Essentially anything you can plug into a standard 15A, 120V wall outlet. Backup's maximum output is 1,800W, with a 4,000W peak surge to handle the startup spike of motor/compressor appliances like fridges and blenders. Sustained (continuous) output for long-duration loads is lower and depends on ambient temperature and internal heating under load — typically closer to 1,000W over extended periods. Runtime depends on the device's draw and your configuration.
