Portable Power Station SOLIX C300, 288Wh LiFePO4 Battery, 300W (600W Surge) Solar Generator, 140W Two-Way Fast Charging, for Outdoor Camping, Traveling, and Emergencies (Solar Panel Optional)

this little thing super convenient. i got this because i work and go to school remotely and like to travel often with my spouse. i ordered it on sale with the 60 watt solar panels, which have an IP68 waterproof/resistant rating. i would say it's a good deal on sale, but I wouldn't do full price for the panel set, as for the extra hundred there are 100 watt panels that will work with it at that value. i also didn't realize until I got this solar power bank that grid power is "dirty" and has imperfect sine waves, but you get pure sine waves with a solar battery/inverter. so, it's supposed to be better for device batteries. I really like the design of the battery, first of all. it's very stylish, which is just something i like for my electronics. Anker seems to have good quality control so i was expecting it to feel nice and it does. i was a bit disappointed that for the price, it doesn't come with the strap by default. i really think it should (i got a third-party case that came with one, though). this little power bank has 288 watt hours of juice, it's rated at 300 watts and a 600 watt surge. for example, that means with the battery at 100%, a device that draws ~200 watts could run for about ~1.7 hours. 300 watts is pretty good for small electronics up to things such as a laptop. it has lifpo4 batteries in it that are supposed to last longer than older kinds of solar batteries and allegedly arent flammable and such. it can run my laptop which is rated up to 240 watts. typically, my laptop draws 20-80 watts in normal use, such as in a word processor or internet browsing/video streaming, so it can run for a few hours this way (~5 on a full charge). intensive gaming on the other hand wouldn't last long on battery alone, but it does have passthrough charging (charge battery while charging devices connected to battery). you should probably use a watt hour calculator to see if its a good match for your intended use and devices. i have tested the laptop while charging the battery with solar getting about 50 watts input, with normal use again drawing about 20-80 watts, and it did keep it charged. the battery did start to lose charge slowly because my laptop can go above 50 watts during normal use, like i said. with plugging into a wall and grid power, im sure this wouldn't be a problem as it can get more than 80 watts from an outlet or USB C charging. a lower wattage laptop that draws 20-50 watts in normal use would work better for use while just solar charging with the panel it came with. a 100 watt panel would also work for a high wattage laptop to use while solar charging. the battery itself is very quiet, even when you're close to it. i really like the built in light, as the smaller model has a lantern style light and i liked that feature but that model has less power and function. back to the panels, they fold out and up nicely, they're not very heavy and super easy to tote around. easy to wipe off too. the cord can wind up a bit and be tucked under the elastic straps. i have encountered a bit of rain on the panels before quickly packing up and bringing it in, and it was absolutely fine. it is cold during my review, so the capacity/loss is probably more impactful than average, but it hasn't been a noticeable issue. I use it to routinely charge my phone and smart watch overnight, which uses a bit more than it needs (maybe 10% of the battery) because it gets left on and keeps them at 100% until morning obviously. a great feature to add to the app would be auto shut off with times you can set. the app itself does work, although sometimes it doesnt stay connected because im usually behind several walls when im charging it outside on solar. it does show the internal temperature of the battery while charging or using it, the watt input and output, and so forth. i wish it had a history section where you could review the use/charge/discharge on a timeline, like over 24 hours or something. it does get a charge with cloudy weather but this depends on where you live and how much solar activity there is. one photo is an example of it charging slowly while overcast, it was getting around 5-15 watts. as a side note, i also wish Anker made a first party case for it, but the one i got works well. in the future i want to try it with a 100 watt panel to see how it goes. i think its probably very useful for people who go camping or that travel often, or if you like to work outside like on a patio or balcony etc, or to just keep their device batteries charged with cleaner sine waves.

This is a neat, compact, and well-designed portable power station that’s easy to use and easy to carry. I really appreciate that it includes three standard 120-volt AC outlets and a common desktop-style power cord for charging from a wall outlet. It also offers multiple USB ports, making it very versatile for everyday use. I tested it in a couple of real-world scenarios. When powering my laptop, the unit dropped from 100% to 64% after two hours, which suggests it could run the laptop for roughly four hours total. When powering my home network equipment, it only dropped from 100% to 80% after two hours, indicating about ten hours of runtime for lighter loads. Recharging is quick, which makes it convenient to use regularly. The built-in handle makes it easy to carry, and the overall build quality is excellent. It feels solid, well-made, and dependable—exactly what you want from a portable power station. I haven’t experienced any issues during long-term use, and it has performed reliably every time. The companion app is straightforward and works well, allowing you to monitor battery level, charging status, and performance. While it may be more than casual users strictly need, it’s genuinely useful and easy to navigate. Overall, I highly recommend this unit for everyday, casual use such as charging phones, tablets, running small lights, or powering other low-draw devices. If you’re looking for a compact, reliable power station from a trusted brand, this one delivers.

Use it to power my Starlink, TV, Fan, Charge my devices, use my laptop and its so portable I put it in my car and strap on a seatbelt and carry it to my Dads to charge his devices after the Hurricane. The 60Watt panel works great as well even got over 60 a couple of times. Great little power Station very durable and well built. Charges very fast with the plug and charges from 0-100% in about 4 hours via solar.

I recently picked up the Anker Solix C300, and I have to say, I’m pretty impressed! Let me tell you why this little guy is quickly becoming a must-have for me: Worth Every Penny: For what it offers, I think the Solix C300 is totally worth the price. Anker is known for making quality stuff, and this power station lives up to that reputation. It’s reliable, easy to use, and just plain convenient. Small But Mighty: The Solix C300 might be the smaller sibling of the C1000, but don’t underestimate it. This thing is way more powerful than Anker’s 250W power bank, giving you a significant boost in capacity and versatility. This little buddy power’s small appliances with ease. What really sets it apart are the dual 140W USB-C ports, which are a game-changer for charging speed and convenience, it’s like having a mini power station without the bulk. Quick to Recharge: One of the things I really appreciate is how fast it charges. Whether I’m plugging it into the wall or using USB-C, it juices up quicker than I expected. I got it fully recharged in just about an hour(with wall charger), which is great when you’re on the go. Easy to Use: The display is clear and gives you all the info you need, like how much battery is left and what’s being powered. The built-in LED light, has come in handy more than once, especially when the sun goes down. Final Thoughts: If you’re looking for a portable power station that’s powerful yet easy to take with you, the Anker Solix C300 is a fantastic choice. I hope this review helps you see if this little buddy is for you.

Great device solidly built anker quality. Really liked that about it. Lots of buttons on it though that can be shut off by accidents. I did have problems with unit one connecting to internet and wifi. The app is superb. This item is not for computers! You dont want to be using it to power your hard drives or your computer. It takes too long for the unit to know if the power is gone and when it needs to start working. So expect frequent shut downs. It can be used for internet providing It an be plugged into a device that has a USBC power. The USBC works flawlessly and you wont experience internet problems- where it fails is on your other items that are plugged into the AC receptacles. Your hard drives will shut down and you will experience data loss. So it's not a good choice for that. Get something that is. HOWEVER the stuff that is designed for computers is so old and so unengineered that it just doesnt feel as safe as this anker unit. The size is great. I wish I could have kept it - I wish it would have worked for my application but it did not. Great product Anker bravo on that - your quality is awesome. You just need to ingrate something that works with today's electronics that can NEVER lose power. I find the run Time good and the charging is fast and I do like how you can tell the unit how much power you want it to charge itself with - bravo. I do have another one that works on a water softener and that DOES work really well. So for an appliance - go for it.

A very cool little solar generator. And little is not far from the truth. For its size it packs a big punch. 300 hundred watts of peak power. Pretty awesome. Included solar panel also a plus. Comes with all cords to charge in an assortment of ways. Plug into your outlet where available, 12 Volt car plug (cigarette lighter plug) , Solar panel , etc. You can charge all USB devices, USB C devices , a sliding panel exposes the outlet to plug in the solar panel for charging , and 3 AC outlets for lamps small appliances etc. Automatic overload shutdown if necessary. I highly recommend this unit.

This was a life-saver on vacation! It works well and charges quickly. Be aware that you have to push the secondary round power button near the output socket you want to use. For example, turn on the round main power button, and then push the smaller round button lower on the power station near the 3-plug outlets. That secondary power button then will light up with a tiny blue light. It's easy, but you need to know to turn on the secondary power button.

I am someone who relies on a product to do the task I need done. I will try any product out, however when I saw Anker made a portable power station, I bought it in an instant. I do not regret that decision at all. I’m even considering buying another one. What I liked about the system is it that it charges the whole thing in about an hour. You have no idea how important having an AC charger is for a portable power station. There are other power stations out there that are charged by a USB-C cord. They will take three times as long to fully charge andand you might need two cords. I don’t have a place to live right now. I also don’t have I don’t have three hours to wait to charge any power station, or electric device in the world. This works for me. The other day it charged from 3% to 100% in less than 57 minutes. I wouldn’t say everybody needs to charge their power station in an hour but if you use it for the next 72 then I think it’s worth it. And that’s about how long I have to charge once every three days give or take. Not everything is perfect in this world like the USB-C method. Yeah it’s fast and convenient but if you’re making a right term and you’re charging something and all of a sudden you have to come to complete stop USB-C cord isn’t going to be very happy. So my issue was one of the ports stopped working because of my own idiotic life. But there’s still two ports left. I have an idea for a resign, but I don’t work for anchor but if I did, I would take out the two AC ports, but leave one to charge And one of course for an outlet and add two more USB ports, but we’ve got to find a way to stop them from ripping out and ruining the port I wish I was technology that’s not even a thing, but you know how gas station pumps have breakaway hoses something like that. What I struggle with is USB-C technology. It’s fast and convenient, but those chords and plugs rip out a lot of times ruining the port and ruining the cable where they get stepped on or water or iced tea gets in there by accident. Regardless, this is a great product and I just thinkthink the technology needs to change, Beyond the product, which is a great price and a lot of power, the customer service support at Anker is one of the best. I’m not being paid anything to write this. I wish I was cause I could make it really sound good but I don’t need to. Anker is probably one of the best if not the best in chargers, cables, power stations, and I’m in need of a Bluetooth speaker now so maybe they’re the best in that department too. When you have an excellent product and a helpful and knowledgeable customer service department, you earn a five star review on Amazon and a customer for the rest of their life.
