Lighter, stronger and faster, but...: Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 power station review

[Redaktion]

The Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 is a compact yet powerful power station. Compared to its predecessor, it is lighter, provides more power and charges in under an hour. In addition to improvements, there are also a few limitations, as our Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 review shows.

I have and use the US model.

The LED light is a minor nit in the scheme of things. Get a USB based LED lamp. Turn on the port with your app, voila! Let their be light.

People wanted a lighter model just as powerful. The expansion option removal was because the take rate on it was a minor percentage of the purchases.  The expansions were being bought by people who undersized their wattage expectations.

This model fill a niche below people who need expandability.

I'm much much more interested in the customer service side of things having read multiple horror stories of Anker dragging their feet and struggling to find a courier that would be willing to ship a power bank never mind a 1kWh battety in case of having to return it.

I'd rather assemble an off-grid system myself.
