When time comes you need to recharge the Anker Solix C300 itself, you’ll be able to get it back up fast. Starting from 0%, you can bring it back up to roughly 80% in less than two hours when using either of the USB-C ports that work at 140W. If you want even faster charging, you can actually plug into both of those USB-C ports for dual charging. Connect each one to an outlet and you can get it up to that same 80% in about half the time.Read W

Weighing just over six pounds, this lightweight solar generator is perfect for powering small electronics, whether you’re off-grid camping or enjoying an outdoor adventure. Learn how the SOLIX C300 can even handle a mini fridge, fan, or portable projector, making it ideal for nighttime entertainment under the stars!Watch A
Nice improvement from anker 548 with its 192 Wh but which does not have LFP type of batteries compared to this new Solix C300 series which has LFP 288 Wh Solar input anker 548 is 10 - 24V 3A (60W Max) My test of solar charging from 0 -100% is 0,0167 192minutes 60watt 192,4 wh so 3 hours and 12 minutes Solar input from new Solix C300 is 28V (max 100Wat) so even bigger panel can be connected.Watch W
That's freaking awesome. This is a really big box and it's from Anker, and I couldn't be more excited to unbox this. I bought this on release day. The day it was available to order it, I purchased it. Now, Anker did send me the C300DC. This is the AC version and I paid my own money for this thing. Ladies and gentlemen, it is right here. This is the Anker Sollex C300 AC. This is the AC version.Watch N Nordic Gear Lab NGL · reviewer · Mar 2026
If your setup looks like mine and you want a compact, DC-first power station for Starlink Mini, Apple devices, camping, and short off-grid trips , I think the Anker SOLIX C300 DC is excellent. If you need AC power , then this is the wrong product. But if you mostly want efficient power for modern low-power gear, I think Anker got the balance here very right.Read T
Although it may look like a small portable power bank, this by far has a lot of flexibility and the things that this offers will actually outshine some of the other ones that we're going to take a look at today. And of course, we're also going to be talking about the big guy. This is the C300. Technically a little bit bigger than what we're getting there, but also offers us a few other options.Watch N
I just bought one, been living in my car since a forest fire destroyed the box truck I was living in that I converted to a tiny home/rv. I had it registered as an RV with the state. Anyway last year I got a 700 watt hour Blue yeti, and it works pretty good but I noticed that I don't hardly ever use the AC outlets.Watch A
The Anker Solix C300 DC is tiny, with a massive 288Wh battery and high powered 140w USB-C ports packing a huge punch.Watch T
C300 DC dazu gekommen. Bei den aller ersten Modelle war noch gar keine Abdeckung für den Auto Port dabei. Inzwischen ist die Abdeckung direkt am Geäuse befestigt. Ob nun X oder nicht wirkt sich soweit ich das sehe hauptsächlich auf die Farbe aus. War ja bei der C800X auch schon so.Watch S Seyyah Ressam Seyyah Ressam · 116K subscribers · Feb 2026
So, if you're looking for something more powerful than a power bank, but more portable than a full-size power station, the Anker Sollex C300DC hits a sweet spot. Compact, rugged, and packed with ports. It's basically a mobile charging hub you can take anywhere for short trips or outdoor adventures. This might just be the ultimate travel power companionWatch T

The Anker Solix C300DC powerstation has been the perfect fit for me. It is a great small lightweight powerstation that can also be used as a solar generator. After 6 months testing it, I can say it is the best one I have ever tried for my needsWatch S
Theres one information that is not 100% correct, the C300 AC does not support dual usb c charge, only the C2 port can charge, only the C300 DC as dual 140w usb c charge input.Watch O

One of the things that sets the Anker SOLIX C300 DC above other portable power stations is that Solix app. The Solix app does more than let you download firmware to the Anker SOLIX C300 DC to improve its performance over time, but it also enables you to control some of the functionality of the Anker SOLIX C300 DC. Not only can you have detailed readouts for power usage, temperature, and moreWatch I Instagram Instagram post

The Anker Solix C300 DC portable power station changes the rules of camping power. For years, campers and overlanders had to choose between a small power bank with no solar charging, or a heavy battery box with cables, controllers and chargers everywhere.Watch T
I like the little Anker C300 DC (kind of obsessed with that pop up light also). More petite I'm going to buy the Anker S2000 when it reduces price.Watch N
The Solix keeps my Starlink powered for hours on its own, but paired with the solar panels, I’ve streamed full-day tournaments—8+ hours—with battery to spare. I also share a helpful power hack using the car socket for additional USB charging ports.Watch G
After testing, it has earned its rightful place in my camping and caravanning setup, and will help keep our USB-C devices charged on the go.Read L
I've been relying on the Anker SOLIX C300 for my camping getaways and road trips, and it never disappoints. The 288Wh LiFePO4 battery keeps my laptop humming for work sessions, charges phones multiple times, and even runs a small fan through hot nights. Hooked to the 60W solar panel, it sips sunlight to recharge steadily, even under partial shade.Watch J

And so the Anker Solix C300DC wins my vote. Perhaps the only drawback is the lack of a wall charger as standard in the box. But to Anker's defense, this is quite common in smaller power banks. So it's not really a dealbreaker, but I'd still want Anker to throw in an AC wall chargerWatch W

great review ---great size = lower weight ---but to be fair, all those other 288 WH power banks actually keep the inverter out of the power cycle (with an on/off button) when it is not being used to power AC devices, so the DC output comparison should be on the same level ? ---however this C300DC model, as tested by another channel, only delivered 255.5 WH, which works out to a 11.2% (power overhead) for the duration of the 12.5 Volt capacity test, yielding 20.Watch B
Today, we're looking at two options from Anker, the Solex C300 and the Solex C300 DC. Hi, I'm Branson from Best Reviews.Watch W
Bought the Anker Solix C300 as a UPS unit for my office computers I like the fact I can add more battery to it using any other smaller battery's I have lying around, But have to admit I like the other one for the added options as well may buy that one to Thanks for sharing love all the extra detail you add to your reviewsWatch L
This model makes more sense if most of my gear already works via USB-C, USB-A, or a car outlet. I think it is suitable for camping, traveling, shooting, working remotely with a laptop, and emergency charging. It also works well as a more powerful battery for desktop equipment. I wouldn't choose it as my only backup power source if I needed to power AC devicesWatch E
I purchased one of these units recently and used it to power a Starlink Mini remotely. The C300-DC kept the Mini powered for 12.5 hours. Using cables and charging equipment I had with me; I was only able to charge the unit at 67W using both USB-C charge ports.Watch A
I'm pretty sure that the Anker Solix C300 (AC) is not 6 lb, closer to 9 lb, maybe you can look into this and make an annotation correction? Maybe you looked up the DC version weight.Watch J
I like both devices, however the limited AC output does make it not as useful and limits what can be plugged into it. I might get the DC version.Watch G
A compact, value oriented power station intended for device charging and small appliance useRead C
C300 with the same battery capacity as the c300 DC is not worth it.Watch
