One of the Best Portable Solar Power Stations the Bluetti AC200MAX

[@Speed00007]

I bought one over a year ago. It has saved my ass so many times! Took it to a job site in the middle of no where and it allowed us to work without needing a gas generator. Also came in handy for the power outages that seem to be happening more often in my area. Cant recommend it enough.

[@fredypalma3192]

?Can this run table saw

[@ARLGD]

That's great to hear! It sounds like the Bluetti AC200MAX has been a lifesaver for you in various situations. If you're looking for another portable power station, I highly recommend checking out the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series. It has an impressive capacity, durable design, and fast recharging capabilities. Plus, it's waterproof and offers comprehensive protections. It could be a reliable backup power solution for your outdoor adventures and home needs.

[@RadioRich100]

Wait till you need it during a storm and you cant recharge it. Gas generator just pour gas in it.

[@Speed00007]

@RadioRich100 You run your gas Generator inside your house during a rain storm? Or do you leave it in the middle of rain?

[@RadioRich100]

@@Speed00007 Outside in a ventilated housing , of course tons of other ways. But is also on wheels goes anywhere I need it. Not like your 300lb unit plus extra batteries , plus solar cells. You think that thing is safe in your house? Batteries de-gas as you charge them, not to mention one short in your battery? Would start one hell of a fire or explosion. Ever hear of that happening on planes from cell phones and vapeing stuff. Just think of what can happen if one of those 300lb batteries explodes? And you have 2 or more?

[@ravenlocke42]

You can get a T400 wall charger, which unlike the T500 it comes with, has no fan and is complete silent at 400 watts instead of 500. The added benefit is you can get an adapter and use both the t400 and t500 simultaneously to wall charge at 900 watts then if you want.

[@minutemanprep]

Great to know, thank you.

[@CuriousinNY]

Hi Raven, you mentioned getting an adapter to charge the Max with both the T400 & T500. Is that something Bluetti sells? If not, what is it called and who sells it?

[@ericb.4358]

GOT ONE! Plus an Off Grid TREK 220 watt solar "blanket" (Canadian company). The blanket charges the AC200 MAX so when car camping I always have power to run my cooler and charge my e-mountain bike's TWO Li-ion batteries at the end of the day. A very spendy setup but it beats the hell out of a Honda gas generator and carrying gas cans as well.

[@clarencewiles963]

Thumbs up 👍 The unit is and has been doing as advertised 😊 thanks for coming back to the AC200MAX and the charts you have!😊

[@minutemanprep]

Thanks Clarence!

[@Texasprepper]

You can get the D050S adapter and use 500 more watts of solar for a total of 1400 watts.

[@RadioRich100]

What do you do when theres no sun like during a storm?? Solar takes alot longer to charge then the run time you get. Its a losing proposition and very expensive, those batteries go bad then you have replace the unit. Just pour more gas in the generator and keep going.

[@ravenlocke42]

They already came out with the ac200 which was lithium ion, then the ac200p which was lithium iron phosphate and now the ac200max which is a beefed up and refined ac200p. Also the app has an offline Bluetooth mode that doesn’t require any binding or Bluetti account and will just connect you to the unit if you are in physical range.

[@suklee1400]

Great points! They also have an a/c wall charger without the fan, so its silent. It does get warm though.

[@thebolander76]

How is the updated app,do you have to use wifi and location. Loved your comment,thanks

I do Van Life and Bluetti is definitely on my agenda when I can afford one 👍 A ' competitor ' of there's turned out to be a costly mistake.

[@walione1000]

We have used the kzbin.infoUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!

[@grindychum]

Another worthy mention is Bluetti is one the very few that have expandable battery's that can be used separately and can be charged separately . The B300 has a built in 200w MPPT Charge controller. That is one of the major turn offs with the Ecoflow unit for me is if the main unit goes down, the external battery becomes a door stop.

[@petenelson8136]

Glad to hear your going to do a full review of the AC500. I'm interested in learning what you think of that as both a home backup and RV system = moving it from one to another, one power station for both.

[@minutemanprep]

Indeed I am working on that one, I need a couple more batteries to make it a full test which is what I am waiting on since I pay for pretty much all of this out of pocket. But so far, I would actually just get an Apollo that's coming out soon, it's on preorder right now. If that interests you shoot me an email to [e-mail]

[@billbradley2480]

I have a AC200 and a AC200P. They’ve been working great. I’m making distilled water with one right now. It takes 5 hrs at 650 watts to make 1 gallon of distilled water. On a good sunny day I can make 2 gallons.

[@jesselee2372]

I have 1 with the b230 and the charge enhancer. I use it to run my RV. With my 1650 watts of solar I have I used my RV including AC and microwave for 5 days straight. I only stoppe d because I moved. There's an AC 200p. And my little black AC charging brick gives me 90% I get 450 w off that thing regularly.

[@ellesnyder942]

These are listed as portable but I rarely see anyone lifting one in a video. At 60 lbs, how portable is it? I'd like to see a video with a short, non-gym going older woman lifting one from the floor to a table.

[@anotherfool9278]

Thanks for the review. I actually have bought this for my RV and really just been using it as a way to keep my fridge and security cameras on while I am out and about and not plugged in at campgrounds. But I want to get away from campgrounds so I am looking into the solar and your information has been helpful clearing things up. I was looking at getting lithium batteries, inverter, charge controller and solar panels. But now I am thinking I should get the expandable battery for this and solar panels. To run my RV full time, they would accomplish the same thing right?

[@LuisGonzalez-hk6qf]

How did this unit work for your rv im thinking about anker or this unit just trying to get some info thanks

[@xxcelr8rs]

I am thinking along same path. I see the 30 amp output to replace shore power to get AC in simple way. I have 20 foot RV, Little bit off AC off and on should be 'cool enough'. I'm a city boy, any input appreciated.

[@Chitching]

Hey bud, what would you recommend for powering an off grid cabin in Montana? Any recommendations?

[@alive-awake]

My 12 volt cigarette lighter cord -- the other end -- I can't find the place to plug in on the bluetti? Does it need another cord of some kind attached to it to plug into the bluetti? How long does it take to charge up the bluetti plugging into the cigarette lighter?

[@L_H1]

Could you run wires from the 5521 DC ports and hook them up to the battery leads of an rv house battery? Basically disconnect the house battery and use this instead. Seems like it would be more efficient to use 12v DC direct to the RV 12v system instead of converting DC-AC for the outlets and then the RV converting the AC back into DC for the 12v systems like 12v fridge, lights, and water pump.

[@johnnyjericho8472]

If the grid goes down will this work if you cant acceas the app or a cell phone?

[@minutemanprep]

[@magiccarpetrider4594]

I’m replacing the noisy ac power supply with a 12v cigarette plug AC>DC adapter for home use, alongside 200w of solar via Xt60 port. The Bluetti DC7909 port says 10amp, but the provided brick is 8. My options for a fan-less brick are 5 or 8. Am I right that the 10amp would charge twice as fast, which is not an issue for my use, but will 5 amp run cooler/safer? I’m just powering my internet and home security system when I leave home for months at a time. I’d rather be safe than fast. Concerns with 10a amp vs 5? Just bought an AC200L to power my refrigerator and freezer when I’m out of town. I’ll hook up 1200 W of solar in the spring.

How hard is it to get 5 or 6 separate 12v items (mentioned above) hooked to the 12v outputs on these. I understand the cigarette plug. But can I hook my other 12v wires to those other 12v outputs like the dc5521? Please HELP the confused.😊

I'm a nubi to this whole area. Is there a solar power generator site for dummies. A bit technical for me. My brother-in-law bought one and recommended it to me as things look to get a bit uncertain down the road politically and economically. I have another friend who bought a 4Patriot. Not sure which is best for just running standard house stuff in case the electric is disrupted for a length of time. Appreciate the help.

How good is the generator as a while system for long term? I have a ac200p. The battery not holding charge and issues after just 2 years of usages.

There was an ac 200, but did not have the extra features

[@PrecisionGroupYT]

Question when you did your depth of discharge calculation did you factor in that the AC200Max’s depth of discharge is only down to 10%? As it will cut off when the battery reaches 10% capacity to protect the battery. Thanks!

[@minutemanprep]

Yes/no. Point being, I let it run like normal just like anyone else would be able to use it. Why advertise a certain battery capacity if you only get 90% of it? I used it to it's fullest depth of discharge.

[@PrecisionGroupYT]

@@minutemanprep Ok just a constructive thought, I can follow what your saying but people should know that you can only take them down to 10% by manufacturer default to protect the batteries and maximum charge cycles. So to be fair if the battery is a 2,048wh battery which based off voltage and amps is true and the manufacturer wants you to get the longest life out of the product without damaging the battery perhaps it would be fair to state this so if we can only use 90% of 2,048wh that’s 1,843.2wh available and you got 1,630wh in your test, so 1,630/1843.2 = 0.884 or 88% of available capacity. I would constructively say that all manufacturers of Solar generators probably have a max depth of discharge on their units to protect the batteries and to be fair manufacturers should state this fact in their literature and tech specs. I apologize if this comment bothers you or rubs you the wrong way as that is not my intent I say all this in a constructive conversation only and I thank you for your video!

[@silvermonk13]

Go Jackery over Bluetti. I bought into the hype about the AC200MAX I also have a Jackery 1000. Both units lived in the same environment (in a car in Vegas, as I lived in my car for over a year out here) The Bluetti no longer turns on, (am working with Bluetti support to try and fix it.) However the Jackery has never stopped running and has become my now primary power source since the Bluetti has failed me. For the cost the amount of issues with Bluetti is crazy. I will be going forward with Jackery as my solar generator company, Bluetti is trash.

[@GoodmanMIke59]

As always, please list the MSRP when you start. ..... Please note that you have a spreadsheet that you should advertise that has a lot of this information, the comparison spreadsheet. You might want to make that a pinned comment. I am looking at a mid-cap as opposed to the Apollo. This would be an option. At 145V/15A (VOC/amps) MAX, it would be interesting to know what would happen if I connected a series 4X 37.4V/7.9 amps panels. All I ever hear is that it will "blow it up" so to speak. Since you were dancing around the edges, it would be interesting to know how these things would react based upon manufacturing specs. Would the register a fault, reset with lower voltage, amps. Using my current panels might require getting the Apollo on a second system. All fun. Good job. Would be interested to know if you can hook up over-voltage on cloudy day, then let it settle in while it's running.

[@TomYearg]

Is this better than ecoflow delta 2 max?? Can you use it while it’s solar charging

[@lindamarshett1062]

Is this something I can safely put in a conversion van with solar panels on top?

[@TechGrax]

What about the fan noise on the main unit, it is silent for a bedroom?

[@ACUmancave]

I just bought my AC200MAX and it powers my ecoflow wave 2 but on the recharge I took it into the house and plugged it in and powered it off. It was at 37% and 5 hours later it was at 52%, was that because I powered it off while charging?

[@williammckinney3362]

Hi, thanks so much for the info. I have a well pump that is on a double 20 amp breaker. Do you think that the AC 200 Max can run this pump? And, is the 3 pin output actually a 220 volt ? Bill.

[@minutemanprep]

Sorry no it will not run it. You need a system with 240v output on it. Most units that are a single unit with 240v output aren't worth getting because you can basically ONLY run a well pump and a few other 120v items. That may be good for now but further expansion down the road becomes problematic and you end up spending more. I prefer a dual unit system where you get 240v by connecting two units together. If your budget allows for that then that's the best way to go. I'm happy to help you get a system worked out if you'll email me at [e-mail].

Happy New Year. Question: does the higher power, i.e. 7*200=1400watts happen without a problem in all Power Stations or only in BLUETTI? Thanks!!

[@minutemanprep]

Many have the same solar input. How many and what kind of solar panels is determined by a device called the solar charge controller. The charge controller changes the solar panel raw voltage into battery voltage so it can safely go into the battery to charge it. Every unit has it's own charge controller and so the specs from the panel and the specs on the charge controller have to be checked to make sure you don't damage the charge controller. [e-mail]

Wanna use this in a Sienna Camper conversion. Needed to run a CPAP. I'm concerned about the units fan noise (not the wall power supply fan). I've seen some posts where people were annoyed by the units fan noise while under load. Any thoughts out there? Would the EcoFlow DELTA Max be any quieter. P.S. the CPAP will pull about 50W

[@minutemanprep]

I agree the fan noise is annoying. The Delta 2 Max is better in my opinion but there is fan noise when charging from solar or wall charger. Less noisy compared to the bluetti though. I'd love to help you finalize your setup to make sure it's the best option for you. Feel free to email me at [e-mail].

[@Alien_isolationist]

@@minutemanprep and what if it's hooked to solar panels will it run all day?

[@minutemanprep]

@@Alien_isolationist Your solar input has to exceed your inverter output. If you were running 750w and bringing in 800w then technically the solar panels are running the device and 50w would be going to the batteries. That said, in that case, it'd be enough to run the heater all day but as soon as the solar panels stopped producing more than 750w you'd start using some battery.

Know what would be good since they made to so many different types of AC200 it would be nice if they made it so the AC 200 Max could pair up with another to make 4,000 watts even if it won't make 120/240 it would probably still be okay even if it just has 120 volts that make the unit so much nicer and make it for more people.

I have two working together with a double headed 30 amp to 50 amp adapter going into a transfer switch and hitting two separate legs which like you say doesn't do 220 but I have basically doubled my battery and inverter and I can charge them from each other or swap heads to run different circuits.

[@randallchilders7208]

Don’t make the mistake of buying this model. I did and was very disappointed. The biggest concern was how long it takes to recharge. I was surprised to find it did not have an internal ac charger and the external charger (400w) took 5 hours to fully recharge the unit. As I was dry camping, that meant hours of running my gas generator instead of 1 hour that it took to charge my EcoFlow delta2max. I was also disappointed that I couldn’t use both my DC to DC charger and my rooftop solar, to charge the unit, at the same time, further extending the recharge time needed on AC. Also disappointed with the connection adapter for DC input which was threaded and stuck out nearly three inches and kept getting damaged in the back of my truck. This unit was virtually useless for my purposes. It appears that the newer version to the AC200Max (inexplicably AC200L), has a faster, internal charger.

Well if I used it AC300 Max and it can 900 watts of solar well any loads I have would have to be less than 400 watts or at least half of whatever the load is do half of one of the solar is coming cuz if I use something like this guy better than 24 hours a day non-stop. It's cuz I did a year with no exception but the good thing is if you get the batteries of the 300 they take 60 amps of solar input so I can change the batteries as well and that meant makes a difference for the loads but truthfully I probably just use that for whatever used with my 200 watt inverter or for the use my 400 watt inverter for because I never want to run out of power never want to use too much of the batteries that is in the generator just like from inverters I never want to use a hundred percent of the power only rather use 50% of it and always be able to recharge it in the daytime for a used in 24 hour. With no exception.

[@RadioRich100]

Here is a free piece of advice for your Bluetti (DONT THROW THE BOX OUT!) your going to need it! Shipping weight about 65lbs UPS shipping over $100 your cost - EVEN UNDER WARRANTY! Since nobody can fix it but them (Proprietary parts). Wait till the battery starts failing like a laptop, you know the meter says 95% - 5 hours left, and in 10 minutes it says 6% left charge battery or shut down. Me, Ill just put more gas in but not in near 10 minutes. How much will they charge you to replace that battery that didnt last as long as they said but its just outside the warranty period? You might as well buy a new unit, (If you havent learned your lesson) Ill just put a little fuel stabilizer in the gas, change the oil once a year maybe the air filter, possibly a spark plug every 10 years. It will probably run forever, if not - anybody local can fix it. Good luck with it

[@acefire4050]

You know that's the only thing I think about you I don't care about about wall charging because then the power just coming from the inverter and the generators ask you to back up the inverters so that doesn't make so much sense I will never get a gas generator or propane or anything like that I won't even get a charcoal for my grill I don't need to when all I need all I need is a little bits of tiny pieces of wood and embark which I burn for about 4 hours so that works so good so I won't even get charcoal. always all I want is a generators that can be charged off of solar panels and for some reason that makes it even better than inverters because you going to buy so many extra batteries for the inverters instead of bad by embarrassed when the road is by generators and it pretty much comes with batteries are you going to get the batteries for them which is about the same prices you didn't inverter in batteries and then you can buy solar panels even cheaper than you can buy batteries for the inverters usually. What I'm saying is by the generators and their batteries and solar panels for the same cost is what it cost to buy the inverters and batteries not including the solar panels and all those extra hookups and other things that you would usually have to have.

First of all theres no such thing as a solar generator. Its nothing but a hugh battery and inverter run by a computer. They have tons of issues. The computer glitchs, the unit has to be shut down and reset to get them running again. Solar is way too slow to keep up with the discharge rate. When it runs down your done. The batteries have a life span of a few years. The price you will pay for new one will almost equal the cost of the unit plus disposal cost. You will never save any money with this thing compared to a real generator. They have error codes that pop up that disable the unit, then get out the manual. Complicated control panels. You will waste alot of money and have all kinds of techincal issues when you could have bought a super reliable honda super quiet generator and just keep it full. Will run forever. If theres a storm you cant even attempt to use the solar panels. It will let you down. And SUPER expensive. Just another high tech gadget to take your money. Keep it simple, keeps it reliable.

Never let these get to zero battery. I have an eba3 hardly used and it won't work anymore after reaching zero percent. Manufacturer claims this is not an issue even though they don't tell you in the instructions or provide no software to prevent it. Imo its a fault and failure of the manufacturer to explain it properly. Going to have to send it back and see what they can do. At least they will take it but I had to have several emails to get to that point. Beware.

Yeah if you want to share with someone share with your wife that's probably what they mean by it you know your significant other that's if she has some understanding of how trending things on and off if she needs to buy the phone if you're not around he doesn't and she understands it's just a little bit so one way she didn't understand it doesn't understand that you cannot use the phone to better understand it a little bit going to tell you I need this on so I can make hot coffee toast or eggs.

Shocking example of a battery…primitive compared to many others.
