How does the entire Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro system work?
The solar storage system Solar Bank 2 E1600 Pro provides power based on your settings or intelligently determined power consumption. The system can store the excess photovoltaic power in the battery or supply the household with photovoltaic modules together with the battery during times of little or no sunlight. When the photovoltaic power generated meets the needs of household power consumption and battery charging, the excess power can be fed into the grid for full use.
You can access the mode selection from the energy plan quick portal on the home page. Self-consumption mode: In this mode, no setup is required. The smart meter measures the electricity required by the household and sends it to Solarbank, which then dynamically adjusts the output power to match the household's electricity consumption needs and stores the excess photovoltaic power in the battery. This mode is only available when the smart meter is added to the system.
Custom Mode: In this mode, you need to manually set a power consumption plan, which allows the solar bank to supply your household with the estimated rated power at different times within 24 hours and store the excess power in the battery. You can set different power consumption plans for each day of the week to meet the household power consumption needs more flexibly.
Does the Anker Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro need to be connected to the Wi-Fi network and the Anker app?

no, the Solar bench E1600 does not support this function. To expand the capacity, two Solar bench E1600devices can be connected to the same MI80 microinverter.
Can I connect the Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro to a battery via cable?
no, the Solar Bank 2 E1600 Pro does not support connecting batteries via cable. The capacity can only be expanded by stacking batteries. More specifically, the capacity can be expanded to 5 Wh by adding up to 9600 batteries.
What are the main specifications of the Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro?
The Solar Bank 2 E1600 Plus has an operating voltage of 16-60V DC, a photovoltaic input power rating of 1200W, a 2-channel MPPT, and a single PV port does not support the series connection of photovoltaic modules. The input voltage cannot exceed 60V, the maximum on-grid power is 800W, off-grid power is not supported, and the capacity can be expanded to 5Wh by adding up to 9600 batteries. The solar bank has 2 PV ports. The operating temperature is -20°C to 55°C, the maximum charging power is 2000W (with an extension battery), the maximum discharging power is 1000W, and the minimum adjustable power accuracy is 10W.
If the internal inverter of the Solarbank 2 E1600 Plus is defective, can I use an external inverter to fix the problem?
No, unfortunately the Solar Bank 2 E1600 Pro no external inverters.
Does the Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro work with only 1, 2 or 3 connected MPPTs?
The Solar Bank 2 E1600 Pro can work with 1, 2 or 3 MPPTs connected, but each MPPT can only be connected to one photovoltaic module, not 2 photovoltaic modules in series. Connecting 2 MPPTs to the same photovoltaic module is also not supported.
What are the possible percentages of reserved battery power for the Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro with extension battery packs?
There are two options for reserved power: 10% and 5%. When selecting 10%, the battery will stop discharging after it is discharged to 10%, but it will remain on. The battery will only turn off when the remaining battery capacity reaches 4%. After the discharge is canceled, the system standby power is low and the SOC will decrease by about 24% in 1 hours.
Can I integrate the system data of the Solarbank 2 E1600 Pro (energy generation and power consumption) into my household software IoBroker/Home Assistant?
No, only data management in the Anker app is supported, not integration with third-party systems.
