Anker SOLIX F1200 (757): Runtime & Specs

By Hicham M. · Specs from Anker SOLIX's published documents, as of September 2026 · How we calculate

The Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) is a 1,229 Wh LiFePO4 power station with 1,800 W of continuous AC output. It runs a typical full-size fridge for about 18 hours. It has been replaced or discontinued, but many are still in use.

Our notes

The F1200, sold as the PowerHouse 757, comes in two versions, and a used one could be either. Early 2022 units had a 1,500 W inverter, solar input limited to 11 to 30 V and a weight of 43.9 lb. Anker's updated manual lists 1,800 W, 11 to 60 V and 42.1 lb. Anker's product page still shows 30 V for the solar port, so read the label on the unit before wiring panels in series.

With 1,229 Wh it runs a full-size fridge for about 18 hours and a CPAP for about 35. It has six AC outlets and a 20 ms UPS switchover. It's heavy for its size, about 29 Wh per pound, it can't be expanded, and there's no published surge rating.

Compared with Anker's current C1000 Gen 2 (1,024 Wh, 2,000 W, 24.9 lb), the F1200 has a bit more battery but weighs 17 lb more. It mostly makes sense at a good used price.

Simulated runtimes (not measured)

Nobody tested this unit for this page. These figures come from a computer simulation of the F1200 (757), and they are estimates. The plain runtime table below divides energy by average draw at 85% efficiency. The simulation also charges the battery for the power the inverter burns just by being switched on, which is why small loads come out shorter. Where we have measured a unit, the measurement is shown separately and labeled as measured.

Nonstop runtime from full to battery cutoff. Likely range = middle 80% of 200 simulated runs with the uncertain inputs varied. The inverter idle draw is assumed, not published: we assumed about 19 W for this model, varied from 11 to 28 W. If the real figure is lower, real runtimes land closer to the spec-sheet column.

How this was simulated
  • The battery is stepped down every 2 minutes until it reaches cutoff, for 200 runs per device. Results are seeded, so the page shows the same numbers on every build.
  • Battery draw = load + inverter idle draw + 4–8% of the load + a loss that rises with load squared (4% at full output).
  • Usable capacity = 92–98% of rated Wh, for protection cutoff and aging.
  • At 0 °C, 80–90% of that capacity is assumed available.
  • Fridges cycle on and off every 30–50 minutes at the share of the time set by their average draw. The inverter idle draw continues while the compressor is off.
  • Devices that exceed this model's output or surge rating are left out. Loads are US 120 V devices.

Surge? = this model has no published surge rating, so starting motors and compressors may or may not work. Fridges, freezers, pumps and AC units cycle on and off, so we use their average draw. Want a mix of devices on a schedule? Use the runtime calculator.

Questions

How long will the Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) run a refrigerator?
About 18 hours for a typical ENERGY STAR full-size fridge averaging 58 W, assuming 85% inverter efficiency. Older or larger fridges use more. Try your own numbers.
Can the Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) run a microwave?
Yes. A typical 1,000 W microwave pulls about 1,500 W from the outlet, within its 1,800 W continuous output. A full battery gives about 42 min of cooking.
How many amp-hours is the Anker SOLIX F1200 (757)?
The Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) works out to about 102 Ah at 12 V, or 96 Ah at 12.8 V, the nominal voltage of a 12 V LiFePO4 battery. Both are our conversion of Anker SOLIX's 1,229 Wh rating: amp-hours = watt-hours ÷ volts. The battery inside may run at a different voltage, so an amp-hour figure in a manual or on a product listing can look very different for the same energy. For scale, a 12 V 100 Ah LiFePO4 battery holds 1,280 Wh, so this model holds about as much as one. How we convert amp-hours.
How long does the Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) take to charge?
Anker SOLIX's published charging claim: “0–80% in 1 hr (HyperFlash)”. Max AC charging power is 1,000 W. With solar, it accepts up to 600 W. With 600 W of panels that's roughly 2.7 hours of good sun from empty.
Is the Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) expandable?
No. Its capacity is fixed at 1,229 Wh.
Does the Anker SOLIX F1200 (757) work as a UPS?
Anker SOLIX lists a 20 ms switchover time, so it can keep devices like routers and computers running when the power drops. Check that your specific device tolerates the switch before relying on it for anything critical.
