Just a heads up.....Bluetti will be releasing an EB55 probably starting in August (per an email from them). This is already available in Japan. Not sure which one I will purchase but will wait to at least see what the EB5 is about.
The EB55 will have the same amount of storage but go from 300 to 700 watt continuous output. Personally I think for most people the AC50s or EB70 will be a better bet. The AC50S is quite a bit smaller because it doesn't use the newer battery technology and is more efficient than the EB70 so if you need a battery around that size (like say for a DC fridge) I think the AC50S will be better suited and if you need to be able to put out 700 watts continuously you'll probably want the EB70 with the lager capacity. The one advantage the EB55 will have is that it will have a lot more cycles before degradation but I don't think that will be a good enough trade for the reduced efficiency. I'm guessing they are doing the change to simplify how many battery chemistries they need to support but I think at the end of the day the AC50S will be a better buy especially if you get a deal.
@@outdoormatters3219 That is kind of what I could glean from the ads, but since I cannot read or write Japanese.............I think the EB70 is going to work better for me - want to have a backup for our trailer battery without going the noisy gassy generator route. I don't need enough to power A/C or microwave. Afterall, we ARE supposed to be camping ... Ben
EB70S battery cells last 2500+ cycles ac50s 100+, also i saw a youtube vid DIY offgrid solar with will where he shows the ac conversion rate being 250wh half the capacity which is horrible i mean im surprised more ppl are not complaining of this
I would like to know the screen user experience and fan noise between the two, can anyone answer on this? All I am looking for would to be keep 2 macbook pros and a phone charged on the road. Thank you!
I have a 320 watt 48v solar panel on the roof of my van. Understanding that solar never produces what it's rated at, can I(somehow) step down my solar to 24v for direct charging? How will the unit react to too many watts in some times? Any way to limit the watts coming into the unit?
Thats true of course. Even if they could they wouldn't for long. If you want something to power a fridge or something that would be a very different class of product both in size and cost.
*The solar **Generater.Systems** E300 is a great product . It does everything well. Great job, Jackery.*
Great analysis of the two generators, thank you!
Glad you liked it!

EB70 is what I use for camping and it works great.

AC50s can handle up to 40v
Charge speed is slower but can be over paneled
Truthfully the solar charge speed isn't dramatically different. The EB70 does around 150 while the AC50S does 120.

I'm sorry but thats outside of my wheelhouse. I'm not sure what the reality of stepping that down to something usable would be.
The problem w/ the smaller units (500W & less) is that they won’t power many appliances.

Not only that but you will only get 48 hours max powering a portable fridge with the ac50s.
👍
And that fosefate battery
Yep!
