So that would be 60v 12 amps to achieve 700W.
ZERO BREEZE SOLAR GENERATOR MANUAL
So it is not “plug it in and forget”, but constantly checking the charge to make sure it doesn’t drop below 10%.įor the solar charging, they advertise 700W, but the maximum input per the manual is 12 amps. The ECO will turn off after 4 hours of no-load or light-load, such as using a laptop charging. Leaving the AC output on without a load will use significant battery power overnight (when there’s no solar charging). So my assumption is there is no DOD shutdown protection to prevent damaging the batteries by running my fridge on DC. And you can use power until 0% but please try not to do that.” If you drain it to this low battery, it will hurt the battery’s lifespan. When I asked if the unit would shutdown at 10% on the display, or if 0% on the display would leave 10% per the DOD settings, their written response was “It will shut off when it’s under ECO mode and out of battery. But the previous paragraphs says that if the battery capacity is less than 5%, charge ASAP. Their technical support via email is also lacking in technical details.įor example, the manual says the power station has a Depth of Discharge (DOD) setting of 90%, which means that only 90% of the battery capacity can be discharged. I’m happy with my AC200p using it in my camper van, but wish they would publish more technical specs.

I’d definitely want to see hardware switches, at least for the 6 AC 110V outlets. You’ll pretty much have to send it back to the manufacturer to have it taken care of.Īll the switches and controls apart from the main On/Off button can be accessed only through the display. I wish Bluetti upgraded the next version with a brightness sensor or at least offers several brightness settings. It works really smoothly but it's a pain to read in bright daylight. Yes, the display offers a great user experience, but it needs improvement. Hey, but you’ve just raved about how great the display is. Yet, as the lithium-iron battery technology advances, let’s hope Bluetti offers a new model which will be more portable. If mobility is important for you, this might not be the best option. Not to mention all the things you can charge.

The Bluetti AC200P is definitely good weight - plenty of power plus the cutting edge battery. However, when talking about camping and RVing gear, I like to make a difference between good weight and bad weight.Ī good weight is the one that gives you something in return.

I have no problems moving it from place to place, but it might be a problem with someone with a bad back.

The Not-So-Good Things about BLUETTI AC200P! Heavy!Īt 60 lbs, this power station is definitely not the most portable out there. This is really handy when you want to start charging the battery with the first rays of the sun. Using complex algorithms, this unit maximizes charging efficiency via solar panels, be it flexible or the regular portable ones.Īn interesting feat I noticed about solar charging: Even if the power station is turned off, it automatically comes to life when solar panels engage. On the downside, LiFePo4 batteries have worse energy density than lithium polymer, which means they will always be heavier than lithium-polymer units with similar battery capacity.Īs a standard piece of technology for modern power stations, the AC200P comes with an MPPT solar charge controller. It doesn't surprise that many top electric vehicle brands, including Tesla, are shifting to lithium iron phosphate technology. The heart of the Bluetti AC200P is the latest technology lithium iron phosphate (LiFePo4) battery.Īt about 3500 charge cycles, this is a massive leap from the 500 cycles that regular lithium-polymer batteries provide. This power station wouldn't be what it is without the innovative battery technology that gives it an edge over the competition.
