Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2

The Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 is a 2,048 Wh station with 2,400 W of output, a 10 ms UPS and five AC outlets, including a TT-30 outlet that plugs straight into an RV. It can keep a fridge, router and a few lights going through a day-long outage or power a camper, and one extra battery doubles it to 4,096 Wh. It weighs 41.7 lb, and its list price sits well above the usual street price, so it pays to wait for a sale.

How long does the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 last?

With nothing else plugged in, a CPAP with its heated humidifier runs about 51 hours on the C2000 Gen 2, six full nights. A full-size fridge lasts about 39 hours, and a Wi-Fi router and cable modem about 70. Add one BP2000 Gen 2 battery (4,096 Wh total) and that fridge runs about 77 hours, a little over three days.

Runtime for 18 common devices

One device at a time, from a full charge. Devices that cycle on and off (fridges, freezers, heaters, pumps) use their average draw.

Battery Wh × 0.85 ÷ the device’s average watts. “Can’t run it” means the device needs more than 2,400 W or a start-up surge above 4,000 W. Try your own mix in the calculator.

Is the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 right for you?

This suits a home that wants a day and a half of fridge power now, one simple way to double it later, and maybe some RV trips. Its built-in TT-30 outlet plugs straight into an RV. It also gives you five AC outlets, three USB-C ports up to 140 W, a 12V car socket and a 10 ms UPS switch-over for a router or computer.

Next to the Jackery Explorer 2000 v2, it holds almost the same energy (2,048 Wh against 2,042 Wh), but it puts out 2,400 W instead of 2,200 W and takes 800 W of solar instead of 400 W. Next to the DJI Power 2000, it has less output (2,400 W against 3,000 W) but more surge (4,000 W against 3,600 W). It takes solar directly, while the DJI needs an add-on, and it is 6.8 lb lighter.

The catch is how far it grows. One BP2000 Gen 2 battery takes it to 4,096 Wh, and that is the limit. If you might want more than three days of fridge power someday, the DJI goes much further. At 41.7 lb and 18.1 inches long, it is also a two-hand carry.

What we like

  • 2,400 W output with 4,000 W peak handles most kitchen appliances
  • Built-in TT-30 outlet plugs straight into an RV
  • Expands to 4,096 Wh with one BP2000 Gen 2 battery
  • 10 ms UPS switch-over protects a router or computer

Watch out for

  • 41.7 lb, a two-hand carry
  • Only one USB-A port
  • List price is much higher than typical sale prices, so wait for a sale

Consider instead

Questions about the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2

Can the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 power an RV?
It has a built-in TT-30 outlet that plugs straight into an RV. Output is still capped at 2,400 W, so run one big appliance at a time. A full charge covers about an hour of microwave use.
How long does the C2000 Gen 2 take to charge?
About 88 minutes from a wall outlet alone. Solar input goes up to 800 W, so a full refill takes about two and a half hours of ideal sun and longer in real conditions.
How much does the extra battery add?
One BP2000 Gen 2 doubles it to 4,096 Wh. That takes a full-size fridge from about 39 hours to about 77, or a fridge plus a Wi-Fi router and modem from about 25 hours to about 50.
