The perfect starter power station
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with my purchase. I got this on sale for 200 dollars, and it is well worth it. The 521 seems to be advertised a bit more and seems to go on bigger sales, but to me having 2 USB-C ports and the slightly higher battery capacity makes it a better overall choice for me. My intended use case is to power a small portable car fridge (Pictured with power station) when the car is not on during my road trips so that our car battery does not drain, but the refrigerator continues to operate when the car is off. This is a really slick product in that you can use it while you charge it. You can also use the included 100 watt charger (AC or DC car charger), in addition to a USB-C input of 60W netting you a total of 160W of fast charging if you use both the USB-C and the power adaptor at the same time. The fact that they include a power adaptor for home and car use is a fantastic choice. Long term I plan to Purchase a gas generator and 100W solar panel to help this product serve as an emergency use item for around the house. I am particularly impressed by the fact that the display measures both electrical input into the device, and output simultaneously. This gives you a very accurate understanding of what your devices are using, and also it projects out how long the battery will last based on the current draw from the battery. The integrated light strip is perfect. It is not insanely bright, and it really does not need to be. For those that are curious, it draws 3W from the battery. While this power station cannot power more power thirsty appliances (there are heavier, larger and more expensive options for that), the 522's smaller and more portable size makes it a great starter when getting into emergency preparedness. The 10-year heavy use life expectancy of the battery makes this a better buy. In all, at 200 dollars, this was a tremendous value, and I am confident that it will serve my needs quite well.

"Activate" the power station before using!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Before talking about this great power station, let me alert you to instructions you need to follow to the letter. At the bottom of page 2 of the manual you are instructed to charge the power station to 100% before using. Mine arrived at about 80%, so I ignored the instructions and then spent a half hour trying to figure out why it wouldn't deliver any power. I finally noticed a hard to read sticker on the back of the unit that said to "Activate" the unit you first had to recharge it (completely). After doing this the power station worked perfectly. This power station is well suited for home power outages, travel, and camping. It has a good collection of outlets to serve most needs. I particularly like the included "night light". It draws only 3W, and provides adequate lighting for a small area - see my photos of it in a dark kitchen on and off. It can provide about 62 hours of light if nothing else draws power. This can be very helpful during an evening power outage. The unit is relatively small and lightweight, making it useful on long car trips for small items needing power the car can't provide. Finally, it is clear that this power station can be an essential item on camping trips! I find this power station to be a very good buy.

Awesome product.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Exceptional performance, with very nice grip to hold it, i used some other portable power station, but this is one of the best product i ever used. The best feature is, it tells on the display, how many watts the charging product using.

Super helpful for rural life and portable power
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live in a rural area with frequent power outages due to downed trees, which typically takes hours to days to get repaired. Honestly, I wish I had the Anker SOLIX power station much earlier, as it allows me to power everything needed to keep working though these outages. In the box is the power station, power cord, and car charging cable. Setup is plug and play, I did charge it out of the box, as it arrived at 90% battery. The features available starting from left to right are: car socket (12v cigarette charger style), with on/off button, display on/off button, 2 x USB-C ports, a USB-A port, two AC outlets, to include a spot for a grounded 3 prong plug (note portable units are not grounded by design), AC output on/off button, power saver slider, and below all of this a light bar sufficient to see where you are going in the dark. One interesting feature is that if you hold the light bar on/off button for two seconds, the light will go into an SOS mode where it flashes Morse code. There is also a DC input port on the back for vehicle or solar panel charging. Note that the solar panel is not included, but compatible with most 11V - 28V panels with the correct DC connection. The SOLIX is powered via LiFePO4, which are EV class batteries, and comes with a five year warranty, and claims of a 10 year lifespan. As far as usage, in the past 10 days of testing I've had two power outages. During the first power outage, I was successfully able to plug in my laptop, wireless hotspot, and phone to work for the last three hours of the day, with the power station still having battery left afterwards. The second outage was overnight, so while I wasn't prepared, I was able to quickly grab the power station and set it up to power my husband's CPAP machine and charge our phones, I'm estimating that total usage time was four hours and there we no issues in charging. Other features to note are low and high temp alerts, remaining battery time left, current wattage in/out during use, and the fact that it will stop powering a device once the device is fully charged. Normal recharging of the power station is 2.5 to 3.5 hours, depending on charging method. Other than the power outages, I have used the power station during trips and while outside at the teen's sports events. So far I've been able to charge 2x drones, phones, recharge my wireless hotspot, demo a 3d printer from the bed of my truck, run a powered drink cooler, recharge various batteries, and work remotely (phone, computer, hotspot). At any one time I typically have both AC ports and a USB-C port in use which has routinely been somewhere between 3 to 5 hours prior to needing to recharge the power station. Overall I'm really happy with the power station, the small footprint and portability has given me more flexibility to work from where ever, keep critical things going during a power outage, and charge batteries on the go.

Asked by BreezyBre1982.
- A:Answer Look at your device and find the power requirement for that device, usually stated in Watts. Let's assume it is 50 watts, the Solix 522 is rated for 299WattHours, so the 522 will power the cpap machine for less than 6 hours. The calculation is (Solix Wh) / (device W) or 299Wh / 50 = 5.98hours. Note that if the cpap periodically uses more than the 50 watts, the runtime is further reduced.
