Watts vary by model and age. Check the label on your own appliance and enter it for an exact answer.

Keeping up on solar

At 4 peak sun hours, counting 75% of the panel rating: 200 W of panels bring in about 600 Wh a day, 38% of the 1,590 Wh it uses at 6 h a day. 600 W of panels bring in about 1,800 Wh a day, more than the 1,590 Wh it uses at 6 h a day, so the station keeps up.
