Great review Marine X. Love to see the expansive tests instead of a tool test here or a coffee/microwave/air fryer test there. Just picked up the ac180 & deciding whether to get the ac180P or a refurb ac200L depending on holiday prices. i currently have 2 other Bluetti stations & they keep upping the game.
It’s a nice unit but without the RV hookup there would be no way to tie it into the transfer switch to power the house. No go for me, my Anker 767 does exactly what I need it to, same capacity and $500 less retail.
I stated with the EB3A then went for AC 180 now ac70 but if i had to buy another one either AC200L or 200 Elite v2 could be my choice. I rent a house so not question i can use a transfer box system.If i was the owner that is what i would do. But the 3 power station i own i like Bluetti product.
@abqwalt no problem and I think I misread your message. My air conditioner is 14000 btu and runs 1300w. So this unit handled it for about an hour and a half. Here's the link amzn.to/3ZaTGuc
@marine x I need your help. I want to use my first solar generator primarily for camping but also in case of power outages. The main thing is that id like to be able to power a portable air conditioner or heater when its super hot or cold. I attempted camping in 100 degree heat this summer. Whew. Im trying to decide between the Pecro. 3600 lfp, pecron 2400 lfp, bluetti 200 v2, or pecron 1500lfp. Im a little concerned about weight but pecron has a trolley for the 3600. Im completely new to solar. What should i do? Just tell me please. Im so tired of looking at videos. Im stressed. Lol. --tent camping
Hi. Unfortunately I've never tried the pecron systems. Right now the bluetti elite 200 V2 has the best capacity usage on the market. For an a/c or heater a 2048wh unit may only run those devices for an hour and a half. If that's all you need the elite 200 V2 is a go. I'll be releasing a video on a dabbsonn unit soon which is my favorite for expandability
One RUclipsr recently reported that if you left solar panels plugged in to this unit over night, that the next day, this unit would not auto-start solar charging. There are several units on the market that will. Did you test this feature or lack of it?
Been asking reviewers what Solar setup/array can I use to reach close to the 1000 watt input capability and still be within the volt/ amp ceiling? Thanks
Great review. My current unit is the Ecoflow, which I have good luck with, but I know Bluetti makes a good product also
Thanks much brother
Thanks for the info. That unit definitely seems like a solid choice if you're in the market for power station.
Totally agree. Very impressive
Props to the time you put into your videos, thank you brother !
Wow, you really nailed this review in my opinion! You answered everything I was wondering about. Thanks for a great review.
No problem
Nice video keep up the great work my brother
I like mine so far.... hoping it lasts as it's advertised too

Thanks much! Yeah those tests are great but I care about capacity
I order one already wish I could use your code brother good review always next time
Looks like they are heading in the right direction. Just need a few adjustments

Totally agree, if you are looking for RV hookup the elite 200 is not going to be the solution for you.

So how big was the AC and how long did it run the AC? Looking for something to power my off grid 450 sq ft.
The ac output can be up to 2600w continuous and I got 97% use of the 2073wh capacity
Thank you again for this and all of your videos. Very informative

I tested that twice. Worked just fine
Been asking reviewers what Solar setup/array can I use to reach close to the 1000 watt input capability and still be within the volt/ amp ceiling? Thanks
Great question. I only have 800w and I use two of these. amzn.to/41qRdxs
Thanks! Do you know the volts and amps of these? Don’t see it listed anywhere. Seems like you really have to dig to find the specs.
