After showcasing its latest home power backup products at CES in January, Anker has now officially launched the Solix E10. Touted as the “world’s first smart hybrid whole-home backup system,” the Solix E10 combines a smart fuel generator, battery storage, and solar input with auto and manual switch options to deliver near-infinite backup capability.
Anker says a single Solix E10 unit can provide up to 37.2kW power, enough to start high-power appliances like a 5-ton air conditioner. It can be paired with up to three other units to hit 90kWh of storage, designed to offer higher reserves of power when needed – for instance, during an outage.
The Power Dock features a 20ms automatic switch that transitions to backup power without damaging connected appliances. Alternatively, buyers can pair the Solix E10 with a Smart Inlet Box for a more cost-effective setup, though this option requires manual switchover during outages.
The Solix E10 supports 9kW of solar input per unit (boosting that to 27kW when combining three units). Anker says it’s compatible with all solar panels, including rigid, portable, existing AC-coupled rooftop solar systems, and third-party panels. Buyers can also charge the battery directly with the smart generator via a DC connection, which can extend backup duration by up to five times compared to traditional AC generators.
Anker has also confirmed the Solix E10 carries a NEMA 4 waterproof rating and is designed for outdoor installation. The system operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -4°F to 131°F, making it suitable for use during extreme winter storms and summer heat.
The Smart Generator now officially supports backward compatibility with existing Anker SOLIX portable power stations, including the F3800, F3800 Plus, and F3000, allowing current Anker users to integrate the generator into their existing setups.
