Anker Solix F3800 Portable Power Station
The Anker Solix F3800 Portable Power Station combines power capacity and versatility with future expandability and solar charging potential. It’s an excellent option to have on hand for power outages.
There’s a lot we love about this portable generator, as you can see in our detailed Anker Solix F3800 review. At roughly the size of a mini fridge, the Anker Solix F3800 packs a whole lot of power into a small, compact footprint. Its boxy design makes it easy to store in tight spaces, and it doesn’t stand out as an eyesore when it’s in use. The power station is heavy, weighing 132 pounds, but wheels and a handle make moving it around as easy as possible.
With six different types of outputs, the power station is also incredibly versatile. In addition to standard grounded 3-prong AC outlets, the Anker features NEMA L14-30R AC (commonly used for dryers) and NEMA 14-50 (commonly used for RVs and EVs) outlets, USB-C and USB-A ports, and a car socket outlet, so there’s no shortage of uses for it. It also has a stellar battery life, and was able to operate a fan, mini-fridge, and light for 20 hours during our testing, longer than most power outages are expected to last.
Bundling the Anker Solix F3800 with two solar panels is not only a better deal, but also means the power station can generate its own energy rather than just storing it, making it all the more efficient. With the current Prime Day deals, the bundle is only $500 more than the power station alone, as opposed to the usual $922, so you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better value.
