Anker SOLIX Showcases its Latest Portable Energy Solutions at CES

Anker SOLIX is the company's biggest consumer brand, dealing in off-grid and portable energy solutions, of nearly all shapes and sizes. At CES, the company debuted the SOLIX X1 Home Energy solution, The SOLIX F3800 portable power station; C800 Plus portable power station; and the C1100. The X1 Home Energy Solution is a highly modular, scalable power solution that out to eat the lunch of the Tesla Powerwall. A set of high capacity lithium ion batteries connect to an AC inverter with a 6 kVA continuous output, and 12 kVA surge for 10 seconds. Each of its up to 3 battery modules can range between 5 kWh to 30 kWh. Anker worked on keeping the noise down, and the fans ventilating the switching machinery in the power module put out under 40 dBA of noise. Three of these X1 units (one for each phase); paired with a separate solar power source, and you're ready to go off-grid (assuming 18 kVA for a typical household).

The Anker SOLIX F3800 is about the size of an ATX mid-tower case, is wheeled, and backs a large enough battery pack to power every appliance in your kitchen, thanks to its 6 kVA single phase AC output. Under the hood is a 3.84 kWh battery pack. Among its numerous low-voltage DC and AC plugs, is a NEMA 14-50 RV port, so you can run power tools off of it. If you've beached our EV, this thing can deliver 240 V single-phase AC power to your car at 6,000 W, giving it an up to a 140 km of range with its six expansion batteries.
The SOLIX C1000 is meant for campers, and is a small portable power station that can be expanded with an additional battery pack. The C1100 features fast charging, as it pulls 1300 W off AC wall power, or 600 W off DC solar panels. It has a total maximum power output of 1.8 kVA through six AC outlets that can be configured as 120 V or 240 V. In addition to the AC plugs, there are two USB-C ports, one with 100 W PD, the other with 30 W; and two USB type-A with 20 W PD, each. There's also a 12 V car port (120 W maximum). Internally, the C1100 packs a 1,056 Wh battery, which is expandable using a BP1100 module that has an additional 1,056 Wh battery.

The SOLIX C800 is a further compacted portable power bank. Designed squarely for camping, this one has a top compartment with flashlights. It has a total maximum power output of 1.2 kVA, using a 768 Wh battery. It has five AC outputs, and four USB outputs that have a similar configuration as the ones with the C1100. The C800 supports fast charging by pulling 1100 W from an AC power source, with which it can tank up in under an hour. It supports solar inputs for up to 300 W.
