    Yes, P150D to P090D is required, you may order it separately in BLUETTI Store.

    Q10: What is the difference between B300S and B300?

    1) Current capacity: 130A for B300S while 75A for B300.
    2) ONLY B300S features the automatic heating function.
    3) Solar input: 500W for B300S while 200W for B300.

    Q11: How does the heating function work?

    When the temperature is below 0℃, the battery will be automatically heated once AC or PV charging is activated (input power>400W).

    Q12: Is AC500 compatible with AC300's fusion box?

    Yes.

    Q13: How to connect AC500 to the main panel?

    Low Voltage Area: Match the transfer switch and smart home panel to the main panel.
    High Voltage Area: Match the transfer switch to the main power box.

    Q14: Can fusion box connect with AC500 and AC300 simultaneously?

    Not recommended.

    Q15: What is the maximum power of AC500 when using the fusion box?

    1) 7,200W when connected with P030A

    Q20: Does AC500 support charging and discharging at the same time?

    Yes.

    Q21:How long will AC500 run my device?

    Running time = battery capacity x DoD x η ÷ device rated power DoD: Depth of Discharge, η: local inverter efficiency. For AC500, both DoD and η are 90%. If you run a 1,000W microwave oven with a AC500 + B300S combo, the running time will be 3,072Wh × 90% × 90% ÷ 1,000W ≈ 2.5 hours
    Note:
    1) This formula doesn't apply to inductive loads with compressors, such as refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.
    2) The above data is for reference ONLY.

    Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m so glad to hear the ACP180 is powering everything you need during those unexpected outages and even doubling as a UPS for your PC—that’s fantastic! It’s great to know it’s giving you peace of mind. If you ever have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out. Thanks again for the awesome feedback!

    Great add-on for my Bluetti AC200Max

    Now, I can recharge faster with this charging enhancer. It allows me to use both solar and AC at the same time resulting in 1,400W instead of just the 900W from solar alone. Also, I can use my regular AC Charger and the Charging Enhancer at the same time on both the main unit as well as the B230 battery. AND, I can use solar on the B230 battery too. Gives me more options to recharge my setup.

    We're thrilled to learn this worked out so well for you. Thank you for your review!

    Good solar panel

    Easy to set up and sturdy carrying case. My only issue: unable to capture more than 300 watts, even in the brightest sunlight.

    Hi Dan,

    Happy to learn that you're quite pleased with the Solar Panel you've purchased. Solar panels are rated for 22%-25% energy conversion efficiencies, rest assured those are good solar production numbers already.

    Best,
