Powerful Charging on the Go
This beefy portable power station can hold a max capacity of 90,000mAh. That’s more than triple what the predecessor model was able to hold. Even though the C300 is about 30% smaller than the C200, it’s still packs 60,000mAh more and can even hit a max output speed of 300W.
The Anker Solix C300 is equipped with two 140W two-way USB-C ports that can fast charge any device you have that works over USB-C. You’ll be able to bring back up a laptop or your phone in no time. The power station has two more ports that supports speeds of 100W and 15W each. Then there are two USB-A ports as well as a car charging port that can handle 120W. So all together, this power station can be used to charge up to seven different devices at once.
As for charging the Anker Solix C300 itself, that also works fast. From nothing, you’ll be able to bring the power station back up to about 80% in under two hours if you are recharging over either of those 140W USB-C ports. For even quicker charging, you can plug in via both ports for dual charging. That’ll get you to that 80% figure in just one hour, about half as long.
If a wall outlet is not available to you, like if you’ve taken the power station on an extended camping trip, you do have other options for charging. You can plug in via the car port to an open socket in your vehicle. Additionally, Anker sells the Solix C300 with an option 100W solar panel. When using this, you can just lay out the panel in the sun and get it back up to 80% in roughly two and a half hours.
Beyond just charging, the Anker power station also has a build in lantern light which can be useful for late at night while camping or for use at home during a power outage.
