Anker has dropped the Solix F3800 Plus and expansion battery from $7,298 to $3,798 right now. However, if you use the coupon code DEALF3800PEB, that price drops further still to just $3,598, which is just over 50% off. Just keep in mind you only have until March 31.

The Anker Solix F3800 Plus with the expansion battery delivers a massive 7,680-watt-hour capacity and 6,000-watt output, so this is not just about keeping your phone alive during outages. It's built to handle real essentials like refrigerators, AC units and other heavy-duty appliances without constantly checking limits.

What makes this hit different is how usable it feels day to day. It's a cleaner, quieter alternative to traditional generators, with none of the fuel hassle, and it's designed to scale if you want to expand your setup later. It's the kind of system you buy once and actually rely on when things go sideways.

The best thing about this unit, according to CNET's former Labs Manager Steve Conaway, is that you get both standard 120-volt outlets and split-phase 240-volt output in a single system, something most portable power stations don’t offer, even though 120 volts covers most everyday needs.

The catch is simple. This pricing window is tight. Deals like this in the high-capacity power category do not stick around, so you'll want to use the coupon code DEALF3800PEB while you can. Once the March 31 deadline passes, you're likely looking at a steep jump back toward that original $7,298 price.

If this is more power than your setup calls for, our roundup of the best portable power stations of 2026 has plenty of smaller, more flexible alternatives.

Why this deal matters

If you just need a battery to keep phones charged and run a fan, this is overkill. But if you want serious backup power that can actually keep your home running, this is a great deal. You're getting the Anker Solix F3800 at better than half price, but this deal won't last long. This is one of those rare moments where waiting probably costs you.
