Can someone explain how to connect my AC 200 Max to my RV DC system? How can I run my DC system without the rv charge converter? With the converter it use 325 watts with nothing else running and the Bluetti goes dead a few hours?

What I want to do is use the Bluetti in place of the rv batteries.So @BossHawk if you provide more or detailed information we can be of more assistance.
AIO units can be a great solution for some RVs, but like any choice there are Pros & Cons. Maybe these AIOs are made better now, but a major “Con” IMO is 12vdc charge rate.
Has that now changed ?
We would need to know what your RV DC system is ?
One solution could be, RV DC to 120vac to AC 200 Max
I agree that these types of units aren't really ideal for hardwiring into an RV or Cabin to pull big DC loads, but most 12VDC loads aren't big.This type of unit is intended for 10 - 20 amps of 12 volt DC (total output)
... not really for powering significant 12 volt DC loads.

(obviously if you count running an inverter off of DC then that's a huge load, but in this case that doesn't count because you would just use the inverter of the power station)
And the AC200Max has a [/b]30 Amp[/b] 12v output, btw.
I power my whole cabins lights, radio and all USB devices charging off of that one "aviation" output.
Fair enough, I hadn't really thought that.The RVs can hit 50 amps of real 12 volt loads very fast.
Fair enough, I hadn't really thought that.
I guess people don't really want to be conscious about power usage when they're trying to be on vacation and relax, they just want to hit a button and have things work.
So with a Bluetti (at least the 200 series) they will likely need to be a little bit more energy conscious.
Or just know enough in advance/ have the wherewithal to run any large loads off of AC instead.
