SOLIX C1000 Portable Power Station, 1800W (Peak 2400W) Solar Generator, Full Charge in 58 Min, 1056wh LiFePO4 Battery for Home Backup, Power Outages, and Outdoor Camping (Optional Solar Panel)

Product comes well packed, and very quick to charge to full once taken out the box. The app is very easy to download and use. Only tested briefly at the moment using my portable shredder. Handle this well. Haven't tested the solar charging yet as weather is poor at the moment. Once weather good I will be trying power station with My jet washer. See how this works, so that I don't have to run cables through the house. The mains charging is very quick and it shows you on tge display how lo g you have left to charge and the power it's using. You can keep an eye on this through the app. So far gave found this very easy to use.

So glad I got one of these. Charges quickly, the phone app is very good and it delivers a lot of power. Just used it for the first time in anger when we had a power cut. It powered the air fryer easily to cook, then ran the WiFi router and TV for entertainment, and supplied light from the big torch on the front. Definitely worthwhile for home backup.

I originally bought this as a backup power supply for mains power cuts as I work from home and need to be able to keep working at the PC in those cases. The couple of times I needed it in that capacity it was still fully charged and ready to go despite having been sat idle for weeks beforehand each time. More recently I've bought a van and adapted it to support overnight stays and weekends away. I didn't want to wire the van for power, so using this for off-grid power in the van is perfect. It will last several days of my typical use (charging phones, tablets, LED lanterns, etc.). I've even occasionally powered a small oil filled radiator with it to keep the van warm overnight. Once or twice I've used it to boil water with my travel kettle too. Each full kettle (1L) took under 5% of charge so 20+ litres could theoretically be boiled from the fully charged power station. I've charged it with both 100W and 160W solar panels too and the only slight pain on that front is the input options. It has a standard 240V kettle lead input which charges the station pretty quickly if you are at home or have a mains hookup where you are camping. But, where a lot of power stations support a 12-30V DC circular pin style input this station only supports an XT60 connector which might make compatibility with some panels more tricky. I bought the station + bag option. The bag is good quality and all sockets and controls are accessible via the flaps. It comes with a handy zip pocket on the back that can take all the cables and more besides. I haven't left it out in the rain so can't comment on it's waterproofing but the zips are of the waterproof kind and it has protected the station from small quantities of rain as I've carried it to/from the van, etc.

Good power supply. A bit heavy but I can move it around easy. Not complicated to use, holds the charge well. I use it in my craft room for my radio, lamps, laptop and wifi extender. The only thing that drains it really quickly is my tiny 500w heater! Also useful as we live in an area that can get power cuts as it easily powers a small tv

It works to run gas Central Heating for 24 hrs, or freezer

This was a game changer for me. Well-built, super-fast charging and affordable. I have a disability, and part of that means I have to rely on a BiPAP machine to support my breathing while I sleep. I also live in a small village which suffers from intermittent power cuts from time to time, which means I end up waking in the night, gasping for air when my BiPAP loses power. Incidentally, I’m going to use the word ‘BiPAP’ a lot in this review - apologies in advance for the repetition! I bought this in the hope that it would be able to take the load in the event of a power cuts, and it does so exceptionally well. One of my key concerns was whether, in the case of a power cut, the battery would cut in fast enough that any attached equipment wouldn’t ‘notice’, and that it could continue running smoothly. So my first test was to plug in my BiPAP, turn it on and to unplug the power station from the mains while the BiPAP is still running. It worked perfectly, with no interruption. Secondly, I wanted to know how long the power station could run my BiPAP without mains power - would it make it through the night? So that first night I’d charged the battery to full and ran my breathing apparatus overnight (just over six hours that night). When I awoke, I still had 62% battery remaining, which means that in theory I could even go wild camping on Dartmoor for a couple of nights - something I haven’t been able to do in over a decade. The last test I thought I’d run was boiling a kettle, and again the power station passed with flying colours. While I wouldn’t use it for this purpose if I didn’t know how long a power cut would be going on for, it was good to know it’s up to the task. Boiling 1.5l water used up 13% of the battery. I know the way in which I use this power station probably isn’t the most common use case, but hopefully it’ll help someone feel confident that this is a very worthwhile product and, in my opinion, well worth the cost. I feel infinitely more confident that when I go to sleep at night it I’m not going to wake up, gasping for air.

One of the best Power stations on the market and comes with a set of 400w solar panels which can be increased to a maximum of 600w’s. The solar panels comes with the XT60 cable that plugs directly into the unit. (Just one thing the solar panels are a bit on the big side to be so called portable)

Great device but it was much better value when it dropped under £500. A bit pricy these days and no doubt a newer better version is on the horizon.

Voila 1 an que nous utilisons cette batterie principalement pour du car camping et alimenter un réfrigérateur BougeRV Aspen ainsi que la charge de tous les équipements électroniques. Lors du premier essai, il a été branché a la prise voiture et le Aspen. Nous avons eu la surprise que la batterie s'est arrêtés dans la nuit. Heureusement qu'il ne faisait pas trop chaud et le réfrigérateur était toujours froid au matin. Plus tard ce problème a été corrigé avec une mise a jour du firmware. Il me permet d'alimenter le réfrigérateur de camping pendant 3 jours (en plus de charger d'autres appareils type cellulaire) si la température extérieure n'est pas trop chaude. Au dessus de 25 degrés C, cela peut descendre a 48 heures. L'appareil est costaud même si un peu lourd mais les 2 poignées sont vraiment pratique a l'usage. Point que j'ai aimé c'est sa recharge, en une heure maximum, la batterie peut être rechargé complétement. L'écran est très lisible. L'application sur cellulaire est pratique aussi pour voir l'état de la batterie. Il faut parfois lui forcer la main pour reconnecter l'appareil dans l'application surtout en l'absence de Wifi. La disposition des prises est très bonne et je n'ai pas rencontré de problème de place avec certains cables de charge. J'ai par la suite et grâce a de belles promotions, acheté des panneaux solaires ainsi que l'extension de batterie mais a ce jour je n'ai pas encore pu les utiliser. La seul chose que je n'aime pas avec l'extension de batterie c'est le cable de liaison qui va vers le C1000 qui est rigide et trop encombrant. Un cable plus souple aurait été apprécié. Au global, très bon appareil et qui peut servir aussi en cas de panne électrique a la maison. C'est toujours satisfaisant d'avoir de la lumière, internet ou pour garder en vie un plus gros réfrigérateur le temps que la panne soit résolue. C'est un produit hautement recommandé

Update: Returned home after a 30 day trip back in May 2024, traveling from NC to upstate NY in our northstar SC 650,. We used this the Solix C1000 with the expansion battery everyday. Although It won't power our rooftop AC, it powered everything else. Came in super handy during quiet hours when we wanted to use our microwave, or keurig coffee maker and so on. We do carry a generator on board so at the end of everyday around 4-6 pm, we would start our generator and backcharge our entire system. Our onboard solar system would charge our "house battery" but the generator would top off the anker system in about 1-1.5 hours depending on how much power was drawn off the system. We keep the system in our camper and backpower through the shore power hookup. It worked flawlessly for the entire trip. It's pretty handy given the weight, I put the main system where we want it and then stack the auxiliary battery and hook them together with the provided cord. No regrets on this purchase to date. The C1000 and BP 1000 work well for our specific needs and physically handling the system wrt weight is just right! Hope this update helps someone out who is looking for a similar system for a similar application. After purchasing the solix C1000 and then partnering it with the BP1000, I have doubled the output watts I desire to power my northstar sc650 truck camper over a longer offgrid experience. Although I've not tested it on a multi day trip yet, but testing over several hours and running the things I normally would on shore power, I am extremely happy with what it can now power over extended periods of time. Literally running multiple items from our microwave, furnace, hot water heater, and more, when plugged into the surge pad socket with a 15 amp cord I am essentially running everything I need when I need it. The BP1000 discharges first and then will consume power from the C1000 and Vice-versa when charging the system back up. I believe that the system is setup this way so that the user will always have control over power charging and discharging The system does not have a pass through charge function but rather works like a UPS system in the sense that when plugged into shore power and backcharging, if power is needed to run something, the system will stop charging and immediately switch into ups mode and power what you need in the moment. Our plan is to use this system in campgrounds during quiet hours when gas generators cannot be used. Based on our particular wants & needs, I Would highly recommend. I wanted something small but that packed a high watt output when I need it. So far, so good. Boondocking in my northstar truck camper I am able to backpower the entire camper with the Solix C1000 for about a 24 hour period. This depends of course on what I am running. Occasional microwave oven use, my fridge on propane setting, lights, water pump, even the hot water heater and hot air furnace, again, limited high use items. Only used so far on 2 overnight trips. Next morning I use an 1800-2200 watt generator to power the anker back to full from about 15% only drawing a set watt charge of about 750. The generators rpm only increase a little bit and the anker is charged in about 1 hour and 30 minutes. I could increase my charge watts to 1000 and be done inside of 50 minutes or less but I want to break the unit in several charge cycles first and I like running my generator on eco mode. The anker is not heavy at only 28 lbs and I can set it up on my campers kitchen counter or just about anyplace else inside my rig. I bought it for $650 from amazon, anker Direct, and it shipped to my house in under 5 days and came in just under $700 total, a great buy in my opinion. I am looking to eventually buy the expansion battery to give more power in depth but am in no rush at this point. I am 100% satisfied with this small yet powerful unit. It definitely lives up to what it says it can do, also, the app is simply incredible. Great job to the folks at anker. Highly recommended, just do your homework on what you plan to use it for. I've been a goal zero fan for years but it's the older led acid yeti 400 and 1250 units. Great products and they still work great, I also have the ego nexus system and run 7.5 amp batteries on it, again, great units all around but this anker system takes the cake. Size, weight, power output, and charge times is what sold me!! Happy shopping.

Awesome product - exactly what I wanted and as advertised. Bought to run nespresso machine camping and media setups. Great addition to weekend away setup.

After seeing many good reviews for the Power Station, I decided to purchase one for my camping trips. I am glad I did. I have another Portable Power Station from Conpex with similar "Specs", but, oh boy, the difference is huge! In combination with my 400W Solar panels, this thing basically never runs out of power when I use it with my electrical camping gear. Although I never had to use it for this purpose, I also think that should there ever be a power outage the Solix C1000 will be a good addition to my household to keep essential appliances running. AAA+++

Delivery was quick and convenient. We just got to use it and it worked very well for us. We were running 3 x 3 foot long led lights (like a flouescent light but LED) and my cube battery made them flash on and off like a disco, but the c1000 lit them perfectly and kept them.going for almost 5 and a half hours. We did have to budget time a bit but it was great to have light when the clouds rolled in. We also tested on a 750 watt heater and it provided less than an hour so we bought a Heater Buddy from Canadian Tire as we needed it right away and for $160 plus $25 for fuel we had great heat that was running 3 - 5 hours per canaster depending on high or low setting. So for a heater I would not recommend the c1000 but for small devices like lights and computers and accessories, it works perfectly and we are very happy with the unit.
