Anker SOLIX ladder: C2000, F3000, F3800, F3800 Plus

F3800 is still the 240 V first buy. The rest of the ladder is for people who only need fridge power — or who will actually use generator bypass and more solar. Anker’s older F2000 store URL now points at C2000 Gen 2; that is the current 2 kWh box.

Sources: ankersolix.com C2000 Gen 2, F3000, F3800, and F3800 Plus pages, August 18, 2026. F3000 checkout was script-loaded; we do not invent a live number. 2025 sale writeups put F3000 near $1,649 / $2,599 list — treat that as history.

C2000 Gen 2 is the honest fridge + CPAP machine. 2 kWh, 2.4 kW, 41.7 lb, extra BP2000 Gen 2. Skip it if a well pump is the job.

F3000 is more energy and 3.6 kW on 120 V, with a wheeled case. Do not buy one F3000 for 240 V motors.

F3800 is still the watts-per-dollar 240 V portable. Add a BP3800 before you shop another brand.

F3800 Plus is the same energy and watts with 3,200 W solar, 240 V generator bypass, and documented inlet / transfer / Home Power Panel hooks. That is what the extra ~$500 is for.
