Whether it's making your morning coffee, catching up on emails or settling down for an evening in front of the TV, most of us rely on electricity for countless little parts of our daily routines. So when the power suddenly goes out, it's not always easy to know what to do next.
Having a way to keep a few essentials running can make a difference, from keeping your phone charged so you can stay in touch to maintaining your Wi-Fi connection. That's where a portable power station, such as the Anker SOLIX S2000, could come in handy.
A little extra peace of mind
Designed to provide power when you need it, the S2000 has a 2kWh capacity and seven outlets for connecting selected devices. This means it works as an uninterrupted power supply for essentials such as phones, laptops and lighting as well as even some larger appliances like coffee makers, microwaves and even fridges. Its small build means you can even easily use it on your desk to help keep working-from-home or studying essentials running.
It's designed to make that stored energy last, too. Anker's OptiSave™ efficiency approach helps reduce unnecessary power consumption at low loads, with power use rated at just 10 W when idle with AC enabled, or 2 W when outputs are switched off. At a 100 W load, the manufacturer reports over 86% efficiency.
The result is a design focused not just on how much energy you can store, but on making better use of it. Anker quotes up to 24 hours of essential home backup, which was based on the estimated runtime when powering a TV (105W), Wi-Fi router (14W), and speaker (10W).
Power for plans at home and away
Beyond power cuts, the S2000 can come in handy on road trips and other off-grid adventures, too. Compact enough to store away between uses, it offers six charging methods, quiet operation and no indoor emissions when used as directed.
It's designed to keep selected essentials powered, rather than run an entire home, so it's worth thinking about which devices you'd prioritise. Its 1,500W rated AC output makes it a handy option for powering everyday essentials, from lighting and laptops to keeping connected.
Priced at £849 and backed by a five-year warranty, the Anker SOLIX S2000 offers a flexible way to think about everyday preparedness, wherever you need power.
