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.

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.

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.

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 tool for camping or working outside. Saves running cables everywhere. Runs.. Hair dryers straighteners jigsaws router's and a small 800w heater no problem. Fast charging is great. We haven't bothered with a leasure battery for our van as this product does everything we want. Love the app aswell.

Great portable power station, got at a great price on black Friday, the solar panel is amazing been using the solar at home before fishing trips. Used it for 4 days off one charge - charged another anker (smaller 300w) power station off it and still came home with 25% charge - didn't have solar panel on the trip. Weight is it's only down side. It's heavy but it's powerful

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.

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
