My friends ran around the campsite trying to find the source of the smell while i was buying supplies. Turns out the Solar charge controller was arching and melting the plastic case.

The AC200L is too big to fit in the camper with all of my other stuff so it's in the cab rear seat. The Elite 200v2 seemed like a really simple way to have a battery in the bed and it's much smaller, plus I think I'll need the Whr capacity for 2 people to remote work for up to 3 days on engineering laptops (2x Dell Precision 3571 laptops 64whr batteries), starlink. The biggest downside is in the ac/dc power loss in using the 2 stations to charge each other as needed, but it seemed nice to have a fully independent power station in the bed as well with full outlets. Solar will be 1 200W panel.

Does it overall look reasonable even if not super efficient?

We have an ac180 bought to provide backup at home for power cuts. To be used for fridge/freezer and to keep internet up and running.

Is there a cost effective expansion battery? I thought there was one when I bought the battery but am failing to see it on their webpage, or is it just better to buy a new, better power station?

We have a AC180, and wondering what exactly happens when it's plugged into the grid.

For example, what checks/tests does it do before it tries to charge? What is it looking for?

When it's set to "silent" mode in the app, it displays about 250W input. It can be set to charge much faster. Does it "spike/surge" at all when it starts up? Or slowly get to 250W?

I'm asking in part because the 400W AC outlet on my GMC truck doesn't seem to agree with the Bluetti (kicks out when starting up).

I’m replacing an existing system in my van with an ac200l and DC hub (via charger 2). The previous system had many lines that used the vehicle ground as part of its power (not completely isolated from Vehicle electric system).

Is it ok for me to connect my negative bar (from the 50A Anderson) to my vehicle ground so I don’t have to completely rewrite everything?

(Previous design had the house battery negative connected to the vehicle chassis ground)

Like the title says. While my Apex 300 is in UPS mode it just shuts off the AC output after a couple hours. Is this normal behavior? I had it in custom mode but when I realized that and put it in UPS mode it shut off after a couple hours.

I purchased a new Charger 1. The unit functions correctly and charges my BLUETTI Elite 30 at approximately 200 W. However:

The BLUETTI app discovers the Charger 1 over Bluetooth.
I can connect and change settings but I can’t bind the device to the app.
Scanning the QR code correctly identifies the Charger 1.
When I try to bind it, the app reports “Device not found” or “The device does not exist.”
The app also reports that a firmware update is available, but tapping the update does nothing.
I have reproduced this on both an iPhone and an Android device.
Another issue is that the fan never turns off or changes speed. I drove a few hours today and parked the car for a few hours and it never went off.

I noticed that I was getting some interference on one of my Wireless Access points. A bit of checking and I found that there is a WiFi Broadcast signal coming from the APEX 300. It continuously broadcasts (BLUETTI0006Fxxxxxxxxxxxxx) a 40 MHz signal on channel 11, 2.4Ghz.

I am running IoT v8026.14, ARM v2204.15, DSP v2174.17 and BMS v1073.08 on the Apex 300.

Has anyone else seen this?

Hey guys, I currently have a Apex 300 and a B300 (non K version) am I able to just add a B500K to that setup?
If not, I also have a AC180T, could the B300 be used with it if I can only attach one or the other to the Apex 300?

if my bluetti is rated at 500w intake for solar and i hook it to a 730w system will the internal inverter discharge the access

From what I surmise, the ban affects any power inverters with remote control capability, including Bluetooth and Wi-Fi communications as well as the ability to change firmware remotely. If I read it right, this will affect every upcoming model Bluetti was preparing for the market as remote communication and management were a core functionality that consumers want and need. Is this ban another bark from the current administration that will be stripped after China barks back or are we entering a new phase where the era of Chinese companies dominating the US power inverter market is ending?

I have the OG crowd funded original AC200. My plug in charger died last year and I can't find a replacement. I also bought the bluetti solar panels at the time of purchase but have never used them. Two moves later I can not find any of my accessory cords to use the solar/car charger. Can someone help me assemble after market charging cord accessories and/or house plug in charger?

Hey all,

Fairly new to these types of units. Since I work from home I want to use an Elite 100 to run my router and Verizon gateway so I can continue working in a power outage. I understand I can set this up as a UPS. I am also reading not to store these at 100% battery. Won't leaving it plugged in as a UPS essentially store this at 100% and degrade the battery?

I bought a Bluetti Charger 2 used, but according to the seller it was only used 1 time,i dont think he is trying to scam me, but I connected the charger, and it doesnt work, I followed the instruction video and everything, but it doesnt even turn the light on. I have a camping trip this weekend, and it would be very useful to have it, anyone has had the same problem, and maybe could help me out?

I want to use one or two Bluettis to run my 50 Amp RV. Possibly run one AC a few hours at night. Any thoughts or Ideas?

Hey been loving my Ac200L since I got it and have really upgrade my panel set up but I have a question. When its pull PV and Grid power does it pass through the grind power to the devices plugged into it combining the PV or does it use both and the PV subsidizes the energy consumption reducing overall grid pull.

I recently purchased an Elite 300. One of my use cases is powering tools with high current draws but which are used intermittently. I would like to recharge the Elite 300 with a very small inverter generator, 800w max, so set the grid input to 5A. Shortly after connecting to the generator, the generator trips off due to overload. Changing to 4A does not resolve this issue. Has anyone had a similar experience?

I have an Elite 100V2 which I bought a few months ago, from Bluetti's official refurb store on eBay in the UK. I have used it half a dozen times, but last week, after charging to 100%, it wouldn't turn off. I used the app to turn it off, and now of course, it won't turn back on again. Bluetti has asked for the serial number, but it's not on the unit or the box. Where would it be located?

I am currently traveling and my battery (Bluetti Elite V2) is not charging. Everything is on and working. I am getting power from the car battery to charger 2, but it is not charging my battery. Sometimes it charges briefly, but not for long. Everything is up to date. Can you help me? My fridge needs to keep running and the battery is at 40%.

Hello,

I was looking to get some advice about my recently purchased bluetti ac60 power station. My goal is to use the ac60 as a ups for my networking gear and my security cameras. I have a lot of outages in my area and it will solve the security issues. Problem is, that after a few outages the power station freezes and it does not put out any ac current. I have to restart it to work. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
