SAVE $700: The Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 is on sale at Amazon for $799, down from the normal price of $1,499. That's a 47% discount on the new model.

Portable power stations come with year-round benefits. They're practically essential to take camping to keep phones charged and they're a lifeline when the power goes out at home. For those who have not yet made the investment in portable power, Anker has a new model that just launched today. Not only is packed with power, it's on a steep intro discount.

As of its launch on Oct. 28, the Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 is on sale for $799 at Amazon, marked down from the list price of $1,499. That's a 47% discount on the new model that saves shoppers $700.

In testing, I've consistently found that Anker makes some top-tier portable power stations. Not only do they offer user-friendly features, the brand is always reaching for offering a smaller portable power station that charges quicker. That's exactly what they've come up with for the C2000 Gen 2.

In overall dimensions, the C2000 Gen 2 with its 2,048Wh LiFePO4 battery is hardly any larger in overall size compared to the Solix C1000 which offers 1,056Wh. When it comes to weight, however, the C2000 Gen 2 is a definitely chunkier. You're looking at 41 pounds compared to the C1000's weight of about 28 pounds. But that's to be expected since batteries are heavy.

The C2000 Gen 2 is also an ideal model if you're looking for portable power that can handle a 30amp plug. That could come in handy for those who are planning on winter RV or van adventures. The C2000 Gen 2 can handle sustained power output of 2,400W with a peak clocked in at 4,000W.

In terms of what 2,048Wh looks like IRL, Anker says this will keep your WiFi router online for 105 hours or keep the refrigerator cooling for 32 hours. Both of those are ideal in a power outage. The portable power station has five standard AC plugs, one 30amp, three USB-C ports (maximum 140W), and one USB-A.

Snag this brand new model while it's launching at a discount before the price shoots back to normal MSRP. You'll be saving $700 on the Solix C2000 Gen 2 right off the bat while ensuring the refrigerator can stay on during the next power outage.
