Ottimo per i nostri viaggi in famiglia

Sto usando da alcune settimane l’Anker SOLIX C300 DC PowerBank (288Wh, 90.000mAh) e devo dire che è diventato il mio alleato fisso sia in casa che all’aria aperta. La batteria agli ioni di litio ferro fosfato (LiFePO4), molto affidabile e duratura (oltre 3.000 cicli), garantisce che la centrale sia sempre pronta all’uso, anche dopo mesi in magazzino. Il peso e le dimensioni sono gestibili: circa 6 kg, dimensioni compatte (circa 16x16x24 cm) e una comoda maniglia per trasportarla ovunque senza fatica. Carica e gestione dei dispositivi La ricarica è rapida: con l’alimentatore da parete arriva all’80% in circa 50 minuti e può essere ricaricata anche via solare (pannello opzionale, fino a 100W) o tramite accendisigari in auto. Il display LCD è ben leggibile e mostra subito quanto resta di carica e quanto viene erogato. L’app Anker (via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi) permette di monitorare tutto da remoto, anche se per la gestione base basta premere i tasti sul pannello frontale, che sono ben fatti e immediati. Le porte di uscita sono numerose: 2 USB-A, 4 USB-C (di cui due ad alta potenza, fino a 140W ciascuno), una presa DC da auto da 100W, ideali per caricare contemporaneamente laptop, smartphone, tablet, action cam, router, piccoli ventilatori USB, lampade LED, droni e dispositivi a batteria compatti ma non apparecchi elettrodomestici di potenza elevata (es. stufette, frigoriferi grandi, aspirapolveri, etc.). La potenza di uscita totale è di 300W, con un picco di 600W, sufficiente per alimentare quasi tutti i dispositivi digitali portatili, compresi alcuni mini frigo o piccoli monitor. Utilizzo pratico Camping, gite, day trip, viaggi in camper, ma anche casa: l’ho usata come backup durante una breve indisponibilità di corrente e mi ha tenuto illuminato (grazie alla lampadina LED integrata molto brillante), in contatto (router, telefono), con musica (altoparlante alimentato dal C300) e laptop attivo per 2-3 giorni senza grossi problemi. Con una carica piena puoi ricaricare un laptop moderno 3-4 volte, uno smartphone 15-20 volte o una combo di questi dispositivi per un week-end fuori porta senza pensieri. Non offre uscite AC di tipo “prese di corrente” (tipo presa “schuko”), solo USB e DC, quindi è pensato solo per apparecchi a batteria e dispositivi compatibili con le uscite presenti. La ricarica “pass-through” funziona bene, anche se la potenza massima distribuita tra tutte le porte non deve essere superata, altrimenti il caricabatterie limita la corrente automaticamente per evitare sovraccarichi. Comfort ed esperienza L’operazione è plug & play: basta collegare il caricabatterie, accendere e attaccare i tuoi device. Il livello di rumore è molto basso (circa 25 dB), quindi anche al massimo carico non disturba in una tenda o in casa. Il materiale è solido e ben assemblato, i connettori tenaci. La garanzia di 3-5 anni (a seconda del paese di acquisto) e il supporto Anker sono ulteriori punti di forza. La ricarica solare non è fornita (va acquistato il pannello separato, Anker 100W consigliato per la massima compatibilità), ma funziona bene per chi ama il campeggio off-grid o vuole ottimizzare l’autonomia sostenibile. Aspetti da migliorare - Nessuna presa AC: non puoi collegare dispositivi che necessitano di corrente alternata classica (es. aspirapolveri, frigoriferi di taglia media, etc.). - Peso: non è “leggero” come una normale power bank, ma la portabilità è comunque molto buona rispetto alla capacità. - App: utile soprattutto per il controllo remoto, ma a volte la connessione può essere un po’ traballante (non blocca però il funzionamento manuale). - Pannello solare non incluso: se prevedi di usare spesso la ricarica solare, dovrai acquistarlo a parte. Vantaggi principali - Capienza e potenza: 288Wh, 300W, batteria LiFePO4, carica ultrarapida. - Versatilità: ricarica da rete, pannello solare, auto. - Silenziosità: perfetta per uso notturno. - Portabilità: compatta, maniglia, ideale per viaggi/escursioni/uso domestico. - Qualità e affidabilità: Anker è una garanzia, costruzione robusta, garanzia lunga. - App di controllo: per chi vuole il massimo del monitoraggio. In sintesi Se cerchi una power station affidabile, comoda da trasportare, con massima flessibilità di ricarica e sicurezza energetica per i tuoi dispositivi digitali, l’Anker SOLIX C300 DC è una scelta eccellente. Non sostituisce un gruppo elettrogeno né alimenta grandi elettrodomestici, ma per tutto ciò che è portatile, ti cambia la vita: ti ridà autonomia e sicurezza senza rinunciare alla qualità e alla facilità d’uso. Io la consiglio a chi fa sport outdoor, viaggia spesso o vuole un backup energetico smart e moderno in casa.

Great balance between capacity, portability, and features.

There are so many that just purchase without reading - Anker does not hide the fact that it does not come with 'accessories' - I prefer this, helps to keep the cost down (hopefully) reduces waste, and I already have so many of all the cables I need for this for all manners of charging/discharging. Sure, you might need to spend some more money to buy the necessary cables - say $50 for cables and a charger. Well, if Anker includes it for you, I guarantee the price would be more than the $50 over what you paid. Buy as needed. The Li-ion-32 marking on the bottom is a Japanese Recycling indicator. LiFePo4 is still part of the Li-Ion family. 3 = Iron, 2 = phosphore. Anker even has a Solix Support page indicating as such. The cells are LiFePo4 as marketed. Seems this was enough of an issue that Anker redesigned the label as mine states LiFePo4 and no mention of Li-Ion-32. I have not tested the capacity yet, just the initial charge. I received the battery at 30% charge according to the screen, and it consumed roughly 118Wh to charge, so I'll be sure to update this review as time goes on as I will run multiple battery tests on the unit. There will be a loss due to voltage conversion from the 19.2V cells down to 12V DC, and I will account for this. The build quality is excellent, just about as premium as you could get with plastic. The heft is of course due to the cells, but it does feel solid yet lightweight enough to carry. The buttons are very tactile, and the connectors do not feel cheap. The carry strap is a nice quality and I have no complaints there either. The light is very bright, and very white (cool white, I do prefer a warm light) and I like how I can have different light patterns from it. I do wish the 12v socket cover had a tether, I know I'm going to lose it, but it's great that the socket has a separate on/off button. The Bluetooth/wifi feature seems nice. I haven't and won't use the wifi aspect, but Bluetooth updated the unit just fine and controlled the features without problem from my iOS device. I do wish the power station had some security for the Bluetooth aspect to prevent others' from connecting if it happens to be on. Having high-power USB-C out is a big win for me as my laptop can consume it all and then some. A feature I'm glad to see is supported like a standard Solar Charge Controller, DC power-in (solar or DC power-in) and power out to my usb-c laptop, starlink mini, and 12v cooler, all working simultaneously, like how a UPS would work. The power drawn with all 3 devices running was greater than input capacity (100w in) so the battery did continue to drain, just much slower. When I reduced the load the battery did charge with the remaining available power that the starlink and cooler did not consume; fluctuating between 25w and 90w, meaning avaible power to charge the solix was between 75w and 10w. I will state that the marketing of 90,000mAh is so misleading and the standard should be just simply providing a Wh rating - if you consider each cell at 3.2v in this power station, then sure, 90,000mAh is feasible; however, the configuration of the battery cells makes this closer to 15,000mAh (as labeled). Given the rating is 19.2v, it's certainly at least 6S (6 cells in series), which means the capacity (mAh listed) does not increase with cells in series. Without taking it apart yet, my guess is 6S6P 3.2v LiFePo4 rated at 2500mAh cells. I don't plan to disassemble this for a while as I do not want to have any pushback if I need to make a warranty claim. With time I will update the post with performance details and disassembly if/when that happens. I paid $150 in Aug '25, and for $150, it's a great value with the features it has. I do recommend this for anyone looking for a lot of portable power for larger devices, compromising portability and capacity. It's a good balance for my needs.

Keeps your laptop running for a long time

We had a power outage recently that lasted for several days, but I still needed to work from home. It was kind of a tricky business keeping my laptop and cellphone hotspot charged up for 8 hours every day. So I bought this little device. It's got a huge battery (90,000 Ah) compared to most phone battery packs (10,000 Ah), but it's tiny (6-1/2 pounds) compared to most solar power stations (25+ pounds). It'll keep my laptop charged up for a good part of a day, and it can charge my cellphone for over a week if necessary. It's light enough to take camping, and the little popup lantern is really nice; the lantern draws 3W at maximum power, which lets it run for over 80 hours on a full charge. They claim it can charge from 0 to 80% in 1 hour using two 140W chargers; I have an Anker Prime 250W charger, so I could get 140W and 100W using two cables and it took about 90 minutes to go from 27% to 100%. It can also charge from 0 to 80% using 100W of solar panels in 2.5 hours. Keep in mind that solar panels only put out their rated power under perfect conditions; under normal use a 100W panel might make 50-75 watts, and less with any kind of clouds, shadows, high temperatures, dust, or poor alignment. It can be charged using a car cigarette lighter, but it doesn't come with the cable. If you have a Solix C1000, the car adapter that comes with it is compatible with this model too. The difference between the C300 AC and the C300 DC is that the DC version doesn't have any AC power ports, of course; it has a popup 360° lantern, it has two USB-C 140W ports, one USB-C 100W and one USB-C 15W ports, and two 12W USB-A ports, and it can charge using two USB-C ports at the same time. The AC version has a light that faces forwards only, it has only 3 USB-C ports (two 140W, one 15W) and only a single USB-A port, and it can only charge itself using one USB charger, not two, so it takes 1.8 hours to go from 0 to 80%; it can also charge using an AC cord (0 - 80% in 50 minutes), which the DC version can't do at all. The DC version is about 20% cheaper, and weighs 2/3 as much. Both have the same size battery. If you think you're going to need AC power, but not a lot (only 300W), the C300 AC is the better option, but if you have or are planning to get another, more powerful power station like the C1000, then the C300 DC is cheaper and weighs less, and gives you a better light and more USB flexibility.
