Common questions

How long will the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus run a home oxygen concentrator?
About 9.5 hours from a full charge. A home oxygen concentrator averages about 350 W, and the 3,840 Wh battery gives about 3,264 Wh after inverter losses. That is 11% of the battery an hour.
Will the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus start a home oxygen concentrator?
Yes. It needs about 1,050 W for a moment when the compressor starts, and the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus is rated for 9,000 W surge, 8.6 times that. Avoid starting other motors at the same moment.
Is the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus enough backup for a home oxygen concentrator?
Only as a short bridge. It covers about 9.5 hours from a full charge. A power station should never be your only backup for medical equipment: ask your equipment supplier what they provide in an outage, register with your utility’s medical-needs program, and keep the settings your prescriber gave you.
