Just based on a quick search, the average refrigerator / freezer combos use about 1,429 watt hour per 24 hours. Based on that, this should run one for about 16-17 hours. However, these aren't 100% efficient, so I believe it will be more in the 14-15 hour range.

Obviously, if you have a super-efficient appliance, it may last longer. If the goal is 24 hour minimum, then you should look more for the 1500-2000 watt hour capacity.

This is fine, but there was a deal a while ago for the Anker F1500 which is superior to the C1000 in every way for $500.

These batteries are dropping in price right now due to an oversaturated market. The longer you wait the better the deal, so weigh your options if you need something absolutely now or can wait.

Your fridge doesn't run continuously. It will pull 550, or more likely something even lower like 300-400W, for just a little while and then shut off until it needs to run again based on the thermostat. The more often it is opened, the more it will have to run. The math isn't as simple as you make it sound.

What is recommended if I want to plug my fridge / freezer in during a power outage and I want it to last say 24 hours until it is restored? I want to get something that will provide that much power but get the lowest price option.
I'm wondering the same thing for a french door refrigerator and an upright freezer. I'd prefer not to get a generator that requires gasoline (or another fuel source) and a lot of maintenance over time compared to one of these type of batteries.

In the market for one, is this any good? Mainly for 2 to 3 day camping trips
I have a C1000 and like it pretty well. I wanted something that can run my CPAP while camping. If using the car DC adapter for my CPAP it will use about 20% of the battery each 8 hour night. This is with the humidifier and heated tube on (outside temp was 65 at night so not too cold.) We also used it to charge flash lights and Ryobi batteries for a portable fan and it did just fine. I like the app so I can see how much power things are pulling from it.

We've also used it to power both the fridge and chest freezer during short (less than a day) power outages. It will run them for about 6 hours if the appliances are at temperature already, but runtime would be significantly less if trying to cool them back down from a higher temp.

I wouldn't plan on using it with a coffee pot or electric cook top while camping. One pot of coffee drains it about 75%

edit: I should note that I got it in a bundle with the 200W solar panel for $950. The panel is nice to have, but it's large/bulky and it will take a full 6-7 hours to charge the C1000 in direct sunlight/near perfect conditions. I don't think I would get it again for that price, but I see the bundle is currently $800 and it might be worth it for the $150 less than what we paid.

My fridge is 550watts, so 550x24 for just one day without solar.Thats 13,200 watt/hours and this is ~1,000 watt hours. Do the math.

How about the $391 Ecoflow Delta 2 on Amazon?
Seems like a great deal for a slightly older unit. The AC inverter efficiency and fan noise on those units aren't great, and the AC ports being on the back is a bit awkward IMO, but for that price it seems like a solid choice.

That sounded like a crazy good deal and I wish I bought then in prep for the hurricane about to hit me in Tampa....

I meant the F1500, was a typo, but yeah, was a crazy deal. I'm in same boat as you, maybe next time we'll be better prepared.

Yea I bought the c1000 just to have something. Probably will pick up a 400w renogy bifacial panel local for $125. Those foldable panels are super pricey. Could have 800w in parallel and likely max out this solar generator at 600w because inefficiencies, although these bifacials really do stand a good chance to hit their rated limits.
I think the panels will fit in front of my hurricane shutters which is already dead space Mostly in the garage. I guess panels are big and heavy but not exactly thick which works to my advantage.

If anyone is wondering how long these guys run a fridge, I've just watched two YouTube video reviews and both ran their fridges for around 11-12 hours non-stop on one charge with this unit. They had standard-size top/bottom fridges I believe.

If anyone is noise sensitive, then don't buy it. It makes an annoying droning noise when charging and sounds like a blow dryer when under high load. Read some of the reviews before buying.
It's also not returnable, which is pure BS. It does require special handling when shipped but it's not that big of a deal.
