Anker - SOLIX C300X DC Portable Power Station w/60W Solar Panel 288Wh/300W Soalr Generator for Outdoor Camping&Emergency (288 Wh Capacity) - Black

I work with Road safe Traffic Systems and I use this device to charge all my equipment and also my phone and it keeps it charged throughout the day I could just hold it on my side and charge up my phone and my radios and whatever else I need charged and I can play music and the greatest part is I don't have to recharge the portable charger that often this portable last me weeks before I have to charge it I love it

I’m extremely happy with my Anker SOLIX C300. It’s compact, reliable, and packed with features. The fast charging is impressive, and the solar compatibility makes it perfect for outdoor use or emergencies. Battery life lasts longer than expected. Most of all, it gives me peace of mind knowing I’m always prepared. Highly recommended!

Awesome product. Very useful for me. Battery charges fast in sun, but charges blazing fast with 2 USB C fast chargers. Only thing I wish it had was an AC outlet, but otherwise it's perfect. Don't forget 80/20 rule and keep it upright!

I have a number of power banks that I use for camping and overlanding trips, but I haven’t been all that happy with them because they just don’t have the charging capacity I need for my phone, laptop, cameras, drones, and other devices I use when going on extended camping and overlanding trips. I’ve been looking for a better, higher-capacity power bank and came across the Anker Solix C300X DC portable power station which I have been using and testing for several days. Thus far is has proven to be very portable and provides a tremendous amount of capacity for recharging my devices, exactly what I was looking for. This particular power station kit comes with solar panels and cables for charging along with a car charging plug. As I spend a lot of time off the grid the solar panels are a tremendous upgrade effectively producing unlimited power. Upon first use the instructions say you need to “recharge it to activate the power station” and explains several ways to charge it, one of which is to use “your own cell phone charger to activate”. So no, a wall charger is not included in the box, just something to be aware of. That’s not a big deal to me, I have tons of them as I’m sure most people do, so for initial charging and activation I used a 65w wall charge that I have along with the 140w charging cable which is included in the box. The power bank came with a 30% charge and it took just slightly over 4 hours to fully charge. As I read through the instruction manual it states that the two 140W USB-C Input/Output Ports can be used to recharge simultaneously, so next time I’ll try plugging in a second charger which should cut the charging time in half. Another thing to be aware of is this is the C300X DC power station, so it provides DC output only. It is great for charging devices that have USB and USB-C outlets. But there is no AC output/plug, therefore, you cannot run things like small appliances. If you are looking for a power bank that has AC outlets be aware of this and choose the other power station. Over the past 4 days I have been charging my various devices numerous times and the Solix power station is still at 92% of charging capacity. To me that is remarkable. I also took it out ice fishing one day just to test it in cold temperatures. This was in the Colorado Rockies at about 10,000 feet above sea level. It was 10 degrees that day with 15 mile per hour winds (so about a minus 12 degree wind chill) and the power station worked perfectly. A month later I took it to the Utah desert camping . I only camped for 3 days so my testing was limited to that timeframe. But between the capacity of the power station and the solar panels to recharge it, I had fully charged devices (cameras, phone, laptop, drone) the entire time, it was fantastic! The power station also has a pop-up light which will came in very handy during my camping trip. It has three different levels of brightness, the highest of which is extremely bright (the attached picture shows the lowest brightness level). I’ve seen some advertisements of this product on the interweb with people taking the Solix with them on hikes with the long strap attached to the unit and draping it over their shoulder. To me, that is a bit of a reach. I do a lot of backpacking/hiking and I just don’t see taking this power station on something like that due to its weight. While its only a little over 6 pounds I think there are better/smaller power bank options for hiking or backpacking. But that’s not why I got it. For multi-day overlanding/camping trips I think it is absolutely perfect. It would have been nice if Anker included a carrying bag for all the components of this kit, i.e., three different cords, the solar panels and the power bank itself just to keep everything together. But they didn’t so I’ll have to come up with something. Right now I’m just using the box it came in. But that’s a small gripe. Overall I think the size and power is excellent for my purposes. Highly recommended.

Used it for Coachella all 4days. Speakers,fans,cells
