Bluetti EB70s review , solar generator . Watch before you buy !!! Link to purchase EB70s from Amazon: a.co/d/dMenMtB
I have the exact same model and only use it in case of emergency. After I use it, I connect it to my solar panel and charge it back up. I never used the charger in the box, only solar in 2 years (and used it about 20 times in 2 years). Keeps my fridge on for 19 hours straight (only happened once, the rest of the time the power came back on in a few hours). Still, it's pretty useful and great to have for peace of mind. I love it, really.
Thank you
How long is the data cable with the Renogy monitor?
My backlight is glowing on and of when charging. Do you know if that can be disabled?
Shunts waste power and generate needless heat. I wouldn't prefer them.
They dont consume anything at all its so minute it doesn't matter they read voltage drop across shunt
Hi. Thank you for your great tutorial. I just came by your video. The link to the solar all in one inverter doesn't work anymore. Is it possible to share the model and other information with me please? Thank you!
Does the Eco-Worthy show when the battery is charging from the solar panels?
nonsense!! when you have such crappy measurments-better use bms built in battery monitor....the same lottery
Stay far away from Bluetti. Their customer service is terrible and they don't honor the warranty. I've already had the full experience... buy something else. anything else!!
Does the hall effect one ready energy in?
You need one that supports two Hall sensors at the same time so you can monitor power going in and out at the same time and on one screen.
I wonder if the negative from the hall sensor is on the battery or hooked up to the shunt p- terminal. Renogy may not be reading the power the hall sensory is consuming giving a different reading. I have my renogy 500a shunt and a 300 smart shunt hooked up one after the other and they have identical readings.
thanks for the side by side it helped me
I can't see the green screen on the top??
I remember hearing that settings fail to save with power cycling on the Eco Worthy? Did you have the same findings?
You have to add the base load of 20 watts before the heater is added, then the Hall sensor is more accurate
Can you please explain? Does the hall sensor/module PS actually create a perceptible load?
can not see the green screen , needs tilting forward at the top .... 😮
Had 2 meters like the eco worthy but not eco worthy branded. Both failed after a few months and gave nonsense readings on everything except the voltage. Going back to shunt meters.
Thankful for the video but had to dislike for not showing the alarm beeps. The unit I have doesn't sound out. Alright this really helped though I'll still like
Hello, can you confirm that the coulombmeter function does what I think it does, namely: During the life of a battery 1-10 years (whatever it is) it charges and discharges, the coulombmeter function measures what current comes out and what current comes in (subtracts and adds - averages, etc.) then results (normally after several cycles, not instantly) the capacity in Ah of the battery. Let's say we have a 100Ah battery and I cycle it 20-80%, the coulomb meter should show me after some time a capacity of 60Ah (ideal). If we reduce the losses, I think somewhere around 55-59Ah. This is true ? Does it do what I think?

But LOL, you compare both and you do not measure real datal with a correct Voltage and ampmeter ?
Be cool to see a multimeter along side to see which is more accurate
Both say 92% I like the demo thanks it is all good info, I bought a hall sensor I realized that's the way my AMP meter works very cool. Still learning at 66 and it's never boring :)
Is there an easy way to define the upper and lower voltage limits (= supposedly capacity) on the Renogy?
Hi chitung2277, yes, there are options to set the 'Full' and 'Zero' voltages on the Renogy monitor. I have a 100ah 12 volt battery connected to mine and the Full voltage is set to 14.5v and the Zero voltage is set to 9.5v. This monitor also has a low capacity alarm. I've set mine to alert at 10ah on my 100ah battery. This is a great battery monitor IMO. I hope this helps !!
hello, what solar panels do you use for this set? give them their name please. Regards
Hi agralt7405, I have a few different brand solar panels but the brand that I like the best are the HQST brand. In my opinion, the HQST panels have the best price to performance ratio by a long shot. Here is the link to their site: hqsolarpower.com/products/solar-panels/ I hope this helps !
Where did you get that sticker? Reminds me of duke nukem. Great video. Thanks for sharing
Hi Code_hack, I got it from Amazon :) . Here is the link to it: a.co/d/0eulPKe
Really insightful video, great stuff!
Glad it was helpful!
60V Solar input (DC input) renders this unit as "pretty much" a hobby toy. Not for home/everyday use.
Great comparison. How does the standby draw compare between them?
Nice video. I'm looking at it for seasonal off grid. I'm curious about the customer support. Is Watts247 a good product and service provider for the US market?
How much does this system cost?
you should have placed the hall sensor before the shunt with respect to battery terminal. that means connecting cable from terminal to shunt to allow hall sensor to be placed there. im sure you connected shunt directly to terninal and hall sensor after thats why rreading on ecoworhty is high compared to renogy since it is also recording the watts consumed on the shunt.
I recently got one if these monitors an im trying to manually set the meter....i gwt it wants you to run the battery dead but how is that good on the battery? Ive always heard for agm style batteries for instance they recommend not to go below 50% capacity
Lipo4's arent like AGM or any other technology technology. You can run them down flat thousands of times before any degradation and even then, it's slight. So don't worry about using them hard.
👍👌♥️🇨🇦, gr8 stuff
Gorgeous swty 😋❤💥
Picked up a hall sensor monitor for my lithium battery/trolling motor setup on my pack canoe. It would appear that it will do the job. Thanks much!
Wow, that's the only other desk lamp I've ever seen like the one you have. It's been great on my night stand for a long time. :) I prefer the Renogy battery monitor, although they are probably very similar, aside from the Renogy using an actual shunt.
I install the meter it seems to work fine, but I don’t understand how to input my battery characteristics , I scroll through the menu I don’t know how to just settings
Is there an option in menus to turn off AC inverter when you're not using it so you're not wasting standby voltage? Also if I'm going to run 24 to 12-volt transformer off of this thing do I attach wires directly to the battery and will the system know that voltage is being drawn?
There is an on / off button that turns off all of the power outputs (AC inverter & DC outputs) but still lets you charge the battery (via solar or AC input), however, there is no option that I'm aware of in the menu for the AC inverter only to be turned off. As for the transformer question, I've not connected a 24 to 12 volt transformer to mine so I can't answer that without risking giving you bad information, my apologies. You could probably ping MPP Solar and ask them about your specific requirements though. Good luck with everything and I hope this helps.
@@oh2bfr337 thank you for your reply what DC outputs are you referring to.? I haven't bought the unit yet so I haven't quite figured out where I would hook up my DC wiring
@@Monyornothin There are 2 USB type A ports and one USB type C port built into this unit. They are fairly low powered usb ports, however, the USB C port will not charge a laptop for example. I hope this helps you out. Good luck with everything !
@@oh2bfr337 yes so after reading the manual when the unit is in standby mode the batteries can charge I assume the DC load can also run things while the unit is off because it's attached directly to the battery side so yeah I should only need to turn this thing on when I want to use AC or USB or mess with settings etc or while I have tons of sun or plugged in to shore power
I love the concept of this inverter, but they really missed the mark with their solar charge controller. The input range is so narrow! It basically won't really charge unless you have about 40 volts coming in, and 60v is the upper limit. That means you have to be really careful with your series and parallel connections on your solar panels to safely bring in the (still very limited) 750 watts it allows. If this was more like a normal charge controller, where you had a something like a 30v to 120v range, the entire unit would be very beginner friendly. As it is, the limitations of the SCC make it critical to understand your VOC and make it somewhat challenging to charge up a suitably-sized 24v battery with a single day of good solar conditions.
Very good points !!
Hi. Good video. But the link for the battery monitor lands to your breaker. Good day.

No two meters will show the exact same reading. If the are w/in 5% that's as good as you can expect outside high dollar lab equipment.
Thank you for sharing the video. It was helpful because I wanted to know the actual degree of measurement error with shunt resistors and Hall sensors. Junktek shunt resistor module failed after a few months, so I will try the same Hall sensor type.
I'm on the fence with this Renogy monitor. I installed mine about half a year ago and I initially really liked it. Unfortunately it started flaking out on me about a month ago. It would sporadically sound it's alarm and tell me I had 0% battery capacity in my bank when the bank was fully charged. It also wasn't recognizing when I had a charge going into the bank. I think I tracked it down to a faulty pin on the wire that connects the shunt to the monitor last night. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a replacement wire. To be honest though, I'm not sure I even want to spend money on a replacement if this one only lasted 6 months. It's a shame because I really do like the display. Much more than ones like the Victron which only show partial information. Maybe this Eco-worthy is what I'm looking for.
I'm having the same issue with mine. It doesn't seem to read the battery charging, just the drain. It will reset to 100% when the battery is fully charged.
Watched another vid where the guy was having the same problem. At first he thought it was that pin but then wasn't sure. I think Renogy has some work to do.
I have 2 ,23AH battery’s how do I connect it
