The Anker SOLIX C300X DC is a travel battery with no AC outlets: it delivers power only through USB ports, which rules out plug-in appliances but leaves everything else in play — the laptop, the camera, the phone, a camping lamp.
Two of the USB-C ports work both ways, up to a hundred and forty watts: the same port that powers the laptop also fills the battery, and with a wall charger it's back to nearly full in an hour. From the sun it accepts a portable panel, which is what a week away needs.
It fits in a backpack and gets forgotten until it's needed. It's the choice for anyone traveling light who wants to keep a phone, laptop and accessories charged over several days in a row; anyone counting on plugging in an appliance needs to look elsewhere.

Which documents this page rests on
The rest of the data comes from 2 pages on the manufacturer's site, cited row by row in the table above.
A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.
What it really costs
How we worked it out
- price
- 219.990
- nominal capacity
- 0.288
- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
How we worked it out
- warranty years

- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
- on nominal capacity: the manufacturer does not state the usable figure, so the real cost is higher
- without conversion losses, which the manufacturer does not state: the real cost is higher

These numbers are calculated, not stated: they have no source to cite, they have a formula you can redo. The price used is the manufacturer's list price, which is stable and the same in every country — not a shop's price on the day.
Pros and cons
In favour
- Two USB-C ports up to a hundred and forty watts that work both ways: the same port powers the laptop and fills the battery.
- With a wall charger it's back to nearly full in an hour.
- It accepts a solar panel: for a week away there's no need to look for an outlet.
