The Bluetti AC60 + B80 Has A Slick Trick Up Its Sleeve

[@PreppinontheCreek12]

Glad to see Bluetti noticing your channel. Great review!

[@JustlifeTomSandraYordi]

Our combination of ac Max and b230 also sometimes has the aforementioned problem. The ac Max is set at 50 percent and the b230 at 25 percent. Does not happen often but does occur. I solve it by draining both units to say 5 percent. If you then charge again it goes back to perfect synchronization for a while the charging and discharging of both units.

Bluetti final showing you some love! Glad they are looking for real world use reviews and not just capacity testing! Great review as usual! Let’s see how it holds up under Ive usage! I know you want to try that waterproof claim!😊

[@AskIveSolar]

I appreciate that Jay. I'm really trying to make sure I'm delivering good content in my lane.

[@markhager8321]

Interesting set up Ive. I wish I had a place to use this. LIFPO? I didn’t here that. Thanks for the review. Really thorough.

[@AskIveSolar]

Yeah it's lifepo4. It's funny because I almost put that in the thumbnail ha.

[@rjbfreelander2]

I do like that fact that you can use the Bluetti extra batteries separate from the main unit. I ma all Ecoflow units currently, if they allowed the Delta 2 Max EB to be used separately that would of been amazing. That being said I do love the dual MPPT controllers on the Delta 2 Max.

[@AskIveSolar]

Yeah they really need to do something with their batteries because if that main unit has issues, then your extra battery is useless. I dont understand why they went that route.

[@iggyguy88897]

Bluetti messed up here . 600w inverter on a system that can be expanded so much . 1000w inverter would made a big difference. But in till ecoflow and Bluetti get there quality control right and customer service has to be about 1000% better . At the price theses two companies are charging.

[@Roll2Videos]

Very nice!

[@AskIveSolar]

Glad you think so too

[@Jasonoid]

It's interesting Bluetti is going away with barrel plugs.... At least on this one and the AC180. I think they should include them. Great video, this is the first AC60 video I've actually watched haha

[@AskIveSolar]

My man! I was thinking about you a few days ago, wondering how the trip went. The AC200P 5521 ports are so underpowered, maybe that's why they just said bump it. I'm always disappointed when I remember they are capped at 3a. It's a cool but waaaay overpriced device. It's needs to perpetually be on sale. Lol

[@lulz1978]

Nice!

[@somemore9784]

Even though its waterproof I'd still probably panic about having it in the rain haha.

[@AskIveSolar]

Haha, yeah I still dont play around with my phones that are water proof or whatever so I feel you .

[@eddiet3026]

Hey Ive! This looks like a decent 1.2 Kwh setup! I'm not so bummed about the lack of the 5521 ports considering that it's water resistant. Also, I like the 100w PD USB port which can be converted to several dc output voltages. Works for me!

[@thomasborish5063]

Interesting that it is waterproof. Did I miss it? Is the B90 battery waterproof too?

[@AskIveSolar]

Yep. Ip65 just like the main unit.

[@step0011]

Hey, jfyi the error margin with the load showing 37w with your router, it's showing apparent power, not real power. The shunt is a bit dumb and doesn't compensate for the phase shift with the capacitor dropper in the modem power supply, they just show accurate resistive loads but capacitive loads, it's just way off. Same kinda thing happens with the EB3a with certain loads. Don't worry though, it's still going to be pulling the actual 20w from the battery pack though.

[@AskIveSolar]

Thanks! That's great to know. Appreciate it.

[@step0011]

No problems, I like your video style. daily driving and giving genuine reviews based on what you experience, I appreciate that you go to these efforts. If you're enjoying it, keep it up. I recently bought an Allpowers R1500 for £380 ($470ish) I can't fault it for a 1800w 1152wh device. Already looking at some of their more powerful devices lol

[@AskIveSolar]

@step0011 thanks for that! Greatly appreciate it. And that R1500 price is crazy!! I have one. Just got it recently. Still messing around with it. But wifi and BT connectivity with 1800 watts and that much solar input is bananas

[@step0011]

Absolutely, was an AliExpress 11/11 special direct from Allpowers and I had a tonne of vouchers. 2 days later it arrived out the blue.

[@lessstuffmorefreedom-livin6886]

Good video I'm impressed actually by the evil empire... I still just can't get over how much money those expansion batteries are along with that primary unit being only 400 watt hours for the cost, seems crazy and way too much money

[@AskIveSolar]

Yeah the price is wild for us regular people. Haha But they seem to have a built a nice device.

[@JustlifeTomSandraYordi]

Now when you see the prices of this unit and the ac max. I would still really buy the ac max much more battery capacity for less money. At least in our country prices are like that anyway. The only advantage with this unit is the fast charging feature. But something you don't have you don't miss either 😂

[@AskIveSolar]

Big facts @ you don't miss what you didn't have. Ha

[@robertkinney9224]

NO SALE......There are numerous quality 2000wh/1500w and higher inverter set ups for less that $1200.00

[@AskIveSolar]

It's a niche product for sure
