Awe, no port protocol checks (at least for the high power c ports) for PPS and the like? Either way, this thing is a beast though. Also nice to see that it's entirely fine with asymmetric power inputs for charging
I have seen small clips of the Anker SOLIX C300 DC and I determined to ignore those videos 🫣 and wait longer until you put your hand in one of them so thank you very much for the video . Big thank from Kuwait
This is the power bank I've been waiting for. I have the one they put out before this one. This one tackles the problems and downfalls the first had. This thing is gonna be fun.
Havent watched the video yet. But just from a quick look. This is pretty much what i have been asking for. For YEARS. A high capacity DC only power bank with awesome USB C ports.
You got a new subscriber. Never thought I'd meet someone who seems to enjoy batteries half as much as I do. I have a desk full of Anker batteries. Loved the thunder noises in the background. Looking forward to exploring your videos. Thank you! (And thank you for your service!)
@@BatteryAddicted you're welcome and thank you. Comments like yours inspire me to continue doing this. Also, join me on Ankers official discord!! discord.gg/ankerofficial
@@Itsjrob_ man the AC version has less in the way of USB-C. Downsides on both. I'd excuse the larger size of the AC if it had all the same port abilities. And the light is better on the DC
Proper comment now i have watched the video. But man this thing is what the 548 SHOULD OF BEEN ALL ALONG! And from the look of it, it really isnt that much larger than the old 548 as well. Plus the solar input is upto 28v so it will work with all the normal 25/26/27 etc volt portable solar panels. Really looking forward to getting my hands on this when i can here in Australia. This would also work awesome as a 'UPS' for a car fridge. Plug your car fridge into the Anker. And use a Cig lighter to XT60 cable into the solar input of the Anker from your car. That way your fridge has power all the time when your car is off. Plus you also get awesome USB C ports in your car then that are far superior to any normal cig lighter USB C adapter.
@@wwjoshdew yea, this is perfect power station, i already got bluetti AC70P 864Wh but is too heavy to cary everywhere, this anker weight only 2.5kilo so will be very good for many situation
jesus. i just watched the ugreen 300w power bank video yesterday and i was certain it would be my next purchase. Now you suddenly dropped this. 260W+ charging is mental. absolutely unnecessary but rediculously cool. lol
Yeah this is amazing. Usually similar things have only 30,000 mag battery compactly so 90,000 is huge. Also to be able to change this to 80% in an hour with two 140 watt wall changer is so impressive. For all you’re getting $199 is a great price.
Looks like a great power station. I'm interested in the regular C300 (the one with the inverter), as the extra versatility that comes with the inverter would be very helpful for me. Additionally, the "charger" is built in, meaning I don't have to buy two very powerful chargers to charge it in a reasonable amount of time.
I hope the Anker comes to Germany soon and hopefully it won't be too expensive. But I don't think it's much better than the Ugreen. For me the difference in size is just too big to compare them directly. The Anker is 1.7x the weight and 2.5x the size. It's really amazing that the Ugreen has almost the same output power for its size without a fan. I think they're both great and I can't wait to get the Anker.
I need you to do some more reviews on that cigarette lighter action thing with generators because nobody does them and I know you're the guy thanks what would Josh do, I think you do a great job❤
just got 2 of these in DC only version very excited for them to come haha, thanks for the enthusiastic videos as always. edit: 12v socket should get the priority, if its running my fridge i dont want plugging something in to affect it or anything.
I don’t think the Anker and ugreen are comparable due to the form factor. More imputs but bigger footprint and there was plenty of space to put a 80v ac.they missed with not adding an ac on this one imo but still cool and plenty of power as it should be at that size! No doubt the Anker app is superior to all the competitors. Great review and keep em coming!! 🎉
@@simpsonjosh342 they have two options. The C300 AC and C300 DC. I made a video on the DC version. I ordered the AC version this morning, so I’ll do the video when it comes.
Got mine Yesterday..pretty good so far..but mine didnt have the Green pull tab to take the screen protector off...so i thought mine was scratched up..but nope..lol..WHEW
I got mine, but reading the bottom label it says “Battery Rated Capacity: 19.2V, 15,000 mAh, 288 Wh”. Shouldn’t it be 90,000 mAh as per the item description?
I saw another video stating the 280w input from the two 140 USBc ports can only sustain that 280w for about 15mins. Could you test that and see how much does the input drops over time or if any?
Sooooo I want to buy this, but I’m having trouble finding a practical use for it since I don’t travel that much. What is the best way to use this thing for someone who doesn’t leave the house that often and has a power source near him most of the time?
if that's your only concern, then yeah... the ugreen is the better buy. except you only have one single port/way to charge it. This can use both, all four type c, or every single port... and STILL charge via XT60 at 100 watts. Plus the DC output. With the anker, I can connect a 100w PD output DC car charger and use two type c ports to get the full 300 watts.
There is no comparison. Right now, this product is 150 dollars. Same as ugreen. You get way more outputs and inputs, and a bigger battery. Plus it has Bluetooth and wifi. So it can be updated (which they already updated the firmware and made it even better!). It has XT60 100w solar input, DC car outlet, way bigger battery, twice as fast charging speeds (280w of input) and more. There is no comparison. Plus the brand Anker says it all.

No one has mentioned 1 thing i am curious about . The usb-c outlets . Can they through the app adjust the total watt output ? Since you cannot use a phone charging brick which use an Ac outlet it would be nice to control the total watt output through the app . I use an iPhone 14 Pro and have no idea what watts my phone will charge at ? No guessing . Does anyone truly know ? My phone charges at a max speed of 27watts , so will that usb-c port charge at 27watts or will the iPhone lower the input to lets say 20 watts ?

Hi Josh ! ohh this one is really delicious !
Is the 12v socket regulated?
Can you test to see if you can charge with both USB-C & solar all at the same time and what the max charging wattage is at that point?
Apparently he is going to put out a short tonight, answering this question.
I got mine, but reading the bottom label it says “Battery Rated Capacity: 19.2V, 15,000 mAh, 288 Wh”. Shouldn’t it be 90,000 mAh as per the item description?
What cable is that charging at 96 W the one with a little lights on it? It’s cool
Also which single charger do you recommend to fast chargers this 300
I saw another video stating the 280w input from the two 140 USBc ports can only sustain that 280w for about 15mins. Could you test that and see how much does the input drops over time or if any?

How long time these connectors usb c ,A can survive if u use it outside uncovered with rubber, this if has wireless charge on top will be useful
You need to start doing giveaways. Or at least tell Anker to send you one unit and send one to a subscriber.
