The catch
BLUETTI Apex 300
The base unit has no direct USB or 12V outputs. If you want portable DC use, you need the optional DC Hub.
Side by side
BLUETTI Apex 300 vs Anker SOLIX F3000: F3000 serves 120V RV loads, while Apex supplies 240V from one box
Quick verdict
As the base for a one-box home system, the Apex 300 is stronger. It supplies native 120/240V and scales up into a multi-unit circuit-backup system. The F3000 is better when the job is defined by TT-30, lower complexity and 120V RV loads.
Before you buy
Why, and what it costs you
Where these two really part ways
BLUETTI Apex 300 is the better match for “I need output that is natively 120V and 240V” and “I want to power chosen circuits in my home”. Anker SOLIX F3000 is the better match for “I need to connect to an RV directly at 30A” and “I want quicker charging while I drive”.
Where this comes from
This lines up the current strong and useful fit ratings for the exact products. It does not roll them into one overall score.
The catch
Anker SOLIX F3000
One F3000 on its own only supplies 120V. Native 240V output takes a documented two-unit configuration plus extra hardware.
BLUETTI Apex 300
- Why pick it
- 240V has to come from a single base unit
- You’re building toward a large modular home system
- The catch
- The base unit has no direct USB or 12V outputs. If you want portable DC use, you need the optional DC Hub.
Anker SOLIX F3000
- Why pick it
- Your top priority is a 120V TT-30 outlet
- Built-in USB and 12V ports matter from day one
- The catch
- One F3000 on its own only supplies 120V. Native 240V output takes a documented two-unit configuration plus extra hardware.

What this page compares
Single-unit native 240V flexibility goes up against a more portable, RV-first 120V system.
This one comes down to voltage and direct dc outputs first, then to the limits of your own setup.
Which one fits
Pick the situations that sound like you
I need output that is natively 120V and 240V
BLUETTI Apex 300 lists “Native 120/240V” for voltage, while Anker SOLIX F3000 lists “120V per unit. Two units for 240V”. This can be a hard compatibility check against your power supply, connection and planned load.

- Depends
I want to power chosen circuits in my home
It is part of an ecosystem that has a documented transfer panel or inlet path. A qualified electrician may be needed for installation.

I want to monitor it remotely and set limits
Useful status, charge-rate, schedule or reserve settings are available through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth control.

My computer or router should switch to backup on its own
Its transfer mode is documented at 20ms or faster. That doesn’t make it a certified medical or double-conversion UPS.

I need to connect to an RV directly at 30A
A documented TT-30 or comparable 30A outlet is included. Before connecting, confirm the voltage, current and your RV inlet.

- Anker SOLIX F3000
- Better fit
I want quicker charging while I drive
Vehicle charging gets materially faster with a documented first-party or broadly compatible DC-to-DC accessory. Installation limits still matter.

How we worked this out
This lines up the current strong and useful fit ratings for the exact products. It does not roll them into one overall score.
One of them covers more of your list
BLUETTI Apex 300 meets 3 of the 3 needs this comparison is built around. Anker SOLIX F3000 meets 2 and misses “I need output that is natively 120V and 240V”.
How we worked this out
The count uses the current strong and useful fit ratings for these two products. Each need counts once, with no made-up score added on top.
How many models fit “I need output that is natively 120V and 240V”
5 of the 50 portable power stations checked fit this need. BLUETTI Apex 300 makes the cut. Anker SOLIX F3000 does not.
How we worked this out
The count filters every model in the current category for a strong or useful fit on this single need.
Models that handle “I need output that is natively 120V and 240V” and “I might expand battery capacity later”
5 of the 50 portable power stations checked handle both “I need output that is natively 120V and 240V” and “I might expand battery capacity later”. BLUETTI Apex 300 makes the cut. Anker SOLIX F3000 does not.

Spec by spec
Where they really differ
| Spec | BLUETTI Apex 300 | Anker SOLIX F3000 | In practice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Voltage | Native 120/240V | 120V per unit. Two units for 240V | It can act as a strict compatibility test against your power supply, connection and planned load. |
| Direct DC outputs | Optional DC Hub required | Built in | Higher published output is useful only if your room, surface or workload calls for the extra headroom. It does not, by itself, prove better results. |
| Base capacity | 2,764.8Wh | 3,072Wh | It is the stored energy available before you need an expansion battery or a recharge. |
Trade-offs
What each pick costs you
With BLUETTI Apex 300
- It weighs about 84 pounds. Marketplace availability has been inconsistent, so before checkout confirm the model is the Apex 300 and check the seller warranty.
With Anker SOLIX F3000
- It rolls well on level ground at about 91.5 pounds, but getting it up stairs or into a vehicle is a two-person lift.

Show the facts and the math
How we countedThe count uses each product's current fit ratings for “I need output that is natively 120V and 240V”, “I might expand battery capacity later”, and “I want to power chosen circuits in my home”. A need with no documented match is not counted.
How we calculatedThese are nominal watt-hour ratings. How much energy you get out depends on inverter losses, temperature and load. For context, 50 of 50 models publish comparable figures.
