≈ 1.0 days (24h/day) · Safe motor start buffer (83.3% margin).
mini-fridge running (90 W max) and start-up (600 W max) draw fit the Anker SOLIX C1000's 1,800 W continuous / 2,400 W surge ratings.
1.7 cu ft compact beverage cooler with thermostat set to 40°F (17 W avg)
3.2–4.4 cu ft double-door mini-fridge at standard 35% duty cycle (25 W avg)
4.5+ cu ft mini-fridge with small freezer compartment in warm ambient (35 W avg)
≈ 1.0 days (24h/day)
System standby power: 15W (35.7% of total draw)
Provides 5× BS 1363 (230V), 1× CEE 7/3 (230V) (120V 60Hz).
Pure sine wave inverter output. Safe for all standard household appliances.
Inductive motor/compressor load with 6.7× starting surge (motor inrush) (83.3% worst-case surge margin).
Wall AC fast charge at up to 1300W (43m to 80%, 58m to 100%).
Safe envelope verified: Starting surge (400W) remains comfortably below the 2400W surge trip line, with steady-state operation settling into the safe continuous zone at 60W.
About 25 hours on AC power, with the mini-fridge averaging 25 W (3.2–4.4 cu ft double-door mini-fridge at standard 35% duty cycle (25 W avg)). The Anker SOLIX C1000 then draws about 42 W from its battery, including 15 W for the inverter itself. Best case: about 32 hours (1.7 cu ft compact beverage cooler with thermostat set to 40°F (17 W avg)). Worst case: about 19.8 hours (4.5+ cu ft mini-fridge with small freezer compartment in warm ambient (35 W avg)).
Yes. The mini-fridge's start-up peak of about 400 W (up to 600 W) fits within the Anker SOLIX C1000's 2,400 W surge rating, with 75% headroom even in the worst case.
That simple division gives 42 hours, but the Anker SOLIX C1000's inverter draws about 15 W whenever its AC outlets are on. At this light load that's 36% of everything the battery supplies, and inverter conversion losses take a further share. Anker SOLIX doesn't publish an idle figure and we haven't found an independent measurement, so this uses our 15 W estimate.
On wall power: about 43 minutes to 80% and 58 minutes to full (Anker SOLIX figures). With its maximum 600 W of solar input connected, expect about 480 W in full sun, so a full recharge takes roughly 2.3 hours of full sun, so it can refill in a single day with 4 peak sun hours.
