Recharging with solar
The Anker SOLIX C800 Plus accepts up to 300W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 1.1 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.
Solar can keep up. A rice cooker uses about 350Wh a day at 0.5 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Anker SOLIX C800 Plus can run it indefinitely.
Tips
- A 6-cup rice cooker draws full power for about 25 minutes, then drops to a low keep-warm mode.
- You’ll still have about 500W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
- The Anker SOLIX C800 Plus uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
