The BLUETTI B500 Adds 4,960Wh of LiFePO4 Storage to Your EP800 or EP900 Home Energy System

The BLUETTI B500 Expansion Battery is the battery pack for the BLUETTI EP800 and EP900 energy storage systems. Each B500 stores 4,960Wh, and BLUETTI estimates each battery adds about one day of home backup at typical essential-load use. Connect two to four B500 packs per system for 9,920Wh to 19,840Wh of storage.

The B500 is built for permanent home installation, indoors or outdoors. It carries a NEMA 4X and IP65 rating, runs nearly silently at under 25 dB, heats itself in cold weather and is backed by a 10-year warranty.

BLUETTI B500 Expansion Battery Compatibility


BLUETTI B500 Features

4,960Wh Per Battery

Each B500 adds 4,960Wh of usable capacity at 90% depth of discharge, so you can size your system to your essential loads and add batteries as your needs grow.

LiFePO4 Chemistry

Lithium iron phosphate cells offer long life, thermal stability and safe operation for daily cycling and backup use.

Self-Heating in Cold Weather

A built-in self-heating feature keeps the system starting and running in chilly conditions. With the inverter connected to the grid, the B500 can charge down to -4°F.

Indoor or Outdoor Installation

NEMA 4X and IP65 protection against water and dust lets you mount the B500 on a floor or wall, inside or outside your home.

Quiet Operation

At under 25 dB, the B500 can be installed near living areas without noticeable noise.

Certified for Home Energy Storage

The B500 is certified to UL1973 and UL9540A, along with CB, CE, FCC, ICES, PSE, RCM, UKCA and UN38.3.


Real-World Applications

Whole-home or essential-load backup. Extend how long your EP800 or EP900 can power your home during outages.

Solar self-consumption. Store more solar energy to use at night and reduce grid purchases.

Time-of-use savings. Store low-cost energy and use it during peak-rate hours.


How It Compares to Common Alternatives

Versus portable expansion batteries. The B500 is designed for fixed EP800 and EP900 systems, with outdoor-rated enclosures and permanent mounting.

Versus generators. Stored battery power switches on automatically and silently, with no fuel or maintenance.


Is the B500 the Right Fit

  • Compatibility. The B500 works only with the BLUETTI EP800 and EP900. It does not work with other BLUETTI batteries or third-party inverters, and cannot connect directly to your main panel.
  • System size. EP800 and EP900 systems use two to four B500 packs.
  • Installation. The system must be installed and grounded by a licensed electrician. BLUETTI recommends a sub panel for essential loads.
  • Weight. Each B500 weighs 127.87 lbs.

This may be a good fit if

  • You own or are installing an EP800 or EP900
  • You want more days of home backup
  • You need a battery rated for outdoor installation

Common Questions

How Many B500 Batteries Can I Connect?

Up to four per EP800 or EP900, for a maximum of 19,840Wh.

Will the System Switch On Automatically in an Outage?

Yes. When the grid fails, the system powers your backup loads without interruption, and grid loads resume automatically when power returns.

Can It Charge and Discharge at the Same Time?

Yes. With an EP800 or EP900, it supports pass-through charging.

Why Does BLUETTI Recommend a Sub Panel?

A sub panel for essential loads makes troubleshooting and maintenance easier. Its manual switch lets you move loads to the grid side if the storage system ever needs service.

How Do I Know How Many Batteries I Need?

Add up the daily energy use of the loads you want to back up. BLUETTI estimates one B500 covers about one day at typical essential-load use, and our team can help you size a system around your appliances and outage needs.
