Overview
A 288Wh LiFePO4 power station with 300W continuous output (600W surge), 140W two-way USB-C charging, and 8 output ports, built small and quiet enough to travel light.
Anker markets it as 15 percent smaller than comparable units, aimed at travel over heavy-duty backup. A solar panel is sold separately, and only the newer 100W or 60W Anker panels are compatible; older SOLIX panels like the PS30, PS200, and PS400 will not charge it.
- 288Wh LiFePO4 battery
- 300W output, 600W surge
- 140W two-way USB-C charging
- 8 output ports, 25dB operation
Who it's for
Light campers and day-trippers charging phones, laptops, cameras, or drones. Not sized for higher-draw gear, and a poor fit if you already own an older Anker solar panel.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Recharges to 80% in 50 minutes on AC
- Runs at about 25dB, quiet for camp use
- 8 output ports cover most small electronics
- 15% smaller than comparable units for packing
- Only compatible with newer Anker 100W/60W panels, not PS30/PS200/PS400

Performance notes
The LiFePO4 battery is rated for around 3,000 cycles, roughly a decade of typical use, with smart temperature control built in. It runs at about 25dB from 3.3 feet away, quiet enough to sit near a tent or table. The two-way USB-C port both charges devices and can recharge the station itself from another USB-C source.
