- In this video we attempt to break the Bluetti AC70 to really explore it's capabilities.
Is this portable power station just a glorified power bank or is it a decent battery with a decent inverter all in one rugged case?
What is it for? Who is it for? Should you buy one?

I have the Jackery Explorer Pro 1000 Pro as a UPS to back up the Givenergy AIO, runs a home server and all my Unifi Kit did look at the Bluetti but its UPS was slower than I needed, Jackery switches over in ≤ 13 ms compared to the Bluetti's ≤ 20.ms , over the top I know but cant have the server going down.
Those ptc based heaters are not usually 2kw even though they say they are.
The portable all power 2000w upgraded model, we used at our allotment to power angle grinder and reciprocating saw when we were doing work for around 30-40 minutes and it went from 100 percent to 96 percent, they are definitely better than a generator and we didn't have the solar panel plugged in no doubt we could use it for days without running it flat
hope this channel doesn’t turn into a bunch of adverts
Sorry. I have been overwhelmed by product samples being offered to me.
I have only accepted product samples that will benefit both me and those watching my channel.
I will never review more than 1 item per month as an absolute maximum.
It is not the focus of the channel and I hope it doesn't distract from the other content too much.
@@UpsideDownFork good to hear! I appreciate the reply
I obtained a Bluetti AC70 and was counting on its Power Lifting claim to run my Ninja Foodie Digital Air Fry Oven (Model FT205CCO) on Camping trips.
Sadly the AC70 did not power the Oven properly at all.
While in Power Lifting mode (claimed to handle 2000 Watt Loads); the Bluetti turned on the Oven .... but nothing got cooked. :((
I used a Kill-a-Watt meter to monitor the power while on House juice, and the Oven used cycled up to 1560 Watts. while cooking stuff.
Connected to the Bluetti AC70 the Oven failed to cook anything; and the power reading didn't get much above 900 watts.
Any ideas guys ???
The Bluetti must seriously drop the voltage; and attempt to create an illusion of powering a 2000 Watt device.
Sorry to hear that. Does the air fryer have any lower power settings?
I believe the AC70 lowers the amperage whilst maintaining the voltage to allow some devices to work. Different appliances will have different electronics which may not allow this.
Our microwave did struggle with the AC70 but worked fine on our other power station which you can see here th-cam.com/video/5yV3zpklbiY/w-d-xo.html
Your review is really good, your cooking skill are a crime
@@locotequila 😂 thanks!
Does it surge to 2000watts when the lifting mode is on or off?
@@jampam-jf8mt when it's on 👍
I think you should have a look at integrating a Frogstar 15Kwh
That's still on the table!
Awesome review/ torture test! I think I will be adding this to my camping kit.
I am using it this very night in the middle of nowhere!
Still impressed with it.
We also loaned it to a neighbour during a day they were having electrical work and it ran their fridge freezer for the day.
@UpsideDownFork Already ordered mine and it was on sale! Thanks for putting out this informative review. It really put the Bluetti on my radar lol and the sale price sealed the deal 👍👍👍
Good morning early start
I like the design of the stackable battery quite a few other providers offer the same sort of products, but it's quite expensive in comparison to an all in one and the fogstar battery lol.
True!
I'm sorry, but I live in the Bahamas...I don't know or can not imagine 25 degree weather..lol
Ouch! Too hot for me!
Are you planning to to see what size a portable solar panel would be best or quickest to charge the unit ?
I will be getting a folding solar panel to take with us when we go camping for a week in summer.
@@UpsideDownFork hoping we actually get a summer, personally this has been the weirdest winter I’ve ever seen = keeping in mind I was born so long ago that rainbows were only in black and white.
@@KavanOBrien 🤣
Personally, I wouldn’t have a lithium battery that size in my house due to potential fire risk.
LiPo isn't a fire risk.
I'll do a separate video about this as I have quite the rant to share when people talk about fire hazards...whilst burning gas at a hob or a gas boiler...
I've heard that the ac70 has a dangerous wiring problem. Reverse polarity I think they called it.
