Donation of F3800 Plus Portable Power Station Empowers Kosto Family With Backup Power, Peace of Mind
Military Makeover with Montel
BELLEVUE, Wash., June 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Anker SOLIX, a global leader in power delivery and storage solutions, recently partnered with the television series Military Makeover with Montel® to provide critical home backup power for a deserving veteran. The company donated its flagship F3800 Plus Portable Power Station to retired Air Force Master Sergeant Matt Kosto and his family in Vail, Arizona.
The F3800 Plus provides accessible whole-home backup power with dual 120V/240V output, making it ideal for power outages, daily use, or off-grid scenarios. It features high-efficiency solar input, support for 240V generator pass-through charging, and scalable capacity, ensuring the Kosto family has a dependable energy source for essential appliances, medical devices, and overall household needs.
Master Sergeant Matt Kosto served over 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, with deployments to Bahrain, Kuwait, Turkey, Afghanistan, and Alaska in support of major global operations. Following his retirement, Matt faced a devastating motorcycle accident that led to the loss of his right leg. Around the same time, his wife, Virginia, was diagnosed with stage IV cancer. Through determination and resilience, the family overcame these challenges and continues to rebuild their life with purpose.
The Kosto family’s story is featured on Military Makeover with Montel®, a series dedicated to honoring U.S. military veterans and their families by transforming their homes and lives through community support and corporate partnerships. The Kosto episode will air on Friday June 20 and other select dates on Lifetime TV.
