Recharging with solar

The Bluetti AC180 accepts up to 500W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 1.9 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.

Tips

  • iPads and Android tablets hold 25–40Wh.
  • Running it from the Bluetti AC180’s DC port instead of the AC outlet avoids inverter losses: about 81Wh more usable energy.
  • The Bluetti AC180 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
