- The perfect size POWER BANK? In a world where more is always more. I explain why the 716wh eb70 could be the perfect offered companion.

I've got one (EB70) and 120w folding pannels. Great unit and am able to cook on induction (vango sizzle) and used a travel kettle. Bright summer days the solar is able to keep up with discharge.
Excellent. Plucky little thing huh
You are 100% right that the ability to camp based on the need for one single electrical item can be make or break. I've just bought a similar power bank (coughecoflowdelta2cough) for my mobility scooter and it is GAME CHANGING. No more being restricted to campsites with EHU! Admittedly there will still be weather related limitations in terms of recharging the station, but it will comfortably give me a weekend away without needing to be recharged. Absolutely amazing, I love how this technology is improving life for people in ways the makers probably didn't even consider when they designed these units.
This is a great comment. You use one for mobility scooter. Fantastic.
Stay safe
@@urbanarkoverland honestly, it's fantastic.
For those interested, A 1000w unit gives me about 10 miles on the scooter. That's two days of dog walks. And in full sun the solar panel will recharge it at a bit more than the 200w (ish) draw of the scooter charger. So with the through charging these units have, that's basically 4 hours to recharge both unit and scooter at the same time. Amazing technology that just wasn't around when I started van camping with a mobility scooter over a decade ago. I love it!
@@beepythevellfire awesome 👍🏻
Is delta 2 for £600 a good price? I'm looking for one in the UK but don't have a clue on what a good price is
1 EB70 and 1 EB3A has met all my needs camping for several years now
@@Liimpy 👍🏻
I got one for £512 and it's great for running my fridge
Sweet 👍🏻
Great bit of kit
@@kevinlorryman781 👍🏻
Anker do a great One been a few complaints about those bluetti units cutting off when running a mini fridge few vids On utube about it
Oh really. Thats unfortunate. 👍🏻
Yes, I have the same problem with the EB70s and running one of my mini fridges.
I am going to match a soft start module and get it run.
Otherwise, it is a very good kit and keeps my drones and dc fridge powered.
You can disable the auto shutoff thru the app
Hi....one problem i found with this and an oukitel p2001 is that when the ac inverter is on and simultaneously i use the usb for smartphone charging ,the phone is affected going crazy opening and closing apps and other phenomena like screen being pressed etc. so beware of your phone being charged simultaneously with tha ac inverter being on for some weird electromagnetic interference
Ye that is odd 😳
Nice one , you going to campervan campout
Hi mate. No. Vanlife fest next for me.
These are dropping in price which is good for us, is there away to connect a fuse board to it like the bigger model has the RV cable, if so this would be my choice over a full install and then just add a solar panel to the van to charge it? Thanks
Unfortunately no. 👍🏻
Oldest baby ever! Jk. Great video thanks for the review mate.
Nice one 👍🏻
Ha ha. Made 10 takes of that snippet. And he was 6 years old in every one.
We are building a campervan at the moment, Peugeot Boxer L3H2. Almost ready now but we have been making some test trips.
When planning the 12 / 230V system last year I decided a EB70 could do the job for us and I saved lot's of money this way.
Although I did buy a 1500 Watt inverter and lots of other needed items I changed plans and sold all.
We have allmost all running on 12V. A 12V Mestic compressor coolerbox is consuming the most. But at 11 Watt average use per hour @ 25C we still could be 48 hours off grid. Some 3 watt led lights, a 12V waterpump and phone charging is about all. For longer trips we do have a small bread baking machine that takes around 285 Watt for baking 1 bread. Also a small electric kettle and a coffee maker. But that is for luxury as we have a small gas stove also. Not to forget a rocketstove for the real outdoor experience... 😉
For us the versatile ways to charge the EB70 is indeed a big plus. We have 230 hookup and I build in a 230 > 24 Volt Meanwell transformer in the van as charger for the EB70. Also a 100 Watt portable solar panel. In combination with charging from the sigaret lighter in the console I think you can not go wrong.
We also bought a 50 Ah Eco-Worty LifePO4 battery that can be charged from 230 with a charger. That could also be used to extend the use of the EB70. Both by charging it or by taking over the 12V part in the van. The sigaret plug lead of the 12V leisure system can be switched from EB70 to battery and back. That is also used when charging the EB70 with the solar panel. The van can be in the shade, we take the EB70 out and set up the panel in the sun.
This way we have a system with which I can be off grid for about 4 days, even without sun or charging while driving. EB70 and the battery weigh about 15 kilos. And everything is lightweight and can be taken out of the van when needed for some other use. 😀
Well it seems you have a system that suits your needs just right.
That’s the key. Everybody’s needs are different 👍🏻
👍👍🤙🤙
💪🏻
Stay far away from Bluetti. Their customer service is terrible and they don't honor the warranty. I've already had the full experience... Buy something else!
@@foreverrving3281 like a Clayton
Mine died after 5 minutes use. Customet care number came up as invalid. Many e mails later got refunded. Only 2 year warranty anker is 5 yrs.
@@VickiEnglish-z3b the small ones don’t usually suffer with problems.
👍 Good video again! Sounds like a good bit of kit, I've got a garage that I'm turning into a mancave, will probably get one of the larger ones as my garage has no electricity, and just charge it up from my T6 California, as I'm living in it most of the time, as i sold my flat! I wonder how long one of the larger one's would last, for use of basic lighting, small TV, PlayStation 5.
I haven't really got any idea about portable electrical batteries, any ideas?
Literally calculate the watts Nate. And minus it off if the watt hours the unit has 👍🏻
"How old was that baby?" Took me out lol
@@lex6463 ha ha.
Been camping most years now for 30+. Never once needed a power bank. If the other half needed one special item I’d get a new other half..
And for that price🤯
Ok must admit the usbc in the T6 is handy 😮
Great videos
I know £600 is a lot. But a lithium battery alone is that. Had someone comment and say that power banks has opened a new world for them. As they have a mobility scooter 👍🏻
Great video as always glad I bought my Bluetti 200 max been running my Penpod love having the ability to run an air fryer for my dinner
200 is a beast. 👍🏻👍🏻
What size do you recommend for one as my only system of power in my T6. I also have Avano fitted 👍
Hit me in on insta 👍🏻
I’d be interested in your opinion on this , not really wanting a leisure battery set up , got a T6 Kombi and prob want to charge phones and maybe run a 12 v Tv at night what’s your recommendation.? Cheers
Would they charge an E bike?
I could kick myself ya. I filmed it. But cut it out as it messed with the flow ha.
Yeah it charges mine. But I guess it depends on the watts needed. My one charges at less that 400watts. That’s where that little white tester comes into it 👍🏻
Great video very cool little product
Cheers mate.
Will it power a microwave?
Probably just. Perhaps a 750/800
What do you think about the EB3A?
Not testing it to be fair.
Eb3a is my favorite small generator. However, it's failed after about 2.5 years as my stand-alone power supply for my 12v fridge connected to a single 100w panel, cheap enough to just replace it
Nice how much is one
£699 at mo I think.
Minus £80 voucher 👍🏻
Can you charge this with a gas powered generator?
Of course. The unit doesn’t know the difference.
Can it be used while its charging ?
Yes
Mine's 1000W
Cool
