Grid Tie Solar Generator: Soyosource vs. Bluetti EB70

[@mrourcanada8964]

Those solar generators are an excellent thing to have around the house so many different uses even to go camping with you could even take all your fans for your GPUs and the fans in the cases and I’ll run them off a battery they’re all 12 V that would save a little bit of money on mining

[@CursedMining]

Yeah 100% man. The nerd in me wants every room to have one of these now ahahaha, but then I calculated how much getting the office over a night alone would cost with these bad buys.. ugh. Rough! But something to slowly experiment with and expand a bit :) Cheers my friend, hope you are well!!

Very nice, i have bought the same inverter to connect to the 12v 30a output of my Bluetti AC200Max. When the bluetti is giving 160 watts i get 141 watts to the grid. The max i can pull from the bluetti is 230 watts but then i get 184 watts to the grid wich seems ineficcient.

Nice review of the EB70. It does charge slow when you use the supplied AC brick charger.

[@CursedMining]

Thank you mate! The solar-youtubers would probably laugh about this experiment, but it was great fun 😁 trying to only charge these through the sun (.. let's talk again in Winter, haha) cheers and thanks for tuning in :)

Nice idea, I'm thinking about something similar too.

[@CursedMining]

Hey Roman! Grid tie stuff and batteries are super interesting, I fell down the rabbit hole haha. Cheers mate :)

​@@CursedMining i just started on solar and im quickly falling down the rabbit hole. have two bluetti eb3as and im looking at this one now. but thinking about waiting because maybe they will come out with a new one that has eb3a new features.

[@CursedMining]

@@markjoyous3525 Hey Mark! I completely understand :D Solar + generators are absolutely addictive!! I read about the EB3A but it does not seem available in the EU yet unfortunately. The new features are awesome! Currently undecided myself what would be the next one! Cheers and thanks for tuning in :)

Can you do this with the bluetti ac50s? Thank you for the video so informative... Interested in also trying.

[@CursedMining]

Hey man sorry for the late reply! So yes, you can do the same on the AC50s but I saw the outputs of it are a bit different. So on the barrel DC-out you have less ampere on it, but on the 12V car charger port you have 10A, so either do the same as me with DC-barrel but you will have less output, or do the same but on the generator side use the 12v car charger output :) (or the option with using an actual power supply on the main output mentioned in the video would work here as well). Glad you like it, hoping to bring more power related videos :) cheers and happy experimenting!

@@CursedMining Dankeschon die video war geil! Muss ich probieren👊

@@skateboarddemos5497 Gerne 😁 Strom macht Spaß 😁😁💪🏻 liebe Grüße!

I did like the EB70 however when I found out that it does not have the capability to add an extra battery I did shy away from it.

[@CursedMining]

Heyho, I was torn between expandable bigger models first as well too (AC200 or biggest EcoFlow) but ultimately wanted to start small :) now I know it works for me, so time to think how to expand :) what did you ultimately get in terms of powerstation? Thanks for tuning in! :)

[@JulianGoesPro]

@@CursedMining have you thought about opening it up and adding a connection to the batteries from the outside so you could “just” add additional packs (self managed/balanced) ones for extra capacity or are you more limited by max current then capacity? On a good day a get close to 200W with my solar but mostly around 50-150W, but not sure my EB3A is as powerful as yours…

I bought the Ecoflow River to be prepared for possible blackouts in the future

[@CursedMining]

One of my first panels was an Ecoflow one because the foldable style was easier to test different locations - it works well! Battery-wise only the very big Ecoflow had LifePo though, so I didn't want to get one (yet). They have great stuff - are you also using the River in everyday life situations? Cheers Holger!

[@HolgerWittig]

@@CursedMining For me the li-ion battery is good because you can have up to 1200W or 2x 600W output. Sometimes I use it to charge my mobile devices.
