A review of the Anker Solix C1000 power station and the expansion battery. I look at the pros and cons and test the inverter, UPS feature, round trip battery efficiency and sample the noise generated by the device when in use.

This looks like a very good product. The demo of the 'instant' switchover to the computer was excellent. Perhaps you could include a demo of the Anker running an electric kettle, air fryer, microwave, electric drill, etc. Even two at the same time. This is the type of thing it's made for

That’s a fair point. I tested the inverter with max load but didn’t do any loads with potential inrush current. To be honest, I’m not a power tool guy 😊 and don’t have many to hand but I can absolutely try to do some testing through other means. Kettle and microwave, I can manage 👍🏻

Great video thanks. Have you tested the new solix c800 plus unit yet?

@af1023 Месяц назад

Excellent review, thank you.

Great review. Did you notice what the minimum power draw was that engaged the fans? And at that minimum draw, how loud would you say the fans were?

I have this Anker C1000 with the expansion battery and I like the size and weight for easy portability unlike the Bluetti AC200P I also have👍I’m a fan now of the Anker brand of products!

@matthewwakeham2206 Месяц назад

I think the Anker solix c1000 really hits the sweet spot for these power stations. If they want to send me one for review (and the add on battery) that would be very handy! I have bought the Anker Powerhouse 555 and you are right, the size and weight is about right at 12-13kg. The 555 is limited to 1000 watts and I know that the c1000's 1800 watts would power everything i need except the kettle and you could get a travel or caravan kettle if that was an issue. On the noise side the 555 is very quiet never seeming to make more than a low rumble and often completely silent. When it comes to the % capacity i think the power stations measure watts vs VA so devices with bad power factor (fighting the inverter essentially) can throw off the estimated capacity reading.

I have started using the Solix 522 as an ups in my home office. It is working fine so far, but one gripe I have is that the 522 turns off power to its ac ports after I power off my system for the day. I have to hit the button on the device to re-enable the ac plugs. This seems to happen when I’m not drawing power (and I think you could argue it is not a bad feature). Does the Solix C1000 do the same? Unlike the C1000, the 522 does not have an app - so no remote control. This could be an issue if I needed access to something and was not home.

I just got my external battery hooked it up seen both the C1000 and C1000X app said I need a firmware update I did it says v1.43 now I can't see the C1000X is there a way to back FIRMWARE OUT ? DELEDTED APP AND REINSTALLED no luck Anker closed :(

@mickm9307 Месяц назад

Hi - you mentioned a low self discharge or drain on standing with everything switched off. Do you actually have a figure for this? Eg 1% drop per week? 2%? Etc Thank you

@tdcattech Месяц назад

Sorry, no. It was more of a quick observation. Using AllPowers and EcoFlow products, they can lose a few percent each day (more in some cases) where the Anker was still sat on 100%.

@mickm9307 Месяц назад

@tdcattech Thank you that's encouraging and not good news for the other two!!

I think it's called "phantom drain".

@user-oj8ss4zq3x Месяц назад

These aren’t reviews they are commercials. In saying that I purchased this when all of the RU-vid videos were trying to push the discount code that ya didn’t even need to get the discount.

@tdcattech Месяц назад

Why would a commercial talk about bad aspects of a product? All these videos are exposure and free user testing and research for Anker but there are many videos I’ve done which are most certainly not commercials. I’m looking at an Allpowers R1500 at the moment. I don’t think the review will help sell products.

1056Wh is not enough, Anker needs to release a C2000

i bought i dont like it. wanna bluetti, bluetti more universal and capable for more. only one advantage in anker it is a smaller. but bluetti more made more smarter. from design corpus is closed on a bottoms open for verification only upper half part, the sockets higher, if in the car is mor convenient to use, on ground it is more far from ground, bluetti charging from ev stagion for cars, bluetti produce spetial adapter made especially for bluetti power stations. anker theoretically can use similar but it isn't. anker less universal. for me anker it is almost useless.
