3,840Wh | 6,000W | 3,200W Solar | 240V Bypass
Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus Portable Power Station: 3,840Wh With Both Voltages and a Generator Bypass
The F3800 Plus is the unit the rest of this range is built around. A 3,840 Wh LFP pack delivering 6,000 W with 120 V and 240 V from a built-in NEMA L14-30, which means a well pump, a dryer or an air handler works from one box rather than needing two power stations and a hub.
Three upgrades separate it from the original F3800, and they are the reasons to pay the difference. Solar input rises from 2,400 W to 3,200 W on a much wider 11 to 165 V dual MPPT window, which is what makes series-wired rigid arrays practical. It gains true 240 V generator bypass at up to 6,000 W, which the F3800 does not have at all. And the special AC sockets change to a 3,000 W TT-30 alongside the 6,000 W L14-30.

Why the F3800 Plus
Recharge in Under Two Hours
At the full 3,200 W solar input, or about 1.5 hours from a 240 V generator through the bypass. Standard AC input is 1,800 W, which is considerably slower.
Connects Three Different Ways
A transfer switch, an inlet box, or the Home Power Panel. Only the Home Power Panel unlocks Storm Guard and time-of-use bill savings.
Charges EVs and Runs RVs Directly
Double-press the AC outlet button for EV mode at under 25 A, or feed an RV through the TT-30R without an adapter.
6,000 W With Both Voltages From One Box
A built-in NEMA L14-30 delivers 120 V and 240 V from a single unit, so a well pump or a dryer works without pairing two power stations. Two units in parallel reach 12,000 W.
3,200 W of Solar on a 165 V Window
Dual MPPTs accepting 11 to 165 V at 17 A each. The wide voltage range is what lets you series rigid panels instead of running many parallel strings.
3.84 kWh to 53.8 kWh
Six BP3800 expansion batteries take a single unit to 26.9 kWh. Two units with twelve batteries reach 53.8 kWh, which is weeks rather than days.
What's Included
In the Box
Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus Portable Power Station, 3,840 Wh

Quick Start Guide and Safety Documentation
Contents vary with the add-on selected above. The 240 V Gas Generator Input Adapter option adds the bypass charging cable, and the transfer switch option adds a 50 A switch with its connection cable. Expansion batteries, solar panels and the Home Power Panel are sold separately. Note that transfer switch installation requires a licensed electrician and generally a permit.

Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus Portable Power Station: 3,840Wh With Both Voltages and a Generator Bypass: Frequently Asked Questions
Which add-on should I choose?
The 240 V generator input adapter if you own or plan to buy a 240 V generator, because it takes charging from 1,800 W to as much as 6,000 W and lets the generator power your loads while charging. The 50 A transfer switch if you want the unit feeding household circuits rather than extension cords. If neither applies yet, the bare unit is fine and both can be added later.
Is the Plus worth it over the standard F3800?
If you are adding solar, yes, because 3,200 W on an 11 to 165 V window versus 2,400 W on 11 to 60 V changes what arrays are practical. If you own a 240 V generator, also yes, because bypass only exists on the Plus. If you are buying a battery to sit in the garage against outages and charging it from the wall, the capacity is identical and the standard F3800 does the same job.
How is the F3800 Plus different from the original F3800?
Three things. Solar input goes from 2,400 W to 3,200 W, on a much wider 11 to 165 V dual MPPT window instead of 11 to 60 V, which is what allows series-wired rigid arrays. It adds true generator bypass, which the F3800 does not have, at up to 6,000 W on 240 V. And the special AC sockets differ: the Plus has a TT-30 rated 3,000 W plus an L14-30 rated 6,000 W, where the F3800 has a NEMA 14-50 and an L14-30. Capacity is the same 3,840 Wh on both.
How far can I expand it?
Up to six BP3800 expansion batteries on a single F3800 Plus for 26.9 kWh. Pair two units with twelve batteries and you reach 53.8 kWh. Anker confirms that an F3800 and an F3800 Plus can be used together on a Double Power Hub or a Home Power Panel, so an existing F3800 owner can add a Plus rather than starting over.
Can I run my whole house on it?
Depends on the house and how it is connected. 6,000 W with 120 V and 240 V from a single unit covers most essential circuits including a well pump or a furnace. Two units in parallel give 12,000 W, which reaches most homes outside of central air conditioning on a hot day. The connection method matters as much as the wattage, which is where the Home Power Panel, a transfer switch or an inlet box comes in.
What does the generator bypass actually do?
It lets a 240 V generator pass power straight through to your loads while also charging the battery, at up to 6,000 W. Anker rates a full recharge from a generator at about 1.5 hours and claims up to 50 percent better fuel efficiency than running a generator continuously. Note that the Anker SOLIX Generator Adapter is required and bypass supports a single F3800 Plus unit only.
Which output ports work in which situation?
This catches people out, so it is worth reading Anker's port conditions before you buy. With no AC input connected, all ports work. Plugged into a 120 V wall outlet, only the TT-30R and the three leftmost UPS-backed NEMA 5-20R ports are usable, with a 1,440 W bypass limit, and the L14-30R is not available. With a 240 V generator connected, the TT-30R gives 3,000 W and the L14-30R gives 6,000 W, but the NEMA 5-20R ports are not available. Call us at (303) 876-7654 if that decides your setup and we will walk through your specific case.
Can I charge my EV with it?
Yes. Double-press the AC outlet button to enable EV mode and set the vehicle charging rate below 25 A. No adapter is needed; you plug the EV's own cable in. It is a range top-up rather than a full charge, since 3,840 Wh is a small fraction of a car battery.
Can rooftop solar recharge it during an outage through the Home Power Panel?
No, and this surprises people. During an outage you connect panels directly to the F3800 Plus solar inputs at 11 to 165 V. Exceeding 165 V will damage those ports, so calculate string voltage at your coldest expected temperature before connecting.
What is Storm Guard?
The system watches for severe weather alerts and charges automatically ahead of the storm, so the pack is full rather than half full when the outage arrives. Note that Storm Guard requires the Anker SOLIX Home Power Panel.
