The Anker SOLIX F3000 takes up to 2,400 W of solar through a high-voltage solar input (11–165 V, 17 A, 1,600 W) and a low-voltage solar input (11–60 V, 17 A, 800 W). The quickest refill from a maker panel on sale today: 4 × EcoFlow 400W, 3 in series on the high-voltage solar input, plus 1 panel on the low-voltage solar input, which brings it to 1,600 W and refills its 3,072 Wh in about 1.9 h of full sun.

The panels cost $2,396 at EcoFlow, checked Oct 11, 2026. At a more typical 70% panel yield the refill takes about 2.7 h. Every arrangement here keeps the panels' open-circuit voltage under the limit on a -10 °C (14 °F) morning. Every panel we track.

Anker SOLIX F3000: solar input limits from Anker SOLIX
high-voltage solar input
11 to 165 V, 17 A max, 1,600 W
low-voltage solar input
11 to 60 V, 17 A max, 800 W
All inputs together
2,400 W (Anker SOLIX: "F3000 features 2 PV inputs that support 2,400W.")
Two panels in series add their voltages; strings in parallel add their currents. A panel's open-circuit voltage (Voc) rises on cold, bright mornings, so each arrangement below is checked with the panel's own temperature coefficient, or -0.35% per °C where the maker publishes none, at -10 °C (14 °F). Strings in parallel are kept within the input's current figure; a single string that could give more is held back by the input itself.

12 of the 18 panels fit, fastest refill first. Each uses every input that can take it; the hours are full sun, from empty.

"Full sun to refill" is the ideal floor: the station taking its input limit every hour. Panels rarely deliver their rating, so the 70% column is closer to a good day, and a usable day holds four to six hours of full sun in most of the US. Panels whose maker does not name an MC4 plug are counted one to an input, since they link to others only through the maker's own adapters.
Cables between panel and station
Panels in series need no extra part: each panel's positive MC4 plug clicks into the next panel's negative.
What a day of sun puts back
Watt-hours back in a day, at a 70% panel yield and the station's input limit. Winter in the northern US gives about 3 hours of full sun, a clear summer day in the Southwest 6 or more.
