Understanding Solar Compatibility with the SOLIX C300

MPPT Range & Why It Matters

The SOLIX C300 accepts solar input between 11V and 28V (MPPT range). Panels with Vmp below 11V won't start charging — the MPPT controller can't lock on. Panels with Vmp above 28V may damage the input circuit.

Cold Weather Voltage Safety

We apply a 1.2x safety margin to each panel's open-circuit voltage (Voc) to account for cold temperatures, when solar cells produce higher voltage. The SOLIX C300's maximum input voltage is 28V. Any panel whose Voc x 1.2 exceeds 28V is flagged as a voltage danger. 6 of 20 panels pass this safety check.

Cables & Adapters for the SOLIX C300

The SOLIX C300 uses a XT60 solar input connector. XT60 is a standard connector shared across many brands. Most third-party panels with XT60 connect directly. 6 of 20 panels require an adapter with this unit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use any solar panel with the Anker SOLIX C300?

No. The SOLIX C300 requires panels with Vmp between 11V and 28V, and cold-weather Voc (Voc x 1.2) under 28V. Of the 20 panels we tested, 2 are fully compatible, 4 work with limitations, and 14 are incompatible.

How long does it take to charge the SOLIX C300 with solar?

With the fastest compatible panel (Goal Zero Boulder 100 Briefcase Solar Panel, 100W delivered), the SOLIX C300 (288Wh) charges in approximately 4.1 hours under real-world conditions (70% derate for angle, clouds, and temperature).

Do I need an adapter for solar charging the SOLIX C300?

The SOLIX C300 uses a XT60 connector. 6 of 20 panels require an adapter. The remaining panels connect directly via XT60.
