Noise: The fans on this device are incredibly quiet in my testing, at times it was hard to tell when they were even running!
Inverter: The inverter is strong (supporting up to 2400 watts) and can easily run almost anything.
Built in charger and UPS support: I love not having an external charging brick and having the ability to control the charge speed with the app. it can charge super fast in a pinch. Also, since the charger is built in, this unit now supports UPS mode!
Screen: I like how the new screen can be easily seen across the room. While you can't easily adjust other settings, this has been fine for me since I can control it all via the app.
Wifi and bluetooth app support: You can finally control this away from home! Anywhere you have internet!
Supports additional expansion batteries: while I dont use this today, I can easily add a B300 in the future!
This is a great all around power station if it fits your budget.
This is a beast of a unit at a killer price point right now and paired with the pv200, this is a fantastic package to dive into solar!!
This unit has come in handy in a lot more use cases then I originally expected it would, is much more efficient then its predecessor the AC200Max and has enhanced options that have truly raised the bar. All this, while actually making the unit quieter. Love it.

I didn't jump on the deal but read through it to see what happened and am appalled by the company's behavior.
Tldr: they made a price mistake on eBay then harassed buyers into cancelling their order. When buyers didn't, they sent them a coffee mug to fulfill the tracking requirement. When buyers started opening disputes, their answer was that the item was delivered and if they were not satisfied, they'd have to go through the process of returning the item (not clear if it's at the buyer's cost or not). At the very least, the buyer is inconvenienced with having to go drop this off at USPS, FedEx or UPS which may not be nearby.
Until they get their coffee mug back, the refund is held and the buyer is out of pocket for who knows how long. There's also no guarantee they won't continue to play games and say to ebay "the buyer returned a coffee mug not power station sorry no refund."
I have no personal experience with Bluetti but will steer clear based off the feedback in that thread alone. If that's the way they handle price mistakes, I don't want to imagine how they handle customer support and warranty services.

And yes, I know the irony is that I'm a 10 feedback score poster myself. I've been using the site for 20 years but mainly lurking since I haven't had much to contribute. I think I only joined as an actual number because of a Sears Rewards thread in the early 2010s if I recall. Just seeing that eBay thread was upsetting. Backup solutions are in demand right now especially in my region and I felt like this company is just preying on those people looking for an affordable, reliable solution with their fake reviews and posts.
But that's just like uh, my opinion, man 😀
