I agree an MPPT input alongside the battery and auto switching or solar priority then use alternator for remainder would be super elegant. Maybe there will be another version in the future with that. I have seen specifications on the Etaker but have not had a chance to use one yet.
You seem to know alot about the AC180, I was thinking of adding the Pecron EB3000 stand alone battery to charge my AC180, I wonder if it would be efficient to use it to charge my AC180 dc to dc. I have two renogy 200watt 12v panels. THE EB3000 has mppt charger built in, so I would just move the panels to the EB3000. adding 3000WH for just over 800 dollars. it has been very hard to get much solar input to the AC180. currently in series the 2- 200 watt panels only show around 250 watts going in to the AC180. With the EB3000 it looks like I could get 360. Watts going into it. and have the added capacity.
That is an interesting battery and a great deal for 3kWh. How are you figuring to get 350W into the AC180 from it? The battery has only 12V outputs and the AC180 will take 8A at 12V. Charger1 on the 12V30A output?
@@alx4571 Sigh. You're missing the point entirely. Teslas are BEVs (I drive the Model Y). They have no alternator that provides the 560 watts!! Therefore as I said, you're only option is the 12v which gives around 100 watts. It's simply NOT POSSIBLE to get any more from any BEV as there is no engine or alternator to provide any more. Hope this helps you understand. 😄
Thanks for testing the custom mode, that is what i was interested in.
Glad to help. There will probably be a second video on this soon.
Great overview - Thanks for showing it charging up so many different devices!
Glad it was helpful!
thanks a lot , very helpful explained
Glad it was helpful!
Nice unit, pitty it doesn't have dual inputs. One for vehicle and one for solar. Have you tried the Etaker 1000?

How can this be installed in a Tesla ?
You would have to put it across the 12V accessory battery. I'm not sure how strong the 12V downconverter is or if it could support the load.
There would be zero point. Teslas don't have an alternator. Just plug your Bluetti into the 12v.
@@chrisyates399the whole point is to charge at 560 watts and recharge driving in about an hour. 12V is still very slow. Slower than solar
