Anker SOLIX C200 DC Power Bank Station, 192Wh Portable Power Station, LiFePO4 Battery, 200W Solar Generator, for Outdoor Camping, Traveling, and Emergencies (No Wall Adapter Included)ClimatePartner certified

I only really brought this to charge from solar. It works really well, the app is efficient, connecting to wifi is super easy and it works for checking the amount charged everywhere.Charging speeds are great, I always use all the Usb and Type C outlets at the same time, it works really well.Battery life is good, doesn’t feel like 60k mAh but capacity reduction exists unfortunately.The price couldn’t be better at £109 considering the Anker Prime 27,650 is around £140, for this to be more than double for a cheaper price and similar tech specs this is definitely worth the price.The weight is very heavy, around 2kg. I didn’t expect the weight to be so much for a power station with not much capacity compared to others, however it’s still portable with such a small size.

Useful product that seems well made. Bought it primarily for use with a Dokio 100W solar panel so we could charge phones while camping. Also useful to take on long car journeys so the kids in the back can keep their phones charged without needing to connect to the car's limited outlets. Charges my MacBook Pro as well, and can itself be easily charged from the MacBook's USB-C power supply. Seems to charge most USB A and C power banks as well (but see comment below).A couple of things to mention - sometimes when you plug in a device for charging, it doesn't immediately start the charging and you need to unplug and plug-in the charging cable for the device before it picks up and gets going.We have a Belkin USB-C power bank that won't charge from the C200 at all and I'm wondering if there's some clash of USB-C intelligence between some devices, when they negotiate who is charging who.Bluetooth app is handy although not essential for using - seeing how much power is going in and out of each port can be useful to check. If the C200 is at 100% charge and you have a solar panel connected, it doesn't register the panel as being present unless it drops in charge and needs to draw on some of the solar - it'd be nice if the Solar indicator at least always registered that the panel was connected but this is not a deal breaker.

Really great product, does exactly as described and although bigger than a conventional smaller battery charger, still fits perfectly in my bag with no real strain.

No plug supplied and takes about 5-6 hours to charge on a 30wat standard, charges devices well but if the charge voltage is too low it won't register the device. Great for indoors or in a car but too big and heavy to take backpacking or camping. Would suit campervan,caravan, boat or car camping.

Absolutely fantastic product. Keeps my laptop charged all day, and recharges quickly with just a 100w solar panel. It’s easily portable enough for a camping trip and will keep my phone charged for days on end! It’s well made and good value!

So so good! Absolute must buy it kept my phone charged for a whole five days! Still had about 10% left on it as well seriously this piece of kit is very very good! Definitely worth all the money beats any other products as well! GO ANKER!

Why did you choose this product over others?:I bought this for my work laptop, and it’s been a game changer, as long as your laptop can charge USBC. I did consider the larger one with the plug sockets but it's just too big to be carrying around, this one's size is manageable. Working from home, I love the freedom to move around—whether I’m heading to a café or stepping outside for a change of scenery. It’s also come in handy during power cuts; it keeps my laptop running through the entire workday and still has about five hours of battery left to spare. The extra flexibility and peace of mind have made my workdays much smoother.

First of all you should be aware that if for any reason you decide it's not for you and that you want to return it, then you will be met with a warning that this item isn't eligable for return due to it being a "restricted item" (probably meaning the amount of lithium in it). I really think that customers should be made aware of this first as you might think well if i'm unsatisfied I can return it. But you can't. Second of all the quality on these is not the best. And I believe mine was used. It had dirty marks on it, the screen protector looked as if it had been peeled off already and then stuck back down. So I'm not too happy I think this is one that some influencer got, reviewed and then returned to Anker and Anker were perfectly happy to sell it to me as a new item. After raising this with anker, they more or less treated me like I was a liar and demanded I take photos, videos and offer proof of this before they will accept a return. This is against the distance selling act. You can't demand someone make videos and stuff for you to accept a return. You can return any item, for any reason if it was sold to you without you being physically present. So this has soured my view on Anker especially since this is the second time this has happened to me now.
