The Anker C300X... This thing is honestly pretty awesome. It's hands down our favorite little unit and would be a perfect gift this holiday season, especially considering the price. It's quick to charge, super quiet and quite capable for a ton of smaller scale applications like camping, power on the go and light home back up!

Standard USB C cables that support USB PD 1.0 are limited to 60W max, however, special cables with E-Marker chips are required for 100w. USB PD 3.1 added 140W - 240W profiles which require their own special cables. It is not just the thickness of the cable as implied in the video. The E-Marker chip is required for the higher wattages and communicates with the charger the capabilities of the cable.

Anker has always had super solid customer service as well.

[chanmoua]

Anker products are some of the top stuff i have their power strips and power banks and will soon own one of these dudes

[VistasdelMar]

Got the DC version. Small inconvenience with the dual direction USBC port: unlike the Anker Prime, the software for this unit doesn’t permit forcing one direction charging on that 140 w port. So what happens, if you are charging the unit from an external battery or charging another battery, once the Anker runs down it reverses and takes back the charge it just sent. This basically means that you cannot “trust the device to charge unattended until they upgrade the firmware.

Really wish people would put power station in their titles so when you search it comes up.

I used to use a 250w vacuum cleaner, I used a cheapo unit similar to this (with NMC batteries, so light and small, but at the cost of longevity) which I carried in one hand. If I still had that vacuum I'd love this with the strap, just walk from room to room with it and clean everywhere!

[goneoutside]

I have both versions and they are great. I’m camping with them now.

[GiovanniHale]

I am looking forward to you guys doing River 3 vs Anker C300X

[Deebofreebo]

Just a reminder that Anker subsidiary, Eufy, directly lied to consumers about how they handle secure video from their camera products.

[CodyLeon]

$179 on Prime Day I had to pick one up

[houndofhell]

Anker does sell 100 w rated type c cables. Have 2 they work well.

[jaysbrowseraccount]

We appreciate u prioritizing the audio production of your content

[MikeyG]

What would be a good alternative to Anker's brand of solar panel for this?

[mojavedesertsonorandesert]

My question, will it work for my electric tea kettle? That is all I need when out camping/exploring..

[philhowells]

Great reviews thanks.
I'd done my own research and decided on this model, but I just wanted to see it in action, hence why I looked for videos. And your review just reinforced my decision to buy the Anker Solix C300 AC.
Thank you.

[Grateful_Grannie]

Thank you! Only video I’ve found to explain the differences between the C300 and the C300X. I kind of thought there was a “Plus” version too, but may be wrong. Still searching out the mystery of Anker products. Ridiculous they don’t have a one page comparison on web-site. Techies!

[john-jee]

charging it via usb c is a win.
this alone just beat the river series and bluetti eb3a

[donbrloks]

USBC at 60 watts gets pretty warm. At 100+ I wouldn’t leave it unattended.

[kylefawks]

Anker has always been solid in the battery world.
