We run our hole van from the same unit plus’s we have just got the extra battery, we got hold of the extra box so we can charge from the van and from the solar at the same time . Just had the day out green laning , we had the coffee machine, kettle and induction hob all running at the same time .
That’s good to know it works well and some one has real world tested it out.
@@Bugoutvehiclesuk it’s a 313 cdi 4x4 low roof shorty 118 if you want to look , we’re in Norfolk
where did you get the extra box so you can charge from the battery and solar at the same time ..?
@@karllongden4011it’s the grey box on the BLUETTI web site dc 500 or something, it’s a must have .
Cheers for quick reply 👍 definitely gettin 200w solar then, as we dont wanna be driving every day, thanks again and keep the interesting vids comming
Nice vid, enjoyed watching, thanks for taking the time to share.
Thanks pal. I know product vids arnt the most exciting but it off sets the fuel on the further away vids.
That was a very well thought out, put together and explanatory video Rich great job and thank you.
Wow so munch info Rich that is such a great power Bank Thanks for Sharing looking forward to more 👍🚐🇮🇪
Glad you enjoyed it
superb content as always Rich that certainly looks like an amazing bit of kit could come in handy for our family trips
They are coming a long way since the first little one I tried a couple of years ago. Thanks for the comment pal
If I ever get the money I'll get the next one up of the Jackery that I have! Nice bit of kit but more than I need. Stay safe Rich atvb 👍🦊
Thanks pal. See you soon.
One word BRILLIANT 👏
Thank you.
Really brilliant video Rich. Thank you!
Thank you very much.
What an awesome bit of kit. Although I love my DIY ford custom campervan, everytime i see your true off grid go anywhere van I do have an envy! What you have done is truly impressive! Atb vee
Fantastic bit of kit, your pop top looks good too. Great entertainment and tuition.
Thank you.
Great video. I bought a £50 500 watt pure sine wave inverter off Amazon and use that to charge my bluetti whilst driving @ 400 watts to get around the 120watt 12 volt limit. The inverter is wired through a £35 victron 120a relay so it can only work whilst the van is running. Works a treat.
It’s great they’ve added the 30 amp 12 volt output, I think I’ll be upgrading to what you have. 😀
Thanks Rich, good review. We bought our 2000W Bluetti Power Bank and solar array based on your review. Just delivered today so will charge it tonight. We will use it to support our house battery on our caravan and also on our boat. The latter because we go offgrid quite often.
I like your reviews for equipment and events. When you do the event reviews, maybe you could touch on the available facilities, access etc to inspire attendance at the next year event.
I bet that could run my beer machine at the Patreon meet 🤔🤔🤔🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
That would be cool
Some great stats there mate, looks a great bit of kit
Thank you.
Quite Impressed with the bluetti, I got the EB70 a little while back which I believe equates to about 60ah (equivalent to a 120ah AGM or lead acid) and it will run a fridge for atleast a few days and runs the diesel night heater too as the 12v output can handle 10a which is handy 👍
How about running a lead out from the 240 to your van EHU and then use the vans 240 sockets
Looks like a great bit of kit. Just spent 10 days off grid and the only thing that pestered me was keeping charge to the fridge. Only ran the Landy dead once!!!! I’ll have a look at this unit. Cheers lad.
I get you on that one. I always obsess about the fridge and I still can’t go to sleep with it on because it will be using power while I’m asleep 😂
Just bought one in the Black Friday sales, the 10a output on my Ecoflow delta max just wasn’t enough, as you say that 30a aviation plug is a game changer.
I think that’s it’s main thing that it has over all the others
@@Bugoutvehiclesuk I agree, I also like all the outputs being on the front, but that 30a socket is its big selling point.
It's the logical way for builds to go.
By the time you add up the individual ("Blue"?) Units, cabling, time, or the cost of a "professional" install you could (probably) have a bank on either side, or front/ back of the van, and working within a few hours.
Even if you used a small unit for the second one, you've got redundancy.
It’s a hard one because I love the way my other camper sits there and re charges silly fast but it was way more than this set up and I have no inverter on the Landy so no 240v. It’s all a trade off I suppose.
Nooo! You can’t cut off an Anderson connector! I seem to have a fetish for them. The little ones are good for 30A. Of course the sensible thing to do would be to cut the connector off and wire directly to the fuse box and eliminate any voltage drop from the connector.
Fair point. I wanted to keep as much lead as possible until I figure out where it’s going to sit.
good vid
Thank you.
There is a good reason I don't comment negatively on your electrickery antics...
It is because I know sweet fanny adams about the stuff.
So I will probably need watch this a few dozen times to get even a sub-basic grasp of it.
Hope you're well, stay well , and give my best to Stu' ...
I only know because I geek out over off grid power 😂 all good at this end mate and I hope you are alright
Thats a beast. I was hoping for demonstration with your hairdryer 😊
I can finally pack the beard straightener
Works well mate, been running my van the same way since March 👍 my fuse panel is the Auxbeam 8 gang
P.S, when was the last time you used an hair dryer 😂😉😉
Can also run from an inverter from your van battery with your power brick plugged in while driving as the car charger is pants
Ay Iv got a beard straightener 😂😂😂
@@Bugoutvehiclesuk😂
An ok review. But you missed a couple of things. The 12v cig socket is useless as it only draws max 100w into the unit. That will take 8+ hours to charge. No one wants to drive that long. Bin it. Buy the Bluetti DO 50S charging enhancer. Now this goes into your car / van 12v cig socket (there is another way from your battery. But let's do the easy way just now) and plugs into the unit where you charge from the home 240v AC. Now you have about 250w to max 500w charging your unit up while your driving. PLUS.... you can both charge max 900w of solar AND AC or DC charge while you're driving at the same time giving you a max input charge of around 1400w +/-
I think best bet is for you to make your own video because it’s not like I’m going to run out and re film it 😂
@@Bugoutvehiclesuk Wow. Very touchy.!!!! No one said to go out and re-film anything (you need a chil pill man). You can do a follow-up video with updated info. Another thing that you can do to the 200 Max is that you can also charge it up from car EV stations when there is no sun for solar. You just need an extension for about £100 or so. Plug in and charge.
Oi get my hoodie off 😉I forgot to steal thar the other day!
😂
Hey BOV ,just came across your Bluetti video, good down to earth watch. Ive bought same Bluetti to use, but also to go with when driving a victron dc/dc converter orion 1224-20A just pickin ya brain really, would you say to still bother with a solar panel? Cheers Steve payne 👍
Personal preference. I like to plot up for a few days so I like solar to take the edge off what I’m using but it’s not an issue if you are moving location each day and charging back up by running the engine.
One thing struck me when you spoke about crimping those cables, it’s your vehicle so you do it your way. To be honest if your way works and is safe then it’s not a wrong way, just a different way to what some people may do.
I’m rapidly coming round to your way of thinking about these power banks is the costs against costs of all the separate parts. I think for me the perfect setup would be one of those power banks as well as a smaller AGM and a B2B. Then use some Anderson Power Pole connectors to switch around supplies.
Your van is coming along nicely mate.
Not a bad shout but I’d stick with the lithium batts now Iv had them. The charge rate is insane
Hi guys we have a autosleeper Warwick, it has a Sargent electrical system to which I have no access. I was wondering, could I connect the RV 30 amp lead to the leasure battery to power the van
I charge my Ecoflow off solar, my alternator puts next to nothing into it.
Cracking video, are you loosing weight Rich?
It bounces up and down a lot mate. I lost 2 stone a few month back and put it back on but Iv now weighed my self for weeks. Might just be the new hoodie tho 😂
Smart looking hoodie mate, yeah just looks like you've shed a bit that's all still a unit.
👍🏼🚐
