Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus

M Minute Man Solar KillaBeave · owner · Jun 2026

Have a 3800+ with 1 expansion running the house through the Home Power Panel. Also had a generator cable run down to the basement so I can recharge with the gas generator during an extended outage. Spendy for sure, but we had an outage not long after the install was complete. I didn't notice, the wife noticed when she saw the clock was off on the stove. She understood the investment after that!

So, to wrap this up, the Anker Solex F3800 Plus isn't just another backup battery. It's a full home power system. It's efficient, expandable, and it gives you real peace of mind during blackouts. If you want a backup system that just works every single time, this one is a solid choice

The Anker F3800 Plus is a beast, and we think it rightfully won this Anker vs EcoFlow showdown. It earned more points for real-world functionality, which was mostly thanks to its much larger inverter (6kW), stronger surge performance, higher solar input, higher number of outlets, flexible charging rates (up to 6kW with expansion batteries), and Anker’s much better customer support.

With the peak energy usage due to air conditioning, the F3800 Plus not only keeps my home comfortable during power outages but also significantly reduces my energy bill.

A Androidauthority Article

Not only is the power station super capable and full of ports on its own, but Anker has created an ecosystem that makes this a great battery to battle power outages, set up off-grid living, and more. First things first: the Anker F3800 Plus is expensive! It has a retail price of $4,799. It’s a worthwhile investment if you can take advantage of everything it offers, though.

The Anker Solix F3800 Plus is the best storm backup power station I've ever tested. It powers your whole home. It runs for days. It recharges itself with solar and from your generator, and it's built to protect your family for the next decade

S Shark Numbers juangonzalez-pz8cl · owner · Sept 2025

I'm surprised and relieved that I made a good investment. I'm still paying on this generator, but paying over time made it financially manageable for me. I started prepping during the winter, so I'm all set on cold-weather needs. Now, I'm planning for hot weather -- fans, more water for me and the critters, etc.

So, the Ankor Sollex F3800 Plus, I think it combines everything that you're looking for. the homegr, the portable flexibility, and it's one of those power stations that you can either power up things at home or take it on the road or literally just take it anywhere that you need energy. And compared to similar units on the market, I think the build quality and the smart features, they really stand out

P Popular Mechanics David Dritsas · reviewer

With a max wattage of 6,000 watts, the Anker F3800 Plus had no problem handling the combined load of a miter saw, table saw, blender, and space heater when we put it to the test, demonstrating its tremendous power output.

So, this right here is the biggest power station that I've ever used. So, this is the new Ankor Sollex F-3800 Plus, and I partnered with wellbots.

Whether you're preparing for a power outage, outfitting an off-grid setup, or powering tools and appliances on the road, the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus delivers unmatched performance and expandable battery capacity.

Well, it has been a lot of fun testing out the new Anker Solix F3800 Plus. I'll leave plenty of links down in the description if you're interested in any of this equipment. I think this is a very good solution for someone who doesn't want to build their own, but want that 120- and 240-V output. This is a nice portable system

T Thesolarlab Article

If you want the most powerful single-unit power station with unmatched expandability, portability, and premium design, go with the Anker F3800 Plus. It’s simply the more capable backup power system.

But the F3800 also has caster wheels. It sounds small, but those caster wheels does really help you get it into a tight corner. Whereas with the Delta Pro 3, you kind of have to walk it back and forth and almost do like a 16point turn to get it where you want it to go. Splitting hairs here, but for the versatility point, we're going to give that one to anchor

So whether it's powering a small cabin or an RV or a house just with one unit or expanding it and running an entire house completely off-grid, the Anker Solix F3800+ is really a good option

P Pcmag Michael Lydick · reviewer

The Anker Solix F3800 Plus is a powerful, expandable power station built for serious whole-home backup, offering 240V support, strong real-world performance, and flexible charging options.

So, no matter what you need to survive the next storm or crisis, this device will probably handle it. 6000 watts of power, 120 and 240 V output voltage, the ability to combine two such devices to get 12000 watts and, of course, the ability to add batteries for many thousands of watt- hours. I think this is a premium device , and probably the best one I've reviewed on the channel. These things have already become legendary on the internet, and I'm glad I added this to my stash

They're much louder than this unit right here at and this unit at double the wattage. So, that is a a nice feature as well. It's All of these are going to have fan noise, but this was pretty quiet

This innovative power solution has some new features including a higher voltage limit for faster solar charging and a Generator input adapter that allows you to recharge from a 120v or 240v gas generator very quickly!

T TechUtopia Julietqueenlani · owner · Nov 2025

This Anker powerhouse is a total game-changer! With a whopping 6,000W it's the ultimate flexible power solution for anything you throw at it.What a darling companion.

Anker released the F3800 originally over a year ago and the community pointed out a few limitations that prevented a lot of people from moving forward with it. with the F3800 Plus, Anker fixed the solar input, and they fixed the problem with being charged with AC while delivering AC power for both 120v and 240v. They've been listening, and now it's a truly respectable full house battery system!

No gas. No fumes. No noise. The Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus runs your whole home on battery: 6,000W, safe indoors, solar-ready, expandable to 53.8kWh.

Looking for the best solar generator for home backup, EV charging, RV trips, or off-grid living?

H Hewes news, views, and reviews. rolllex5410 · owner · Oct 2025

This is a really elegant solution, especially if you don’t currently have the Anker. Lets you use the gas generator until the Anker arrives.

Let's say you have a 2500-3200 watt solar station powering this unit, you could use this air conditioner all day and still have enough power for most of the night, especially considering the compressor's cycling. This is what I've been looking for for a long time: a battery and inverter powerful enough to handle all the loads in a motorhome, running all night, combined with solar panels and a generator as a backup power source. This device really meets all my requirements. Portable, energy-efficient, quiet, reliable and versatile

A AVERAGE JOE c.y.997 · owner · Mar 2025

Best video on the F3800 Plus and dual power hub. Really like my F3800 and looks like on March 12th I will love my new F3800 Plus too!

The Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus is designed for exactly this kind of use—it's a robust home backup power station with built-in UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) functionality, allowing seamless switching to battery power during outages (typically within 20-50 ms).

S Shane Starnes Abcd1234-i7e · owner · Aug 2025

If the F3800 Plus can run an AC and a fridge for hours, that’s already a huge upgrade over sweating in the dark.

So, the electrician is literally on his way today. So, what we're going to do is um I'm trying to make it as convenient as possible for my wife and I'm trying to make it so I don't have to pass through open windows at the moment. If I wanted to run off this, I would have to pass a cable through an open window to the inlet, which would come in and feed this.

The F3800 Plus isn't as portable as other batteries.

K Karen Todd Karen Todd · 265 subscribers · Oct 2025

In conclusion, the Solex F3800 Plus is one of the most powerful, reliable, and easy to use portable power stations I've ever tried. It solves a lot of real problems. Weather outages, unreliable grids, needing quiet power for RV trips, or just keeping devices running anywhere you go. I found it to be fast to set up, easy to use, and packed with smart features that add real value

5-star rated. 6,000W output. Trusted by thousands.

In conclusion, the Anker Solex F3800 Plus portable power station has totally changed how I think about home backup power. It's reliable, surprisingly simple to use and doesn't require much tinkering once it's in place. The power capacity is enough for just about any daily emergency, and the ability to expand is reassuring. Whether you just want peace of mind for blackouts, want to take clean energy with you on the road, or need solid power for bigger appliances, this unit covers almost every base

And so uh yeah, very very happy with the the unit. Um, it estimates right now under the current load, you know, 1300 watts that I'll have 2 and 1/2 hours of remaining battery. Um, I do aim in the future to buy a second unit. Um, you can buy a second unit over here that has a second breaker to allow two units to power.

My installation of my two Anker Solix F3800 plus units and the Anker Home Power Panel. We bought this instead of the large expense of a standby generator and gives us immediate power failover in a power outage. Quick demo of the failover too. This system provides all critical loads backup and supports up to 12kw output. Also can be charged via generator interlock with a clean power source (like an inverter generator). Also all ready for solar input!

If you live in Canada and have a F3800 (normal or plus), Anker just stopped allowing us to buy expansion batteries for the F3800. I asked them why and no good answer came out. Said to buy from Canadian resellers but no clue if those resellers will be out of stock on the BP3800 batteries for the F3800 (normal or plus). So will probably move to Ecoflow next setup I do.

D Diysolarforum Article

Seems to be an emerging pain point. I was able to get a permit in SC for F3800+ and HPP and solar panels on roof. Thing is, I didn't include the F3800+ on the permit application, just the HPP and panels. But since the inverter is tied in there that was a question. But Anker gave me their UL certs for the HPP and F3800+ and they seemed to be happy with that.

I put these head to head with westinghouse 12500 watt with a 2.4 gallon propane. The testing ground is a house with 2 fridge, 2 freezers, well pump, 4 ceiling fans and some power outlets (about 5). This lasted about 5 hours. The westinghouse lasted about 8.8 hours with that 1 tank.

Would it better to have 3 f2000 vs 1 f3800 plus? I can one of f2000 to keep my kitchen appliances going. I can have another run my computers and internet going. 3rd one, can serve as a backup, till the other 2 are charged up by solar.

In this review, we cover everything we liked, including the build quality, battery expansion options, and versatility, as well as what didn’t impress us—like one feature that turned out to be a little misleading.

A Anker SOLIX scootercrossking · owner · Mar 2025

The original F3800 is actually better for directly charging an EV with its built-in 14-50 outlet and a mode specifically for charging EVs which is what I use and primarily got it for 💁‍♂️
