Recharging with solar

The Anker SOLIX F3000 accepts up to 2400W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 9 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.

Solar can keep up. A box fan uses about 600Wh a day at 8 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Anker SOLIX F3000 can run it indefinitely.

Tips

  • A 20-inch box fan draws 50–100W depending on speed.
  • You’ll still have about 3525W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
  • The Anker SOLIX F3000 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
