Thanks to Black Friday, it’s been an amazing time for deals. We’re coming across record lows more commonly during this period with the offers set to roll through the weekend right up to Cyber Monday and hopefully beyond too. One of which is this ace Anker Solix C1000 portable power station that is capable of 1,800 watts. Usually found for just under $1,000, it’s today available for $429. Now that’s a big price drop — so much so that this is the lowest we have seen to date.
The Anker Solix C1000 has appeared on our list of the best portable power stations in the past, and it tested well in our lab. It offers a 1,056-Wh capacity and can put out up to 2,400 watts of power. It has 11 ports, including AC, USB-A, USB-C and a car socket, so you have plenty of ways to power your gear.

In addition to this, recharging the battery itself is fast. The battery goes from flat to full in less than an hour via wall charging, or you can top it up using the sun’s rays with up to 600 watts of solar input supported.
Why this deal matters
A record low of $429 is not something to take lightly. The previous lowest was $479 during Prime Day, so a further $50 deduction has been applied. That’s a massive $570 in savings. Best of all, this deal is available to everyone, so you don’t need to be a Prime member to take advantage. If you’re someone who finds yourself in need of power when on the move, this could be the deal you’ve been waiting for. It’s also a great option for those who live in a part of the world where electricity might not be all that reliable.
If this isn’t exactly what you were looking for, we’ve rounded up many more deals on generators and power stations to help you find the right option at the best price.
