Introducing the latest in portable power solutions, the Anker Solix C200 DC Power Bank Station has officially launched in both the US and the UK. Earlier this year, eager tech enthusiasts got a sneak peek of this device alongside the Solix C200X due to a leak on Reddit, which offered a glimpse into its features and capabilities.
The C200 DC stands out as a more compact and budget-friendly version of the C300 DC, which debuted in August. Equipped with a robust 60,000mAh (192Wh) LiFePO4 battery, the C200 DC delivers a substantial 200W maximum charging output. In comparison, the C300 DC boasts a heftier 90,000mAh (288Wh) battery with a higher cumulative output capability of 300W.
When it comes to connectivity, the C200 DC doesn’t disappoint, offering five charging outputs: a 140W USB-C, a 100W USB-C, a 15W USB-C, and two 12W USB-A ports. While its bigger sibling, the C300 DC, includes all these features plus an additional 140W USB-C port and a 120W car socket, catering to those with larger power needs.
Recharging these robust power banks is just as versatile. They can be powered back up with a 100W solar panel input or a 140W PD 3.1 USB-C input, with the latter capable of achieving an 80% charge in just about 80 minutes. Balancing functionality with practicality, the C200 DC is more portable without the built-in light of its counterpart, coming in at a size of 3.9 x 4.3 x 7.3 inches and weighing a mere 4.2 lbs. For comparison, the C300 DC measures slightly larger at 4.9 x 4.7 x 7.9 inches, with a weight of 6.2 lbs.
Currently, the Anker Solix C200 DC Power Bank Station is available for purchase with significant savings. In the US, you can snag it for just $109.99, down from its regular price of $169.99, courtesy of a $60 in-page coupon on Amazon. Similarly, in the UK, an equivalent £60 voucher reduces its price from £169.99 to an attractive £109.99. The C300 DC is priced at $199.99 in the US and £199.99 in the UK.
There’s no word yet on its availability in the EU or further details about the launch and pricing of the Solix C200X. For those always on the go or needing a reliable power backup solution, the Anker Solix C200 DC offers an optimal blend of power and portability.
