Anker SOLIX S2000 Power Station & Kits

I have been using the Anchor S2000 every day since it arrived. Testing what I can plug into it at the same time. For me, I don’t have to carry a generator and my plan is to use it at my home in Baja where we live on solar. It is small and compact and being able to plug into the back of the unit is a plus.

Outstanding performance and peace of mind when it counts I bought the Anker SOLIX S2000 to keep my essentials running, and it has absolutely exceeded my expectations. To test its limits, I plugged my full-sized refrigerator into it, and it easily powered the fridge for a full 24 hours—while also handling a few hours of laptop charging on the side. The battery capacity is incredibly impressive and handles heavy appliances without breaking a sweat. Where this unit really shines is its smart functionality. During a recent Nor'easter, the "Storm Guard" feature automatically kicked in to ensure the power station was fully charged and ready to go. We were lucky and didn't actually lose power this time, but having that automated preparation gave me total peace of mind knowing we were covered. Beyond its performance, it is surprisingly well-designed. Unlike clunky gas generators or ugly, industrial-looking battery blocks, it blends in beautifully with my home aesthetics. Best of all, it operates incredibly quietly, making it easy to forget it’s even sitting in the room. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable, smart, and quiet home backup power solution.

Excellent device and exceeded my expectations. Anker has always been a step ahead and quite innovative, but the Solix series has been spectacular. This is my sixth Solix power station and looking forward to the E10.

Must have nowadays with taxed power grids and what not. Saved me already a few times in hot weather.

Excellent product. Use as a backup for upright freezer in my garage. Refrigerator/Freezers turn on and off to maintain temperature. What’s great about this is Anker S2000 is when no power is being used by freezer this loses very little power. Means more backup power when you need it.

Alright folks, I don't usually write long reviews but I am genuinely fired up about this one, so bear with me. I had my eye on this thing before it even launched. Been following the S2000 for a while now. Then, wouldn't you know it, we got hit with a nasty outage a few weeks back. Freezer full of steaks, sump pump dead, the whole nine yards. That was the final push I needed. The minute this thing dropped, I had it in my cart. Now, I'll admit I had some reservations. 1500 watts? I'm a bigger-is-better kind of guy when it comes to backup power. But after living through that outage and thinking hard about what I actually needed to keep running, 1500W is plenty for real-world use. The fridge runtime claim is what really got my attention, and let me tell you – it delivers. I got mine in and the first thing I did was plug in my full-size refrigerator and start the clock. That was yesterday morning. It's been nearly 30 hours now and I'm still sitting at 20% battery. TWENTY PERCENT. I genuinely had to double-check that thing wasn't still plugged into the wall. I was not expecting that at all. Color me impressed, Anker. Here's what else gets me: this thing is SMALL. Like, embarrassingly small for what it does. I've got it sitting right next to my big fridge and it looks like a toy. But it's packing 2kWh of capacity in that little footprint. How?! My wife even said it looks nice – and that's a first for anything I've put in the kitchen. It doesn't look like shop equipment. It actually looks like it belongs in the house. I've been going back and forth on buying a UPS for my home office setup, but honestly? With the 10ms switchover and 2kWh on tap, I don't think I need it anymore. This covers everything I was planning to use a UPS for, and then some. I'm already planning to grab a few more units – one for each room. And the TOU and Storm modes? That's just smart. Use it to shave off the electric bill on normal days, and it's battle-ready the moment a storm rolls through. Anker figured out what people actually need. Compact size, killer runtime, looks good in the house – somebody over there clearly sweated the details on this one. You don't end up with a product this dialed-in by accident. Well done.

I bought this for my: Xfinity Coax modem (XB10), and my unify gateway and Access point. So I can have internet even during an outage. (Since Xfinity still delivers internet through coax if my neighborhood has lost power). I also have the solar panel attached to it to give it a little extra juice if that ever happens.

I've only had this unit for a little less than a week and it has already saved me over $100 in repair costs and downtime when it saved my work PC from a massive power surge that hit the house, and my PC and modem stayed online and allowed me to keep working from home uninterrupted. Definitely a worthwhile investment so far. Aside from the stellar aesthetic, this thing is surprisingly small for the power capacity. The app is quick and intuitive and allows me to quickly configure modes, schedule AC ports on or off to save power when not needed, and the only thing it's lacking in my opinion is a dark mode but hopefully that will come in a future update. Very impressed with the build quality and features so far. Looking forward to having this unit keep my home office up and running through storms and various power outages. It's only $649 on ankersolix right now so glad I got a lower price while it's on sale!

I live in an area that loses power a few times a year. Last year I bought the Solix C1000 and hooked it up to my fridge using UPS mode. One day, the electric company was performing maintenance and knocked the out the power to my neighborhood for 6 hours while I was at work. I was able to check the battery level after power was restored (it's connected to my wifi). The battery level was around 12%. That's a little too close for my liking. Enter the Solix S2000. They advertise up to 36 hours of backup for a fridge. Sold! I did the math and in a real world scenario, I should be getting at least 28 hours of backup. That's much longer than most of the power outages I've had. I'm using it in UPS mode and it will stay there until it reaches it's end of life...or until Anker comes out with something better lol. The S2000 is a little bigger than the C1000, but smaller than the competition for a similar product. I like being able to connect my Anker products to wifi so I can monitor while I'm at work or on vacation. It gives me more peace of mind over my old method where you set a penny on a chunk of ice and leave it in the freezer. The theory is that if you come home and the penny is below the ice, it means it melted and you should probably toss your food. That method only costs a penny, but it doesn't prevent your fridge from losing power. This does. I've been following Anker since they first came out. They've come a long ways and they keep getting better. I have no doubt that I'll be able to get 10 years from my S2000. Solid investment!

Works great. Just in time for mid west power outages and storms. I have got something waiting for them. Bring it on!

Love the PPS! It save me during peak electrical costs and let's me keep using my freezers so the food doesn't spoil!

Works very well, only thing I was un-happy with was there was no unit lighting feature to use in case of an outage on the unit like the other Anker portable units have. Like using it for the refrigerator in the kitchen a night light would have been nice to have on the s2000 at night,if you had no other lighting source

The unit itself works flawlessly. I had zero issues setting it up or using it. However,…. The reason I bought it was to connect to a solar panel. While I’m pleased at how effortless that was, I also use 120V AC to power the unit, and would like the ability to separate out total daily charging via each method. I have a daily “total charge”, and each method has its own graph. But I can’t distinguish them. I don’t know if that’s a firmware, software, or app update. But that would be my #1 item for the next one. If I’ve missed something, please enlighten me. But I cannot find this data. Thanks. Great product.

Lots of power in a little package. It’s smaller than I had expected but sometimes size doesn’t matter.

I had an Anker Solix C1000 that I primarily used for cookouts with an induction cooktop, and as you can imagine, 1 kWh is not a lot of energy for an appliance that can pull up to 1800 Watts. When the Solix S2000 came out, I knew I had to pick it up as an upgrade - it can power my Duxtop induction cooktop at full power, lasts twice as long, and is only a bit bigger in some dimensions. A minor complaint is the 400W solar input, but there are trade-offs in making such a small power stations, and I think Anker knocked it out of the park! My only real issue is the lack of handles - I really wish it had actual handles rather than just little inset handles, because those are more useful both for carrying, but also for tying down the power bank.

I've got an Anker SOLIX F3000, an Anker SOLIX C200 DC, two pop cans, a paint can, and a tube of caulk for scale (unfortunately, no bananas remained uneaten for scale purposes). Right now, it's sitting next to the base of my fridge doing the runtime test, and I'm excited to share those results soon! The S2000 would fit nicely under my computer desk if I was using it as a UPS, but I think based on how this fridge backup runtime test is going, it might live sitting at the base of the fridge to help peak-shave my electricity costs and keep me ready in case of an outage.
