The Solix C2000 Gen 2 carries a list price of $1,499, which is pretty average for the industry. But preorders drop it to just $749, or a major 50% discount. For a 2,000Wh portable power station, a price of $750 is a heck of a deal. Considering we're coming into fall and winter storm season, this could be a great pre-holiday purchase. Snowbirds who pack up the van or RV for sunnier winter weather are also in line for an awesome upgrade thanks to Anker's addition of the Solix C2000 Gen 2.Read J

Could you do a comparison between this Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 and the Bluetti AC200MAX? I know the Bluetti is a bit older now but it is still a very popular choice in this price range.
