Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2
Replaces the original C1000 with a genuinely class-leading recharge time (49 minutes to full, a certified world record) and a bump to 2,000W output. Anker dropped expansion-battery support for this generation, so buy the capacity you need up front.

Big enough for a kettle and expandable to 4kWh with the BP2000 Gen 2 battery, while Anker still merchandises it as a portable unit. The single high-current UK AC socket (rather than several) is a deliberate design choice, not a limitation — it's rated for the full 2,400W. Retail prices run well below Anker's own listed price, so shop around.
