Rules where you live

Rules for plug-in batteries differ by country. Anker's user guide lists an AC cable with a Schuko plug (a continental European plug) in the box, and we could not confirm a UK version. In Great Britain, plug-in solar kits of up to 800 VA have been legal since 27 August 2026, but the rules exclude plug-in batteries.

Check the rules, incentives and tariffs for your own country in our country guides.

Where this information comes from

We have not tested the Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro. Every figure above comes from Anker's own user guide (A17C5), its support article comparing the Solarbank 3 and Solarbank 4, and its Italian product page, last checked on 10 November 2026. Where Anker's pages disagree we say so. A value that these pages do not state is shown as not stated.

We do not show prices, because they change often and differ between sellers.

Common questions about Anker SOLIX Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro

Can I use the Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro as a plug-in battery in my country?

It depends on local rules. Anker's user guide lists a continental European plug, and in Great Britain plug-in solar kits up to 800 VA are legal since 27 August 2026 but the rules exclude plug-in batteries. Check your country in our country guides.

How much can the Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro store?

One unit holds 2,688 Wh. Anker lists up to five BP2700 expansion batteries, for up to 16.2 kWh in total.

Why do Anker's pages give different on-grid output figures?

The user guide lists 800 W for the on-grid terminal, while Anker's comparison article lists 1,200 W on-grid. We show the user guide figure and could not confirm which applies in your country.
