Quick answers
- Is the Anker SOLIX F3800 better than the Bluetti Apex 300?
- Bluetti Apex 300 leads by 8 points overall.
- Which has more usable capacity, the Anker SOLIX F3800 or Bluetti Apex 300?
- The Anker SOLIX F3800, by 699 Wh — 3,264 Wh versus 2,565 Wh, a 27% advantage. At a 60 W load that is roughly 11.7 extra hours before the battery is empty. Both figures are estimated AC-delivered energy, not the nameplate battery rating — the watt-hours that actually reach your devices, which is always less than the number on the box.
- Which has more AC output, the Anker SOLIX F3800 or Bluetti Apex 300?
- The Anker SOLIX F3800: 6,000 W versus 3,840 W continuous. That gap matters only if a load sits between the two numbers — below 3,840 W both run it, above 6,000 W neither does. Surge headroom follows the same order: 9,000 W against 7,680 W, and surge is what decides whether a compressor or pump actually starts.
- How does runtime compare between the Anker SOLIX F3800 and Bluetti Apex 300?
- On the same sourced load — a refrigerator (full-size) — the Anker SOLIX F3800 runs longer: 51.8 hours against 40.7. These are planning estimates from each model's AC-delivered capacity, not stopwatch tests; real duty cycle and temperature move them.
- Which is lighter, the Anker SOLIX F3800 or Bluetti Apex 300?
- The Bluetti Apex 300, by 22 kg (38 kg versus 60 kg). Both weights are manufacturer figures for the bare unit; cables and a solar panel add to whatever you actually carry.
- Which model should I buy for my use case?
- On the sub-scores that describe each use case: the Anker SOLIX F3800 for home backup; the Bluetti Apex 300 for camping & rv. They split, so the honest answer depends on which of those you are actually buying for.
