Brief conclusions of the comparison portable power stations

Charging stations ANKER SOLIX C800X and BLUETTI AC70 have similar characteristics but differ in power and functionality. ANKER SOLIX C800X has a nominal power of 1200 W and a peak of 1600 W, while BLUETTI AC70 has 1000 W and 2000 W respectively. Users note that ANKER offers more outputs, including 3 outlets at 230 V and 5 at 100-120 V, whereas BLUETTI has only 2 outlets for each voltage. Both devices have LiFePO4 batteries with 3000 charge cycles, but the charging time for BLUETTI is faster (45 minutes compared to 58 for ANKER). Also, BLUETTI has a longer warranty — 5 years compared to 2 years for ANKER. Overall, ANKER SOLIX C800X is suitable for more powerful loads, while BLUETTI AC70 stands out for its fast charging and reliability.

Glossary

Rated power

Power that a device can consistently produce for an indefinitely long time without any unpleasant consequences. For normal operation of the charging station, the rated power must be at least 15 - 20% higher than the total power of all devices simultaneously connected to it.

Peak power

Some electrical appliances (in particular, units with electric motors - refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.) consume significantly more energy at startup than after reaching the operating mode. For such a load, the peak power of the charging station must be taken into account - its indicator must be higher than the starting power of the load.

Sockets (230 V)

Total number of outlets with output voltage. This is, in fact, the number of devices that can be simultaneously connected to the charging station without the use of splitters, extension cords and carriers. Accordingly, weaker charging stations have one or two sockets in their submission. Powerful charging stations already have three or more sockets “on board”.

Connecting an additional battery

Ability to connect an external battery to the charging station to increase the overall energy consumption and, as a result, extend the battery life. This connection is fast and convenient. On the other hand, the battery takes up extra space on the outside, making the whole structure more cumbersome.

Charging time (socket) ≈

Time to charge the portable power station from a fully discharged state to 100% charge when using the power adapter from a household outlet. This refers to the original battery and standard charger.

Charging time (solar panel) ≈

Time spent on a full charge when using the original panel in bright sunlight. In cloudy weather, the charging time of the device from the solar panel can be strikingly different downwards.

Charging time (cigarette lighter) ≈

The time required to fully (from zero to 100%) charge the battery, provided that power is supplied to the charging station from the car's cigarette lighter socket (12 V).

Charging power (socket)

The power at which, in normal mode, the portable power station is charged from a household outlet when using the original power supply.

Charging power (solar panel)

The power in watts provided when charging a device from a solar panel.

The higher the charging power, all other things being equal, the less time it will take to replenish the energy reserves in the cells of the device's own battery. This section provides the maximum power value that the charging station can accept. Accordingly, this indicator is supposed to be taken into account when choosing compatible solar panels.
