Overview

The SOLIX C1000 (model A1761) is Anker's mainstream 1 kWh station: a 1,056 Wh LiFePO4 pack rated for 3,000 cycles to 80%, six AC outlets sharing 1,800 W continuous pure sine output with a 2,400 W surge rating, and dual 100 W USB-C. Wall charging accepts up to 1,300 W — Anker claims 80% in 43 minutes and 'a full charge in under an hour', but publishes no exact full-recharge figure, so that field is honestly null here. The MPPT solar input takes 600 W (11–60 V), high for the class. A BP1000 expansion battery doubles system capacity to 2,112 Wh. Anker markets a '<20 ms UPS' switchover — an EPS-style transfer, not an online-UPS class claim, so it is classified as marketed-UPS.

Variant note: Standalone base unit ('Go Without Solar' variant). Distinct from C1000X (retail-channel variant sharing the A1761 user guide) and from C1000 Gen 2 (separate newer product). Solar bundles and BP1000 combos excluded.

Data note: Original C1000 (A1761) remains listed and purchasable on the official US store; the newer 'C1000 Gen 2' (1,024 Wh / 2,000 W) is a separate product. acRechargeTimeHours is null: only the 80%-in-43-min partial claim and an 'under an hour' bound are official. Site spec data lists AC outlets as '6× NEMA 6-20' — a labeling error (NEMA 6-20 is a 250 V receptacle; this is a 120 V unit); the count of 6 is consistent across the page. Same-page inconsistency on UPS switch time (rendered '<20ms' vs structured-data '-') recorded, not resolved. Official user guide is JS-rendered on Anker's support portal and could not be parsed; no spec values were taken from it or any retailer.

Use cases

  • Home backup for appliances under 1,800 W, expandable to 2,112 Wh
  • Off-grid/vanlife with 600 W MPPT solar input
  • Router/computer backup via marketed <20 ms switchover
  • Camping trips needing six AC outlets

Strengths and weaknesses

Strengths

  • 600 W solar input is the joint-highest in this index's 1 kWh class
  • Six AC outlets at 1,800 W continuous
  • Very fast partial recharge claim (80% in 43 min at 1,300 W)
  • BP1000 expansion battery doubles capacity
  • 5-year warranty

Weaknesses

  • No exact official full-recharge time published ('under an hour' is a bound, not a value)
  • 2,400 W surge is lower than same-class rivals' 2,700–3,000 W
  • Pass-through charging behavior not clearly documented in parseable official sources
  • A newer C1000 Gen 2 exists as a separate product, so this platform is mid-generation

Use-case fit

Recommended for: CPAP Backup Portable Power (#3)

Also eligible for: RV Portable Power · Apartment Outage Backup · Home Office Backup · Vanlife Portable Power

Fit is computed from this product's normalized fields using each use-case page's published hard filters and ranking rules — see any linked page for the exact logic.

Comparisons featuring this product

1 kWh Class: EcoFlow DELTA 2 vs BLUETTI AC180 vs Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 vs Anker SOLIX C1000 vs Pecron E1000LFP

Five US-market 1 kWh-class LiFePO4 stations compared on official specs. All but the Explorer 1000 v2 deliver 1,800 W continuous; they diverge sharply on weight (10.8–16 kg), solar input (400–600 W), expansion (none to 4,864 Wh), and recharge behavior.
