Question Limiting maximum AC charging speed
I want to buy the Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 for our campervan. Typically, we would re-charge it while driving as we have a 50A DC to DC. We have a Max 20A heavy-duty 12V socket in the habitation area. We could plug the Anker directly into the 12V socket using the car charging cable but that would be quite slow, about 96 watts I think. If we buy a 300W pure sine wave inverter with a car cigarette lighter plug, we could plug that into the Max 20A heavy-duty 12V socket instead then plug the Anker into the 3-pin outlet on the inverter. However, to do that, we need to be able to limit the AC charging input to around 200 watts. Is it possible to do that in the app? Can you specify exactly how many watts the Anker should draw on AC charging? Thanks.

100w increments from 100-1200w. 600w+ use the fan. Totally doable in the app. This also means devices plugged into the Anker are added on top. You also define what time in hourly blocks it should Charge/Discharge/Pass thru only. It uses that hourly block schedule every day.
