Pros and cons

Lightest 2 kWh StationModel SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 (A1783)

Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station

The 2 kWh station to pick if you will actually move it: lighter than every rival here, with an RV outlet built in. Heavy solar users should look at the BLUETTI AC200L or Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus.

Pros

  • 41.7 lb: the lightest 2 kWh station we cover, by about 8 lb
  • TT-30R outlet plugs straight into an RV's 30 A inlet
  • Two 140 W USB-C ports
  • Expands to about 4 kWh with one add-on battery

Cons

  • 800 W of solar input is the lowest in the 2 kWh group
  • Expansion stops at one extra battery, where Jackery's Explorer 2000 Plus reaches 12 kWh
  • Anker's regional pages disagree on whether 4,000 cycles is to 80% or 70% capacity
Model DELTA 2 Max

EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max Portable Power Station

A strong all-rounder at 2 kWh: plenty of outlets, fast charging and real room to grow. The weight is the price you pay.

Pros

  • Six AC outlets and 2,400 W of continuous output
  • Accepts up to 1,000 W of solar, which EcoFlow says can refill it in as little as 2.3 hours
  • Expands to 6,144 Wh with two extra batteries
  • LiFePO4 cells rated for 3,000+ cycles, with a 5-year warranty

Cons

  • At 50 lb it is a two-hand lift, not something to carry far
  • Expansion works only with EcoFlow's own DELTA 2 Max Smart Extra Batteries
  • We could not find a backup switchover time in EcoFlow's published specifications

Choose the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 if

  • You want 2 kWh that one person can lift.
  • You own an RV with a 30 A inlet.
  • You want a published UPS switchover for computers.

Choose the EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max if

  • You plan a larger solar array or more than 4 kWh of storage.
  • You need a higher surge rating: 4,800 W.

What we could not confirm

Anker's regional pages disagree on whether the C2000 Gen 2's 4,000 cycles are rated to 80% or 70% capacity.
