Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station, 2,000W (Peak 3,000W) Solar Generator, Full Charge in 49 Min, 1,024Wh LiFePO4 Battery for Home Backup, Power Outages, and Camping (Optional Solar Panel)

I rarely write reviews but I felt compelled to do so for this unit. I live full time in a small camper van and have had many power stations over the years. Jackery, Bluetti, varying sizes capacities and outputs. This Anker unit is by far the best power station I have ever owned. It is absolutely fantastic. The 49 minute charge time was such a game changer for me. With the use of a small generator I can now power all of the AC appliances in my van for several days off of only an hour or so of generator use. Alternatively, I can charge it at the library and be in and out in less than an hour. On top of that, it's relatively small and light, well made, and has a intuitive user interface. The app also has a lot of really handy features and customizable settings. I know this review probably sounds sponsored at this point, but I assure you that is not the case. I really just can't recommend this unit enough. If you're on the fence about it I'd say just spend the extra money and spring for this one. It will pay for itself in the time and effort it saves you. So long as it continues to work without problems, I give this Anker power station 5/5.

I purchased the Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 as my primary power solution for camping and emergency backup. Paired with a 200W solar setup, it has exceeded my expectations for both speed and reliability. Performance Under Heavy Load (AI Coding) This unit isn't just for charging phones; it handles laptops as well, with ease. I tested the SOLIX while running my Dell Latitude 3550 (Core Ultra 7 155U CPU / Intel ARC Integrated GPU) at full performance. Even with a heavy AI coding workload pulling approximately 60W of power from the battery, the SOLIX managed the pass-through power perfectly. While connected to solar, the battery never dropped below 99% during an hour of intense work; it would consistently hit 100% and automatically manage the charging cycle. CPAP Reliability My primary goal was to ensure I could run my CPAP machine indefinitely while off-grid. Nightly Draw: A typical night uses about 17% of the SOLIX’s total capacity and I consistently wake up with the unit at 83% charge. Charging Versatility The flexibility in how you can "refuel" this unit is a standout feature: Renology 200W Rated Solar Panel Suitcase: This solar setup (pulling about 154W in clear Utah skies) recovers that 17% in less than 2 hours of decent sunlight. AC Wall Power: On a standard 110V outlet, it is incredibly fast—charging from 83% to 100% in about 15 minutes. DC / Vehicle: From a standard 12V vehicle accessory outlet, it takes just under 2 hours to top off that same 17% margin. Solar: Even with a 10ft 12AWG extension cable laid flat on my truck's tonneau cover, the intake is efficient and stable. Pros Incredible AC Charging: 15 minutes to top off a night's worth of CPAP use is a game-changer. Smart Power Management: Seamlessly handles high-performance laptop loads while charging. Rugged Build: Reliable for vehicle-based camping and emergency use. Cons Storage/Protection: The unit really needs a protective case with pockets for cables and accessories. Between the XT60 adapters, the 10ft extension, and the AC cord, there is a lot to keep track of, and a dedicated storage solution is missing. Bottom Line If you need a reliable way to maintain a power station for medical devices, high-end development work, or off-grid living, the Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 delivers. It provides the overhead and recharging speed to keep you running indefinitely. I am already considering adding a second set of identical panels to push this setup even further.

This is a great power station that balances weight, output, and capacity in a convenient form factor. It has plenty of AC and DC outlets to power all your supplies. It charges very quickly with AC or solar and has great battery life. The app is very handy and offers easy Ethernet and Bluetooth connectivity. Protip: Invest in one of the TATAVR carrying bags sold on Amazon. It protects the power station and makes it easy to carry, with big pockets for cords and accessories.

Bought to use as an uninterrupted power supply for my office setup since i work from home. Works great so far! Its small enough to keep under my desk without being in the way. Set up is really easy. Its basically plug-and-play but with the option to use the app for more control. When you run it on ac mode while its plugged in, it bypasses the battery and pulls power directly from the wall to your devices, so its not constantly cycling the battery or running the inverter. There are a bunch of options and preset profiles in the app to manage drain/charge cycles and min/max charge settings. Im running it with the standard profile with a max 95% charge for now. Im pulling about 55 watts through it across two power strips plugged into the ac ports. No issues whatsoever after a almost a month. I havent actually experienced a power outage with it, but when i manually unplug the power station from the wall i get no interrupted power. All my modem and router lights stay on and connected. Not even a flicker in my monitors. The switch is almost instant. Oh and since its pulling power directly from the wall in "UPS" mode, it is completely noise free. The inverter (and fan?) only kick on when it is powering ac devices from the battery pack directly, but it is pretty quiet even then. Kind of like a small desk fan on low. Will update after i experience my first outtage or if any issues arise.

This is the perfect little unit to run several smaller wattage things at once on say a camping trip. I've also used it to power a CPAP machine for a couple nights. The App is really easy to use. The unit itself is sturdy and good looking. The screen is easily readable and using the menu functions on the unit it pretty easy if you don't have the app. As soon as it is fully charged outta the box, make sure to use the app to see if there are any software updates as mine did. It's really easy to do just hit "update" and the app and unit will take it from there. It can hook up to WiFi so you can use the app remotely as well as Bluetooth function. At the price point I got it at (on sale) it was a no brainer purchase for me. Recommend for lighter duty power alications, but it powered my cutting wheel no problem for the time I needed it. Comes with car adapter cord for charging and you can hook it up to a solar panel.

Ik wilde het aanvankelijk terugsturen omdat we een andere gevonden hadden maar toch blij mee omdat deze anker solix handzaam is. Uiteindelijk blij mee.

Ottimo prodotto funziona alla grande, testato con vari elettrodomestici (lavatrice, macchina da caffè, tv, frigo, ecc.). Collegato anche con pannello solare 400w e carica bene con tanto sole.

Super Gerät, schnell geliefert sehr gut verpackt, bin sehr zufrieden. Die App-Steuerung ist einfach und effektiv, mehr braucht es nicht. Werde mir bald noch den Zusatzakku bestellen.

Descontenta
