Second Chance - Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station

The Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 gives you extra freedom with power, without making things complicated. It’s a power station for times when you don’t want to rely on one location or a single outlet: at home as an extra energy buffer, in the shed, in your work van, and while travelling, for example at a campsite or in a holiday cabin. With 2,048 Wh of storage and 2,400 W of continuous AC output, it’s ideal for everyday devices such as laptops, lighting, a modem/router, and cooling, with enough headroom for higher-demand appliances when needed. Want more storage later on? You can expand it with one additional battery to 4,096 Wh (BP2000) or 5,120 Wh (BP3000).

Charging is fast and versatile. Via AC wall charging, the C2000 Gen 2 supports up to 2,300 W, so you can get it back up to level quickly. You can also charge it using solar panels up to 800 W via the XT60i input (11–60 V). If you use solar and AC charging at the same time, solar power takes priority and AC tops up the rest.

With 4 AC outlets, powerful USB-C ports, and a 12V connection, you can power your most important devices at the same time. You get 2× USB-C up to 140 W, plus USB-C 15 W, USB-A 12 W, and a 12 V car outlet (120 W). For higher-demand appliances, there is also SurgePad™ up to 3,000 W (works especially well with heat-generating appliances). For home use, the C2000 Gen 2 is also practical as a UPS: during a power outage it automatically switches to battery power within 10 ms, so connected devices keep running.

Despite its performance, it remains practical to use. At 18.9 kg and 459 × 250 × 257 mm, it’s easy to move between different locations. With the Anker app, you can keep track of status and consumption and set useful options such as charge and discharge limits and Time-of-Use (TOU). Connection is available via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
