Updated 2026-10-17 · Yes
About 3.6 hours. The Anker SOLIX F3800 stores 3840Wh, and a drip coffee maker averages about 900W. That’s enough for about 18 typical 12-minute uses.
The numbers
| Battery capacity | 3840Wh (LFP) |
|---|---|
| Usable energy | 3264Wh (85% via AC outlets) |
| Continuous AC output | 6000W |
| Surge rating | 9000W |
| Drip coffee maker running watts | 900W |
| Startup watts | 900W |
| Average draw | 900W |
| Estimated runtime | 3.6 hours |
| Energy per day of typical use | 180Wh |
3840Wh × 0.85 = 3264Wh usable ÷ 900W average = 3.6 hours

Recharging with solar
The Anker SOLIX F3800 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 drip coffee maker uses about 180Wh a day at 0.2 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Anker SOLIX F3800 can run it indefinitely.
Tips
- A pot of drip coffee takes about 10 minutes of heating. The warming plate afterwards keeps drawing power, so switch it off.
- You’ll still have about 5100W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
- The Anker SOLIX F3800 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
