Charging the Power Station

AC Outlet Charging (max. 750 W): Connect the power station to a wall outlet using the AC charging cable.

UltraFast Charging (max. 1,100 W): This feature must be activated via the Anker app. While convenient, regular charging is recommended for optimal battery health.

Solar Panel Charging (max. 300 W): Connect solar panels to the PV input port using the XT-60 charging cable. The solar input supports 11-60V charging with a maximum current of 10A. Anker recommends using Anker solar panels for best compatibility.

DC Charging: Connect the power station to a DC output source (like a car's DC outlet) using the DC charging cable.

Low Battery Reminder: When the battery level drops to 1%, the battery indicator will flash to remind you to recharge.

Powering Devices

AC Charging: Press the AC outlet button and connect your devices to the AC output ports. The power station can intelligently detect if a device is plugged in and will automatically shut off after 15 minutes of no detected device to save energy.

USB Charging: Connect your devices to the USB-A or USB-C ports.

Car Socket Charging: Turn on the car socket and connect your devices to begin charging.

Camping Light Compartment: The compartment on top of the product can store and charge up to two Anker camping lights simultaneously.

AK-01 Camping Light

Charging the Camping Light: Charge the camping light using the spring contact. Indicators will blink during charging and remain lit when fully charged. Ensure the power station is turned on while charging the camping lights.

Using the Extension Rod: The multi-functional extension rod can be extended up to 1 meter. Open the connection port, secure the rod with the bottom screw, and attach the camping light using the magnetic ball.

Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)

To use the UPS function, connect the power station to a wall outlet via the AC charging cable. Then, press the AC outlet button and connect your devices to the AC outputs.

Visual Description: The diagram shows the power station connected to a wall outlet, with devices plugged into the AC outputs, demonstrating the UPS setup.

SurgePad™™

The SurgePad™™ function allows the power station to power high-wattage devices (up to 1,600 W) without overload. SurgePad™™ automatically engages when the total output exceeds the rated power, enabling the power station to supply rated power to high-power devices.

• SurgePad™™ does not function in bypass mode (when the power station is being charged via AC output).
• SurgePad™™ is best suited for heating devices and not for precision instruments or devices with strict voltage requirements. Test with your high-wattage devices to ensure compatibility.

Anker App for Smart Control

Control your power station using the Anker app. Download the app from the App Store or Google Play. After successful connection, you can use the app to manage your device, including firmware updates. Ensure the power station is charging and connected to Wi-Fi during updates.

Light Features

Ambient Light: Press the button once to turn on the ambient light. Press up to two more times to cycle through brightness levels.

SOS Mode: Press and hold the button for 2 seconds to activate SOS mode.
