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 sump pump (1/3 HP) uses about 4.8 kWh a day at 24 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Anker SOLIX F3000 can run it indefinitely.

Tips

  • Sump pumps run in short bursts; how often depends on how much water is coming in. The motor start is the main hurdle.
  • You’ll still have about 2800W 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.
