I used it in my camper van for a year and a half. The charging input port failed. I charged with portable solar panels and the car charger while driving. The charging input barrel connector wore out from frequent plugging and unplugging rendering the unit useless. Electricity began to arc from the input line to the unit as the the connection points wore down. Eventually the charge input jack was burned to ash.

Sorry to hear that. Did you reach out to Bluetti for warranty?

I'm now mind blown as to the recharge times stated by you and others doing reviews. I'm sure I'll still be very happy with the product (just purchased) but the advertised charge times on amazon are 1 hr for outlet, 3.3 hours for car, and 2 hrs for the 200W panel. I don't mind a bit of discrepancy but geeze, that's a huge difference.

You should check out the Anker SOLIX stations. Some of them will do full recharge in just under an hour

Nice video. I have a Bluetti EB 70S as well as the 200 W solar panel. Rookie mistake: Plugging USBs into the AC brick instead of the USB ports. You use more power using the inverter to convert the DC to AC back to DC, when you could just plug them straight into the DC USB plugs. I wish my phone would flat charge. Jon in rural BC, Canada

How do you like the solar panel set up?
@JonTanOsb

@@DefiantOffroad It is large and heavy. I expected it to have two blue handles, but there is only one. The four panels fold up and are held in place with a plastic tab on both sides. It doesn't come with multiple ends, like some, but the Bluetti box with charging brick and car charger, comes with the proper connection for the solar panel. I do like that each panel back has an adjustable stand with snaps to hold it in place, very sturdy. I haven't used it to charge my Bluetti yet because I charge it in the house before using and it hasn't needed charging. So far, I've only used it to charge my phone and USB lights, but hope to use it to run my camping fridge/freezer next summer, and will use the panels then, if vehicle charging isn't enough.

Do you mind expliingint to me what you mean by using the DC plug directly? Which ones are the DC plugs vs AC? I am new to generators and purchasing a set up to get through hurricane black out recovery. I have solar panels that can charge the generators but still need to be smart and efficient in how I drain the generators especially running things at night. What is the best way or best ports on the generator to use for things like a low wattage mini fridge like Iceco? What is the most energy efficient way to use these generators? Thank you!

@@hurricane8813 AC (alternating current) is what you have in a house to plug things into. DC (direct current) is from a battery. You get it from the power box through the USB slots, the barrel plug (cigarette lighter hole) or the small round plugs. If you have an adapter for your phone or other device that plugs into the house outlet and has a USB slot to plug things into, you don't need to use it with your power box. Just unplug the cord from the brick and plug it straight into the USB slot in your power box. Hope that helps. Jon in rural BC, Canada

@@JonTanOsb Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! So basically when using my Jackery, anything I can plug directly into the barrel port or USB/s I should always try to use those, versus the prong plug because that plug section always has to convert to AC and that is less efficient? Or, if I have an Ice cooler, and it has both a wall plug and a cigarette car plug, I should plug it in with the cigarettes car plug because it will be more efficient? thank you again!

nice vid mate! Is it possible to charge it with the 200w solar panel and use it at the same time to power stuff? So you would have infinite power on sunny days?
@DefiantOffroad
@DefiantOffroad 5 ай бұрын
I've not done so personally with it, but according to Bluetti the EB70s supports pass-through charging. So, it should work. Thank you for watching and commenting!

I just recently started looking at power stations, and in a fortunate stroke of luck, Bluetti contacted me around the same time. So far, I'm digging it. Hopefully I'l get out this coming week and try it and the fridge out in the mountains!

If it takes this unit 4 hours to charge off a 200w solar panel can I assume it will take 8 hours off a 100w solar panel? (Bear in mid I'm a Chef and know little about electrical stuff.) 😊

🤷 I never tested it with solar. It's a bit dated in terms of specs. The AC70 would be worth checking out.

It probably would, at least temporarily. I ran the fridge in my house off of it for a little while, just because I was looking for more random things to plug into it. 🤣 Bluetti has units that have higher output though, if that's a concern of yours.
