Yah but the fire risk is probably more important and doesn't seem nearly as talked about. LiPo has way less of a fire risk.

One difference is the battery type, Lithium-ion on the river pro, so only like 800 charges. Vs LiFePO4 and over 2000 charges.

because people are idiots. You are absolutely right, these should be called Power Stations. Yes, you can attach a solar panel to it, but it still does not 'generate' the power but simply stores it.

I think the only reason it's considered "fair" by most people is these do have a solar charge controller built into them, which does make them a lot more plug and play.

Yes, you can charge any power station with this as long as you get the correct adapter. The bluetti looks like it comes with the adapter already.

They were separate thoughts. "I would try to go to costco to get a good deal new but they don't seem to know what's going on" and "I see they sell refurbs (ebay) directly, maybe i'll go that route"

Thanks for the clarification. I bought a ac200p refurb from their ebay store in July and the unit looked new. There were some scuffs in the charging brick but I was very happy for the price.

yes, that panel will charge these since it falls within the proper voltage and amp range. Nothing else would be needed since the unit comes with the proper MC4 to 7909 adapter
