I am sure you have heard the news, global warming is causing extreme weather. Hurricanes and flash flooding are worse than ever and hitting new areas that aren’t as ready. This could cause days and even weeks without power. Maybe it is time to look at an Affordable home backup power solution.
Earlier this year, Anker introduced the new Anker SOLIX brand and the company’s new line of home energy solutions, including several products for homes and apartments. Today, Anker SOLIX unveiled the Anker SOLIX C1000 Portable Power Station and Anker SOLIX F3800 Portable Power Station at the IFA trade show in Berlin, Germany (STAND # H3.2-201), redefining a new standard on power energy independence.
“With the next generation of Anker SOLIX power stations, consumers can access reliable power storage in any situation,” said Shaun Xiong, General Manager of Anker and Anker SOLIX. “It’s not just about powering outdoor adventures, but also ensuring they have a dependable home power backup solution at an incredible savings over traditional home backup solutions. We believe in energy independence for our consumers, and to power a sustainable future together.”
Anker SOLIX C1000: Reshaping Efficiency and Longevity
Fast Recharge with HyperFlash™
With HyperFlash™ technology, the Anker SOLIX C1000 can fully recharge in just 58 minutes with up to 1300W input power when connected to a wall outlet. When paired with solar panels outputting up to 600W, the power station can be fully recharged in just 1.8 hours.
Long-Lasting with InfiniPower™
Anker’s proprietary InfiniPower™ technology, combined with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries that can last up to 3,000 charging cycles, as well as ultra-durable electronic components, a smart temperature control system, and an impact-resistant structural exterior, ensures the C1000 is built to last for over a decade, even with everyday usage.
The Smallest 1kWh Portable Power Station
The C1000 is 15% smaller than power stations with the same capacity, yet its ultra-compact structure and stackable design ensures efficient heat dissipation, making it the perfect choice for both outdoor activities and professional usage.
Non-stop reliable power
The Anker SOLIX C1000 can hold up to 1056Wh of power, which can be doubled to 2112Wh with the addition of the BP1000 Expansion battery. It can power up to 99% of appliances, including devices such as CPAP machines, laptops, Wi-Fi routers, lights, a mini fridge or even aquariums during blackouts, thanks to its 2400W AC output via SurgePad™. The C1000 also features an uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system with a switchover time of less than 20ms, ensuring a virtually seamless transition for devices to keep running during power outages.

Anker SOLIX F3800 – The Most Accessible Home Power Solution
Designed to provide users with not only a backup battery but also an accessible home power solution, the Anker SOLIX F3800 will be the first power station to feature AC coupling and support home solar power cycling, paired with the Anker SOLIX Home Power Panel to provide a complete home power cycle. With the F3800, homeowners can enjoy a complete home power system that can be easily installed in a few hours by a professional electrician.
“We are really excited about getting the F3800 into the homes of our consumers,” added Shaun Xiong. “Not only does it offer a powerful storage option with an expandable form factor, but it will do so at a significantly reduced cost compared to more traditional home power storage options; helping to address one of the biggest hurdles of battery storage ownership.”
Additionally, as a power station, the F3800 offers 6,000W AC power output and 120V/240V dual voltage output, enabling it to simultaneously power high-energy devices, such as washing machines, dryers, and even a full-size refrigerator. However, its substantial 240V output can be connected to an optional (pre-installed) transfer switch, for a seamless handover from the grid to backup batteries, ensuring a user’s home stays powered during any outage.
More impressively, the F3800 boasts a massive 3.84kWh internal battery for peace of mind when the power goes out. With the SOLIX F3800’s expandable form factor, users can customize their power storage needs with up to 26.88kWh by adding up to six additional batteries and providing a week of home backup power (usage dependent). As part of Anker SOLIX’s Flex series, the F3800 will become Anker’s most powerful and most efficient power station to date.
For the ultimate usage flexibility, the F3800 can be transported with ease, thanks to its “suitcase design” with a retractable handle and large wheels. It also integrates a NEMA 14-50 RV port, making it the perfect tool to power RV appliances. Electric vehicles can also be charged without the need for additional grounding accessories. This means EV users can connect their vehicle’s charging cable directly to the Anker F3800 at 6000W/240V to charge it for up to 140km (87 miles) with the six expansion batteries, providing a convenient charging solution at home, even when the power is out.
