Just keep in mind that full refund does not equal free returns. I don't know about the others, but Bluetti will accept returns, but you will need to ship it back to them on your dime.
Who will bear the round-trip shipping cost?

They will ship to you for free as advertised. They will refund the full purchase price if returned within the 30 days as advertised. However, you will pay to ship the product back to them if you want to return it for a refund.

I can just plug a solar panel into this thing and it's just... free power? I thought lots of electronics were required. Seems too good to be true.
It'll be "free power" after you consume enough electricity to offset the cost of the power station and the solar panel, which will take many, many charge cycles. I'm sure someone here can do the math.

$550 after tax for this thing and 200w of solar panels.

Let's assume:

- your solar panel can charge this thing to full every day (200w panels can reasonably do this on many days of the year, but not every day)
- you get one full charge and discharge out of this every day (1 kWh)
- and that electricity costs you 30 cents/kWh.
- You therefore "save" 30 cents/day running this thing on solar

Break even in 1833 days, or 5 years. Guarantee you won't go through the inconvenience of solar charging this and running it to your load to save 30 cents a day.

Hardly "free power", and to the guy thinking you need a ton of electronics for solar - what do you think you're buying with this power station? Wink

Still, this is a great deal for someone needing something like this. The question is, do you actually need it? It'll be just a toy for most people, used maybe 2-3 times a year for camping, or running your electronics when the power goes out. If your power tends to go out for more than 24 hours at a time, perhaps you need this to keep your stuff frozen. Or maybe you need an oversized uninterruptible power supply. I dunno.

The math is a little different because the inverter is like 85% efficient and you can only discharge around 90% of total capacity. Making breakeven longer.

Quote from golfreak :
I have every size power station you can imagine but I was intrigue by the Pecro E1000 because its highly portable and it can do a full 20a on the solar input even at 12v.
I like to carry a PS around that can run everything(1500w+) but small capacity because I can bring a 12v battery if I need the extra capacity which is why the high transfer rate is important.
The Pecron E1000lfp has been my top 1500w+/1000wh highly portable power station because of this but I think this Bluetti 100 V2 is the new king at this price of $379.
This is an introductory price as it will ship end of July and the normal price is $599 I think.
I think Bluetti has a function in the app where to can get the full 20a at 12v. I thin HoboTech got around 230w.
If I can verify that it can do 230w on 12v, I will get one. Was going to get the Pecron E1000 but I hate their support.
I think Bluetti has the edge right now with their introductory price.

Both the Pecron E1000lfp and the Bluetti 100 V2 can be bought for $379 right now.
The Pecron has these advantages.
- $379 TOTAL no taxes on Pecron site. Bluetti will be ~$410.
- Solar port can be charged at 20a. 12v battery will charge the unit ~265w. The 100v2 might allow 20a at 12v. Need confirmation.
- Has expandable port.

[snip]

I am trying to understand the statements in bold about 12V. Are you saying the Pecron can be "expanded" by just connecting an additional 12V battery to solar inputs? And the Bluetti might be able to as well? If not how are you thinking you can bring a 12v battery along to expand power?

Thanks

I am intending to add at least 2-4KWH of battery(ies) via solar input port with xt60 cable so that I can increase the KWH/backup time. If you look at the solar input port of this Bluetti it says 12-60V, 1000W max. So you can wire 12-60V battery (or multiple batteries in parallel or series) and plug to this port. You will need to hook up a separate charger to keep these external batteries charged because this Bluetti won't output power to this solar port (it's only for inputing power).

I thought this is the best deal so far for a simple backup for important 120V devices like fridge, Internet modem/router, sump pump or a small portable heater/inverter AC. Just needs a few more KWH of batteries which I plan to do via solar input port.
Sadly every time I get more power backup wife gives me the dirty eyes not understanding this is insurance against spoiled food, no Internet or flood basement.

That is correct.
Pretty much all power station can be expanded by just connecting a 12v-48v battery to the solar port.
The main problem with connecting a 12v is the input rate is very low. Usually under 100w.
Most of this is because if they allow the full 20 amps, it should blow the car socket fuse.
If you connect a 24v or 48v, you wouldn't have the same problem.
Pecron has a switch 8a/20a. When you have it on 20a, you get around 265w for a 12v battery vs under 100w.
This Bluetti has an option too in its app. I'm still trying to confirm if it does allow more than 100w on 12v.

Yeah for anybody that thinks you can break even with the initial cost/free power, its not gonna work.
You buy this for anytime you need electricity and there's not an outlet around because this is highly portable and at 1800w, it can run just about everything.
And of course super helpful when the power goes down.

Quote from Acina :
The only reason I would not buy this is, in the review, it could not handle a 5000 btu air conditioner.
I have the Bluetti AC180, which matches or is inferior to this Elite in many measures. The AC180 is rated for the same output and effectively the same capacity, And I was able to run my 12,000 btu window A/C from it no problem. (Granted, only for 55 minutes or so). I don't see why a 5000 btu A/C (which should only pull around a peak of 575 watts once running) would have any issues, unless it had a bad capacitor or some particularly poorly-designed electronics.

Jackery products purchased on Amazon can be returned within 30 days of purchase for a full refund, if the item is in new and unused condition. For returns due to defects, damage, or delayed shipping, Jackery will cover the return shipping costs. If the return is for other reasons, return shipping fees will be deducted from the refund.

EcoFlow products purchased on Amazon can be returned within 30 days of delivery, provided they are in original condition and packaging.

The thing is, if I purchase now and get it 30 days later then I can't return even before using it. Can you confirm if the 30 days starts on the day you purchase or on the day of delivery?

It will be shipped after 30 days.. How is the return going to work if it will be past 30 days before we even use it? Is there an exemption of this? Will the 30 day countdown starts after the checkout or after it has been delivered?
