Wow, that dryer reminded me to beef up the wires and breakers in our house. It eats more amps than my diy-grade welding machine.
@MrOner07
an actual test length video. thank you!
@braindeadening
Wow I didn’t consider how much power an electric dryer uses. 6000w is insane. I stopped using a traditional dryer a while ago and I just hang my clothes up and point my diesel heater at them for an hour.
@PatrickBaptist
Good video thanks, but if you don't mind, you don't draw or pull watts, watts is the output power, you pull or draw amps which is current @6:45 Amps in watts out.

Great experiment. Thank you for your time and video. Subbed

It's called math guys. I suppose there's something tangible about watching this stuff, but the result was predictable as the day is long. To the guys who are freaking out about the 120 amps of current draw, and thinking about checking their home's wiring, the wiring between the battery and inverter is the only place where the current is that high. From the outlet to the dryer' at 120VAC, is roughly 50A split between two wires, so 25A per wire.

First, I am new to this solar power thing. I find it amazing that you need close to 5KW of power to dry clothes, and a 6000 W inverter to do it. My electric bill in the winter is 42 a month and summer it’s 65-70… Than heaven for FPL..
@adriftatlas
After seeing a teardown of a scary looking battery by Jasonoid I really want to see the insides.
@blainecelestaine4543
30 min run 39% left isn't out of what I expected for that size battery . What's great about your vid is it helps the people battery/Gen pack folks have educated expectations before purchase.. This battery price is high tho

@stephensanchez5761
Can you do a video on how long will the EG4 6000xp and that 48v 100Ah LiFePO4 Lithium battery run a 4 burner electric stove top cooking some food.
@oogie-boogie
122 amps,,,, that's a holly crap to me,, that's more than me in the summer running 2 window ac units.... im glad we have a gas dryer,,, just daaaamn😳😳
@matthewknight5641
man... it looks like you have all kinds of batteries now.
@yvanpimentel9950
Portable ac will provide the heat using 1/3 the watts and you get air conditioned room for free.
@zodaguado6655
Good video man, I just need enough amps to keep my beer cold…. Tv and internet on ,,,, ill fold my chonies inside out 😂😂😂😂😂
@bertroekhoest8135
Oh my, 6000W used by a medieval dryer; I remember these things from 1999 when visiting Canada; is this a still considered 'current' in US? A modern day heat pump dryer uses less than 600-700W PEAK (and less than 1kWh) to completely dry 8kg in about 2-2.5h (cotton), including steam injection into the process to take care of the wrinkles and requiring barely ironing. Battery looks good though. Nice test.
@danieldevine
wHAT?! 6KW for a dryer... thats huge amount of power hahaha! I swear my old one in the uk that does pretty well is only like 2KW. That's crazy inefficient if the dryer uses that much.
@roatanbound2023
How did you wire up the 6000xp to produce all that power on the same phase? It’s split into 2x 3000W, right?
@martprice7726
What? wattage is your dryer? It will say on the back.
