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)

Love this and really all Anker Products I've used to date. First off it's very light and compact for a 1 kWh battery. The nominal output just blows away typical UPS type backup equivalent - although this is a little pricier. The app is very easy to setup and use, and also fun to mess around with. Use wifi instead of bluetooth and it seemlessly allows connectivity through the web, so you can monitor from anywhere. I love the Time of Use mode, which will pass through A/C load during Mid-Peak times, charge the battery when most cost effective to do so, and also drain a set perecentage of the battery during the costly Peak cost windows. It also does the math for me to know the tangible cost savings as time goes by. I'm looking to eventually purchase either a bigger brother (F3800 Plus, or E10) in the future, as I really trust Anker as a brand. Their product features, aesthetic, and quality are truly top notch.

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.

Bought this on black Friday so got a good deal. This is the first Large power station I’ve had. I’ve used Anker products in the past with great success so I was hoping the same with this. So far it’s been great. I used it for the long stormy winter we had in the NE. Storm mode is a cool function. It charges fast and charges items fast. App is well done and functions well. Easier to move around than my generator and safer too. I’ll still need the generator for larger items but this is nice for shorter outages and small power demands. Happy to have this and

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 have two of these. One is used as a UPS for our desktop computer/router/etc. It's nice because it does pass through charging so you keep it plugged in and leave it be. I check the app occasionally - it's handy but I don't use it that often. Another advantage of it is it has 2 140 watt USB-C ports. I run cords up to our desk for those and use them for charging cell phones, tablets, laptops, etc. It saves money by not buying 140 watt chargers. When we first got it I also tried using it in place of a generator to run an electric pole saw to trim some branches on part of our property. It worked well for that. It's smaller than our 2,000 watt Honda generator - and still got the job done. The other one I use at the storage unit where I run my eBay business. It will run everything from my shipping label printer, some extra lights, my air packing bubble maker, small laser printer. The thing is great. I only spend a few hours there most weeks. I take the thing home to charge it somewhere between once a week and once a month depending on how busy I am. They've only been out for several months so it's too early to tell on long term durability. However given Anker's reputation it's a safe bet that it will work long term. I haven't run into any issues with either of them. They just work!

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.

I haven't had the chance to charge with solar panels yet so I will update review later. So far wall charging is fast. Just like advertised. Plugged in fans, lights and phone chargers and works great.

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.

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

The best solar generator so far after trying 5 different generators. I intend on purchasing a bigger more powerful generator of this make in the near future.

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.
