Anker SOLIX has announced the C2000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station, a 2-kWh unit that brings flagship-level efficiency, charging speed, and flexibility to the portable power category.
Launching today, the C2000 Gen 2 will be available for pre-order at this link for $1,999 CAD and will begin shipping to customers on October 28.
Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 also features:
- 2,400 W output / 4,000 W peak power – enough for 99% of home or RV appliances
- 58-minute full recharge via AC + solar (2,600 W input)
- Ultra-low 9 W standby draw, the most efficient in its class
- LFP battery rated for 4,000 cycles, or up to 10 years of daily use
- Compact 18.9 kg frame, 25% lighter than competing 2 kWh units
- Expandable to 4 kWh with the BP2000 Expansion Battery
This announcement comes on the heels of Anker’s recent SOLIX lineup expansion, including the F3000, X1 and most recently, the C1000 Gen 2. Following its debut, the C1000 Gen 2 now headlines Anker SOLIX’s Fall Prime Day event (Oct 7 –10) with discounts of up to 55% off (CAD $449), or CAD $699 with a 200 W solar panel — setting the stage for the C1000 Gen 2’s debut as its bigger, faster sibling.
Compared to the C1000 Gen 2, the new C2000 Gen 2 doubles capacity (1024 Wh → 2048 Wh), increases power output by +400 W, adds RV compatibility via a TT-30 port, and retains the record-setting 58-minute recharge speed.
Following Amazon Prime Days, you can still get a steal on the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 with the following early bird deals:
- From October 10-27, signups open on ankersolix.ca for a 45% off redemption code to receive a free C200 DC with adjustable strap.
- From October 28-November 3, during official launch, the Anker SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 will be available on both ankersolix.com/ca and Amazon. You can get a single-unit C2000 Gen 2 at a discounted price of $1,099.
Surfshark launches the world’s first 100Gbps VPN servers
Posted in Commentary with tags Surfshark on October 10, 2025 by itnerdSurfshark has announced that they have introduced 100Gbps bandwidth servers in response to the growing demand for higher bandwidth and to ensure VPN services won’t become a bottleneck as internet speeds continue to rise.
Surfshark’s new 100Gbps servers allow VPN technology to be future-proof and ready for the growing demand when the shift to higher-capacity hardware happens.
Increased bandwidth also reduces the need for throttling or deprioritizing traffic, allowing users to get closer to their maximum internet speeds more often, even when backing up heavy documents to the cloud or downloading a game.
For this solution, Surfshark has chosen the Amsterdam location due to its impressive internet exchange (AMS-IX), which handles over 14 trillion bits per second, making it one of the world’s largest internet exchanges by traffic volume. To put this into perspective, that’s roughly 1.75 terabytes of data every second, ~560,000 simultaneous 4K streams, equivalent to about 7.5 million people watching TikTok videos simultaneously, or around 63 million people playing Fortnite at once.
