon: we have a 300a Fogstar Drift Pro and victron 2000a multiplus
