Anker plug-in home battery

What is an Anker SOLIX home battery?

The Anker SOLIX home battery is an advanced energy storage solution that uses solar energy efficiently. The system captures excess solar energy you generate during the day and delivers it when the sun is not shining or during peak tariffs. This makes the home battery ideal for households with dynamic energy rates.

The SOLIX Solarbank 2 E1600 offers a storage capacity of 1600 Wh and a rated output of 2400 W. It features built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing you to monitor the system in real time. This gives you insight into energy consumption, stored energy and when your battery is providing power to your home.

Difference between the E1600 Pro and the E1600 Plus AC

The Anker SOLIX Solarbank 2 E1600 is available in two versions: the E1600 Pro and the E1600 Plus AC. Which version suits you best depends on your situation:

Do you already have solar panels with micro-inverters (such as Enphase, Hoymiles or Deye)?

Then choose the E1600 Plus AC. You easily connect it via the wall outlet. The AC version offers grid charging, emergency power and expansion via MPPT ports for additional solar panels.

Are you starting from scratch and want a complete system without a separate inverter?

Then go for the E1600 Pro. This variant works completely off-grid, with built-in MPPT controller, battery and inverter. Solar panels connect directly to the system (max. 2400 W DC).

Why choose an Anker home battery?

The Anker SOLIX offers a combination of powerful technology, practicality and long-lasting performance. Below you can see why more and more households are choosing this modular home battery:

Plug-in and ready to use
You don’t need to hire a licensed installer. Within minutes, the battery is operational.

Modular system
SOLIX batteries are designed with a modular structure. You start small and expand as your energy needs grow.

Real-time monitoring
Through the app, you track the performance of your system. You see how much power you’re storing, when your battery is active and how much you’re saving.

Robust design
Anker home battery batteries are resistant to a variety of weather conditions and suitable for long-term use. This ensures long life and optimal performance.

Suitable for different applications
Whether you are looking for a backup during power outages, an efficient energy storage solution or complete self-sufficiency, the SOLIX is flexible in its application.

Who is an Anker plug-in home battery suitable for?

The Anker SOLIX home battery is a logical choice as a plug-in home battery, but the type of user they are suitable for varies.

Anker SOLIX Solarbank 2 AC

For those who already have solar panels with a micro-inverter

The AC version is an ideal extension to existing solar systems without having to make any changes to your meter box. You connect it through the wall socket.

• People with balcony or garden systems who want to store their excess power for later use
• Users who also want to recharge via the grid, such as in winter or during cloudy weather
• People with dynamic energy tariffs who want smart charging and expensive feed-in
• Households that do not want to make any adjustments to their installation and are looking for a simple plug-and-play solution

Not suitable as:

• You don’t have a solar panel or inverter yet
• You want to go completely off-grid (the AC version is grid dependent)

• Anyone who wants to set up a completely self-contained and off-grid system
• Those who want to directly connect solar panels (DC) to the battery
• Users who want to be provided with emergency power in case of failure (via the built-in 1200 W AC output)
• People who want to later expand their system to 9.6 kWh battery capacity

Not suitable as:

• You already have a working microinverter system (then the AC version is more efficient)

Smartly expand with a modular battery: BP1600 or BP2700

Want to expand your Anker SOLIX home battery? Then the BP1600 and BP2700 are both powerful expansion options. These additional batteries easily connect to the E1600 Solarbank and instantly increase your storage capacity, without modifications or complicated installation.

Suitable for:

• Households looking to expand their storage capacity after purchasing a Solarbank
• Families or users with greater energy needs
• People who want to make smart use of dynamic power tariffs
