What to check before buying a new Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 on eBay
- Gen 2 versus original: the first C1000 looks similar but has lower output and slower charging; look for Gen 2 in the title and on the box.
- US or Canadian unit: both use 120V NEMA outlets; check the warranty region the seller provides.
- Included cables: confirm the AC charging cable and car charging cable are in the box.
- Lithium shipping: large batteries ship by ground; confirm the delivery estimate and carrier, and run through our eBay safety checklist.
