It has 6.3k installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 26, 2026. Anker Solix is a Home Assistant integration that monitors and controls Anker Solix power devices through the Anker cloud. It was first built for the Solarbank E1600, and the library behind it also covers other Solarbank models, MI80 micro-inverters and Anker smart meters. Devices can optionally be reached through the Anker MQTT server, which provides real-time data and is the route for portable power stations and home energy systems. It adds sensors, switches, numbers, selects, schedule times, buttons and a firmware update entity, plus actions to read or change the Solarbank schedule, backup charge settings and Time of Use plan. Options cover excluded entity categories, update interval, request throttling and MQTT use. It is set up in the UI with an Anker account, and a second shared account is recommended because one account cannot be used in the Anker app and the integration at once.

A parallel usage of the same account in this integration and the Anker App is not possible. - **Password** - **Country** - **Accept Integration usage terms and conditions** Also asked when signing in again. ### Anker Solix options - **Excludable entity categories**: Depending on the excluded categories shown above, the number of entities and API requests can be reduced (especially for energy categories) - **Update interval**: Note: The data on the cloud server is updated every 60-300 seconds at most if no MQTT real-time data update has been triggered. An update interval of less than 60 seconds therefore only offers advantages in conjunction with MQTT use. - **Interval multiplier for device details** - **Delay for subsequent Api requests** - **Timeout for Api requests** - **Endpoint request limit per minute**: Note: The Anker cloud Api enforces a request limit per minute and endpoint. To avoid Api errors, identical endpoint requests are throttled to 10 per minute once the limit has been exceeded. With 0 you can deactivate endpoint throttling. - **Api payload encryption**: Note: Api payload encryption is used by default for enhanced transfer security. It can be disabled to avoid encryption related Api errors. - **Skip invalid data responses**: Note: Cloud responses with invalid or stale data will make entities unavailable. You can skip entity updates until next valid data is received again. - **MQTT server usage** - **Real time data trigger timeout**: Devices publish real time data only if triggered. The timeout is the publish duration if not triggered again. - **Integration test mode usage**: In test mode, the configuration only uses the json files in the selected folder to create devices and sensors for test purposes. Server communication then no longer takes place. - **Folder with json files for integration testing** - **Speed factor for MQTT message simulation**: If the folder contains a sequence of MQTT message files, these are simulated using the selected speed factor. ### After setup - **Excluded entity categories**: Depending on selected (= excluded) entity categories, the number of Api requests can be reduced (especially for energy categories) - **Update interval**: Note: The data on the cloud server is updated every 60-300 seconds at most if no MQTT real-time data update has been triggered. An update interval of less than 60 seconds therefore only offers advantages in conjunction with MQTT use. - **Interval multiplier for device details** - **Delay for subsequent Api requests** - **Timeout for Api requests** - **Endpoint request limit per minute**: Note: The Anker cloud Api enforces a request limit per minute and endpoint.

It was specifically developed to monitor the Anker Solarbank E1600. Support for further Anker devices like solar micro-inverters (MI80), Solarbank 2 E1600, Solarbank 3 E2700 and Anker smart meters has been added to the Api library and is available through the integration. The Anker power cloud also supports portable power stations (PPS), home Power Panels or home energy systems (HES) which are not or only partially supported by the power cloud.
