My 1 year old F2000 is still going strong and I am just trying to store the energy for a longer run time. I have been eyeing on this battery for a while now and finally pulled the trigger.
I can buy C2000, but it will only have 2048wh capacity. Also, with more inverters, I will have more battery drain during idle and load.

I thought the C2000 was the upgraded version of the F2000 except for the bar light? I already own the F2000 and the new C2000 is smaller and lighter, but as far as I understood, had the same ratings and capacity of the F2000. Also, the C2000 charges faster than the F2000 and battery drain during idle is lower than the F2000.
The current price for the C2000 on Amazon is $679. The best price in the last week I saw for the C2000 with an expansion battery (doubling capacity) was $1250 on Anker's website. I'm not sure if that price is still available.

Definitely C2000 is a better unit, much lighter, and it has smaller parasitic drain, but it will still drain more since it has an additional inverter. If you need more power, and you don't mind switching the unit back and forth, then buying a C2000 would be the right way to go. My weight limit of lifting power station without wheels is around 30lbs, and that would be a C1000 (without expansion battery). In my use case, I don't need more power and I don't want to keep moving/switching it back and forth, I just need larger capacity to supplement my main solar system during extended cloudy/rainy days.
If you don't mind spending more, you can definitely get that the C2000 + the extended battery (you will get more, but you will pay more).
