The numbers
| Battery capacity | 1056Wh (LFP) |
|---|---|
| Usable energy | 972Wh (92% via 12V/USB DC output) |
| Continuous AC output | 1800W |
| Surge rating | 2400W |
| Starlink Mini running watts | 30W |
| Startup watts | 40W |
| Average draw | 30W |
| Estimated runtime | 32 hours |
| Energy per day of typical use | 720Wh |
1056Wh × 0.92 = 972Wh usable ÷ 30W average = 32.4 hours

Recharging with solar
The Anker SOLIX C1000 accepts up to 600W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 2.3 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.
Solar can keep up. A Starlink Mini uses about 720Wh a day at 24 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Anker SOLIX C1000 can run it indefinitely.
Tips
- Starlink Mini runs on 12–48V DC and averages 25–40W, ideal for running straight from a DC or USB-C port.
- Running it from the Anker SOLIX C1000’s DC port instead of the AC outlet avoids inverter losses: about 74Wh more usable energy.
- The Anker SOLIX C1000 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
