Bluetti AC200 & AC50S

I am still waiting on accessory cords for the AC200. Is it just me? I got the AC200 and the standard cords, but not the extra aviation plug and battery clamps, etc.
My lot just came up and I received my panels & AC200. Got an email about my car battery adapter shipping. Still no word on 2nd power supply. I love my AC200. Has anyone looked into setting up a battery expansion for the AC200?

I would just like to remind you all these are made by http://www.poweroak.solar/ and you can buy them in lots of 10 wholesale direct. "Bluetti" is a brand name that gets stuck on the side by an importer.

Thanks for the info. Didn't find any pricing on that website. Regardless, I'm having enough trouble buying them in lots of 1. Juss sayin! :cool:
 
What is the $16 perk used for? I got it, but I don't know what I can do with it.

Aviation Plug? Dunno....maybe you use it to jump start a Boeing 767? ?;)

Serious though...this might answer your question starting at 24:24.

Oh yes that’s it! Thank you! I’m sure I watched that vid awhile back but forgot that part of it.

So, does anyone have any idea how to hard wire an Anderson or XT60 to the fuse box in a travel trailer? I know where the fuse panel is, and I could drill a little hole and put a grommet on it with a little connector sticking out, or maybe something prettier.
 
What do you guys think about this- pulling travel trailer, 7 pin plug is keeping the batteries charged, turning on inverter and plugging portable power station (AC200, etc) in to charge in trailer while driving down the road. Anything wrong or weird about that?
Yes. I'm wondering the same thing. I have a AC50S to power our Dometic cfx in the TT. I don't think 7 way power will be enough but i plan to run a 14ga or 12ga wire from the battery direct to a inverter Bestek probably. The AGM TT battery has 2 100w panels (or maybe 1) roof mounted to keep parity with the AGM power consumed... that may work. My thought is no 12vdc cig or TT hook has enough volts delivered to keep up with charging, but i may be wrong....
 
So I received my AC200P a few days ago, and I’m running into an issue with the AC inverter displaying weird stuff. I plugged in my DC fridge into the AC port, and it’s displaying around 2x the wattage it’s consuming according to the Killowatt meter.

Plugged into AC:
  • When the fridge is idle the display flashes between 0W and 35W (vs 0.3W on the Killowatt)
  • When the compressor kicks on, the display shows 95W+ (vs 40-50W on the Killowatt)
Plugged into DC, the fridge with the compressor on shows 60W max

I plugged in the same device to another 300W power station and the readings on that were accurate and in-line with the Killowatt.

Any idea what’s going on?

Hi awesome people! I just signed up here because I am on a mission! Bluetti changed their AC adapter for the ac200 from 400 watts to 500 watts... now it’s not compatible with the eb240 anymore. Anyone have a 400 watt ac200 adapter they would be willing to sell? Thanks :)
