Recharging with solar
The Bluetti Elite 100 V2 accepts up to 1000W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 3.8 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.
Solar can keep up. A hair dryer uses about 270Wh a day at 0.15 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the Bluetti Elite 100 V2 can run it indefinitely.
Tips
- Hair dryers draw up to 1,800W on high. The low or cool setting cuts that by half or more.
- The Bluetti Elite 100 V2 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
