The Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro from Anker SOLIX is a compact, all-in-one balcony power plant with 1.6 kWh LiFePO4 storage, four MPPT trackers, and 800 W AC output. It enables intelligent self-consumption optimization, modular expansion up to 9.6 kWh, and weatherproof operation. Ideal for households and tenants who want to combine energy independence, cost savings, and easy installation – similar to the SunLit solutions from DRBO Greenenergy.
How does the Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro work?
The Solarbank converts solar power into usable household electricity via four MPPT channels, stores surplus energy, and feeds it dynamically into the grid. In combination with a smart meter, the system automatically adjusts power feed-in and storage operation to consumption peaks, increasing self-consumption and reducing grid reliance.
Step-by-step function
-
PV modules charge the storage (16–60 V, max. 16 A per channel).
-
Integrated inverter generates 230 V AC for household appliances.
-
App analyzes consumption and yield data, controls storage and feed-in.
The emergency power socket (up to 1000 W) provides energy during power outages. DRBO Greenenergy recommends similar systems for efficient energy management.
