Our notes

The F3000 is a 3,072 Wh, 91.5 lb home unit with a 3,600 W inverter and a 7,200 W surge. Its outlets are 120 V, four of them 20 A, plus a TT-30R. Getting 240 V for a well pump or a dryer circuit takes two F3000s and Anker's Double Voltage Hub.

Its solar input is unusually flexible: 2,400 W in total, split between a high-voltage input (1,600 W, 11 to 165 V) and a low-voltage one (800 W, 11 to 60 V). That lets you run a long series string of panels on one input and a smaller array on the other.

A fridge, a chest freezer and a Wi-Fi router together run for about 26 hours on the base unit. With three BP3000 batteries (12,288 Wh) that stretches past four days. The switchover is listed at 20 ms.

Simulated runtimes (not measured)

Nobody tested this unit for this page. These figures come from a computer simulation of the F3000, 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.

Simulated runtimes for the Anker SOLIX F3000
Device	Spec-sheet math	Simulated, typical	Likely range	Simulated at 0 °C
Wi-Fi router + modem	7.3 days	2.6 days	2.1 days to 3.4 days	2.2 days
CPAP (no humidifier)	3.6 days	46 hours	40 hours to 2.3 days	39 hours
Starlink Standard	29 hours	23 hours	21 hours to 25 hours	20 hours
Refrigerator (full-size, ENERGY STAR)	45 hours	32 hours	28 hours to 36 hours	27 hours

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 30 W for this model, varied from 18 to 44 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.

Questions

How long will the Anker SOLIX F3000 run a refrigerator?

About 45 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 F3000 run a microwave?

Yes. A typical 1,000 W microwave pulls about 1,500 W from the outlet, within its 3,600 W continuous output. A full battery gives about 1.7 hours of cooking.

How many amp-hours is the Anker SOLIX F3000?

The Anker SOLIX F3000 works out to about 256 Ah at 12 V, or 240 Ah at 12.8 V, the nominal voltage of a 12 V LiFePO4 battery. Both are our conversion of Anker SOLIX's 3,072 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 2.4 of them. How we convert amp-hours.

How long does the Anker SOLIX F3000 take to charge?

Anker SOLIX's published charging claim: “'1.3 hours of generator charging' gives a full day of backup (3,600W input)”. Max AC charging power is 3,600 W. With solar, it accepts up to 2,400 W (1,600 W per input). With 2,400 W of panels that's roughly 1.7 hours of good sun from empty.

Is the Anker SOLIX F3000 expandable?

Yes, up to 12,288 Wh with Anker SOLIX's extra batteries.

Does the Anker SOLIX F3000 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.
