Perfect for tailgating or camping!
on December 1, 2025
Posted by: Kevin H.
This is an amazing portable battery power station! There are so many great things to say about the C1000 Gen 2! First, the design is wonderful. It is small, mighty. . . beefy to pack in the power, yet compact enough to take with you wherever you go! The handles on both sides are perfect for moving this bad boy around! While it has some weight, it is light enough to hold with one hand to make moving around even easier!
Yes, this thing charges super fast! From zero to one hundred in no time at all! Even without the fast charging turned on, it will get to 100% in no time at all! This is powering it from a regular AC outlet. But, it also comes with a 12V DC charger so you can power it up from your car while you drive to your destination. If you want to go completely off the grid, get some solar panels and let the sun power you up!
It is so easy to use! Just hold the power button down for a couple seconds and it comes to life ready to power your needs! Plug in your USB devices and instantly see them start to charge. Push the button by the AC outlets to turn on the inverter and you are ready to use your AC devices wherever you are! Need to power a 12V DC device away from your car, easy as that! And to make it even easier, this power station connects to bluetooth and Wifi so you can manage it inside the Anker Solix App. From there you can turn on and off the different outlets and see how many watts your devices are using as well as an estimated amount of runtime based on what is plugged in!
Now, for the important part. . . how long it lasts! I have used this for camping and watching football primarily, but I have also used it for charging batteries, lights and cameras as well! I have a 43" TCL TV that I use for watching college football when I'm outside in the backyard, a campsite, or wherever. Want to use an electric pump to get that air mattress ready so you aren't sleeping on the ground in your tent because you aren't as young as you used to be. . . this is for you! I also use an Apple TV for streaming as it works better than the TCL SmartTV features. So, those 2 devices plugged into the C1000 Gen2 have run for approximately 15 hours of streaming! 15 hours of TV streaming football power from a portable power station! If you are planning a tailgate, camping trip, or just want to watch TV in the driveway. . . this is your power source! I have also plugged in an Epson 3600 lumen HD projector and the Apple TV for streaming those important games on the big screen. That sucks up a little more power, but this power station provides over 5 hours of power at full brightness!
Let's not forget that this thing is great when the power goes out! Power up a few lights to avoid using candles, or more importantly, power up your refrigerator so your food doesn't go bad! This thing gets the job done all in a small and easy to use package!

I am so glad I purchased this when I did as I recently had our power out so I was able to use it to power my fan and c-pap machine while I waited for power to be restored.

Working beautifully, so far, and has done everything I’ve asked of it! I feel a lot more comfortable knowing that we have a hedge against power outages.

I've tried many similar products, but this one stands out perfectly. The features are practical, user-friendly, and reliable. Definitely a must-have item that delivers exactly what it promises every single time.

Very Disappointing

Very disappointed with this. My unit worked for about a day before being fully depleted by a 5W draw (small fan). Now it will not charge by AC or DC despite multiple resets and attempts.

Abit disappointed that they removed the capacity to add the expansion battery on the new model but overall it is still a good buy
