Anker 4+

GET YOU SOME OF THIS! Great portable charger with max 250W ultra-fast charger with 27,65mAh capacity. It can fully charge iPad M4 and iPhone 14 with a little bit left over for a partial charge for ear buds. Power status, amount remaining and charging to devices can be displayed to a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth. It has 3 ports, a single USB-A and two USB-C connections. You can charge the A1340 using 1 of the 2 USB-C ports with a cable or using wireless charging using the Anker PowerBase via a magnetic connection between the PowerBase and the PoweBank A1340. It is one of the best available given its tech specifications and charging flexibility. Look for sales of Anker products, I found it on sale right on the Anker website for about $70 off with free shipping. A discount makes the A1340 a cost effective power solution. NOTE: You don’t need to buy the PowerBase because the A1340 is able to be charged using one of the C ports on the A1340.

I have the F3800 and C1000, and like the app for the monitoring. My problem with the app is, it logs me out of my account every week or two. Now I work in IT, I get security. My password is written down, but for some reason Anker thinks it’s incorrect (three times now). So now I have to press “forgot password” every time it logs me out. Driving me NUTS!

The other is a feature request, but the reason this is another star loss is that I tried requesting the feature on the Anker website and gave feedback. But the fully automated bots answering support think every message is a trouble call, not a request or idea. So I am not loving “support” and dread I may need it and not get a person some day. So I will leave my request here.

Request is: LFP batteries don’t love to be stored for a while at 100%, that is a fact. I know it’s not going to break it, but why can’t we set a charge limit of 50%, or 80%? That way I don’t have to watch the charge status closely to get it to 50% for long storage, or 80% for “I don’t need it yet, but I could soon”. My F3800 is for emergency power, so it gets stored most of it’s life. When I go past 80% accidentally, now I have to connect the TV or Fridge to get it down where I want it. Should be easy-ish to add and could extend our investment.

The Anker Solix C800 Plus is a game-changer for outdoor enthusiasts and tech-savvy adventurers alike. Its seamless integration with the Anker app via both Bluetooth and WiFi stands out, offering intuitive control and monitoring of the unit's status. The app is incredibly user-friendly, making it easy to stay informed and prepared, no matter where your adventures take you.

Adding to its appeal, the C800 Plus features two integrated LED flashlights that conveniently charge within the unit. These lights are not just an afterthought; they're powerful and designed to enhance safety and visibility during your outdoor escapades.

Compact, innovative, and smartly designed, the Anker Solix C800 Plus elevates the outdoor experience by combining essential power needs with cutting-edge technology and practicality.
