Spec by spec

A green mark is the better published figure on that row. Blank cells mean the vendor did not publish the number — we do not estimate.

Metric	SOLIX C300	Elite 30 V2	What it means
Capacity	288 Wh	288 Wh	How much energy the unit stores. Sets how long everything else can run.
Continuous AC output	300 W	600 W	The largest load the inverter will run continuously, not counting surge.
Weight lower is better	9.1 lb	9.5 lb	The spec buyers most often regret ignoring.
List price lower is better	$329.99	$399	Hub catalogue list price (same figure as product pages). Historical lows stay off this column.
Cost per watt-hour lower is better	$1.15	$1.39	Price divided by capacity. The fairest single value metric.
Watt-hours per pound	31.6 Wh/lb	30.3 Wh/lb	Capacity you get per pound carried.
Max solar input	—	200 W	Caps how large an array is useful, and therefore off-grid recharge speed.
AC recharge time lower is better	—	70 min	Vendor-stated time to full from a wall outlet.
Rated cycles	—	3,000 cycles	Vendor claim for charge cycles before capacity degrades to 80%.
UPS switchover lower is better	—	10 ms	How long the unit takes to switch to battery. Under 20 ms keeps a desktop alive.
Warranty	60 months	60 months	Stated warranty length from the vendor listing.
