I like this guy he’s not giving me his life story he’s telling me the information I need to know
I like you too 😂
@@urbanarkoverland It’s gonna take me a couple years to save up to get an expansion battery I hope you have a coupon for me then hahahahahha 🙏👍
@@thebuddha4208 see how you get on with just the unit. You may not need more. There is a hell of a lot there.
@@urbanarkoverland Yeah it is but the more the better if the power goes out you don’t know how long it’ll last
Bluetti should make right angle cords to save space.
I ❤ your videos! Clear, entertaining without trying too hard, and perfectly edited!
I learn the way you teach!
Wow. That’s a lovely comment. Thanks 👍🏻
This was a brilliant video, well edited too, thank you!
One thing to add - You said, "id plug in the solar but no point because of no sun"...It's day time. The panels are mono crystalline, If it's daytime, even cloudy, monos will generate power. Yes albeit low output, but it will generate. That point is for anyone reading comments, who's new to solar etc. Always get mono crystalline over poly crystalline panels :D
Yeah that’s fair. I was being cynical I guess but I suppose if I was being literal then yeah. Sun RAYS aren’t necessary.
Thanks for your comment. And hope to see you in the comments again 👍🏻
Would u say power goes down x%?
Thanks for a superb explanation: brilliantly and sincerely presented and giving really clear and very helpful information to clarify how this all works. I love your approach!
Thanks for this comment 👍🏻
Wish the bulky charging adapters/bricks were built in to the power stations. Also, seems as though the big connecting cords should have 90°cord caps. They sure stick out far from the side when in use. Great segment. And your sincere enthusiasm about this product says a great deal about how well they function and are made. Thankyou Sir.
I do agree how much the wires do stick directly out. All the power stations seem to do the same. I suppose by not adding it inside it is one less moving part. I imagine it’s to keep the brick well ventilated 👍🏻
Some newer big power stations have solved these issues, Hobotech gets a lot of preview models. I'm wishing I'd held on just a month or two, I'd probably have a Pecron, Vtoman or even a Victor now.
(Well, I also have a Victor gramophone from circa 1935 that it would go well with!)
Hi there. Thanks for easy-to-understand videos. I am new to solar energy, and your explanation was right up my street 🙂 ... I've purchased AC200MAX a few days ago, and just waiting for couple of PV200W and D050S enhancer. Planning to add B230 next spring. Anyway, I came across your videos yesterday, and now I am your channel subscriber. Keep up with good work 🙂👍
Thank you for watching and dropping a comment 👍🏻
You can get generic flexible or glass solar panels that are much cheaper than Bluetti's. Just remember, over-amping is ok, but don't over volt!
Great vid again.
Love your explanation. Precisely as I like to have my info too!
Awesome units. Gonna change Van building for sure.
Thanks mate. Just trying to talk like a normal person. Not baffling with numbers etc
Thanks, I just learned a few new tricks. I recently bought the AC 200 Max plus two expansion batteries but I still have things to learn.
Great stuff
Hello .. I'm from Canada .. when I purchased my B230 .. it did not include the TC500 charger .. I had to purchase that seperate .. awesome video .. very informative .. ThanX
Ye. Same case over here. 👍🏻
Another great video on bluetti stuff, loved the way you explained it all pal, brilliant. 👍
Cheers you 👍🏻
I've been looking at these, absolutely brilliant explanation, you convinced me, so guess what? I've bought one! Well done and thanks for the help, cheers 👍
Did you use the link and the code though??? 🤞🏻
@@urbanarkoverland No, Bluetti have it on offer at the minute for £1894 and wouldn't allow another code
@@TheBlokey1000 oh really that’s a shame.
@@urbanarkoverland I've also ordered the tyre table from your link it looks ace. You're right it's easier with a UK supplier. So thanks again.

Thanks so much for the excellent video and explanation. Been looking for this info!!
No problem at all. 👍🏻
@@urbanarkoverland one more thing. Have you tried it with 2 B230s or the B300s?
@@michaelm.9947 with 2 b230s yes.
thank you for the video... what would you recommend the best way is to charge from the vehicles alternator system ?? i have a AC300 and 2 - B300s THANKS
You could just get an inverter. Cheap enough on Amazon. Then use the 240v charger.
i just watched your AC200MAX and the B230 really great video mate
Thank you. I appreciate your feedback 👍🏻
I use 2xB300 with my ac200max and all 3 batteries connected to solar panels now its on 24/7 and have free electricity
Winner winner
Fantastic explanation. I have an AC180 and am looking for a bigger unit. This will be my next purchase.
You in uk?
Look into the new AC200L
Nice video we have on ac max and watch to buy a b230. Does charging work the same with solar energy? Is it best to plug the solar panels into the b230? in the ac mac or in both thanks
I’m not sure it charges via solar. Had no sun ha. Would require 240 charge. I think. I will test this next.
Discount code in description. Money off 👍🏻
Loving the new driveway 😊
Ha x
Actually you can charge the B230 by itself with solar. You can also charge the 200Max through it. I Charge another B230 and 200Max. With the DO5OS adapter you can also charge the B230 from the car.
All this info is explained in the manual shipped with each unit.
You are definitely correct. I have one in the way to share with people by Thank you
Great video as all ways mate keep up the great work and hope you will be doing a work shop build play list as well 👍👍🐼🐼
Ha. Not sure about that. People don’t like variety.
@@urbanarkoverland haha very true keep up the good work mate

@@urbanarkoverland ur hoodie should be ready this week as well mate
Brilliant explanation. I have a 200MAX and looking to buy a B300 and wondering how they would interact. This video explains it all.
Excellent. 👍🏻
I've seen some pictures that suggest the B300 is the same size as the B230, so the AC200 series will fit neatly on top. They aren't! The B300 is quite a bit wider.
I hope not. I wrote Bluetti and asked them if they were compatible...they assured me they were....before I bought it. Haven't received it yet I'll let you know.
@@brucerobert2355works totally differnt than the b230, right? lol. I’m glad I got the b300. Way less confusing
@worldcomicsreview354 assuming since this video is 9 months old that you have the b300 hooked up and know how it works with the ac200max. Does it charge and discharge the same as the b230 in the video? I was thinking of adding two b300s for a total of of 8kwh.
Thank you, that was cool.
Bloody hell your right, that is a clever system.
Nice one ✊
Seriously clever mate.
I'm thinking of buying this for my two-bedroom home.
Oh ok. That’s really beating the energy crises.
Below there is a link…. And a voucher code. Combined you get £80 off. They are on Sal at the moment too 👍🏻
Thanks, I appreciate the Demo.. 👍
No problem 👍🏻
Can I connect my max air fan straight to that rv plug. What connections do I need?
Need a fuse holder in between. Like in the video 👍🏻
Looking to add a B300 to my AC200MAX and PT200 panels. I see the panels can be daisy chained to expand but 2 questions:
Is there a longer extension cable available to locate panels on the roof or on top of a canopy? Are these just generic cables for this purpose?
The bulky loop cable to connect the B300 to the AC200MAX seems cumbersome. Is there anything generally available with 90 degree bends (C shaped) for a slimmer filament?
@@BiggerDummy ha ha.
1. Yes these are generic solar wires with mc4.
2. No. Ha ha. And it is a bit clunky.
Great explanation on how the devices charge, daisy chain, and balance the load/charge. I’d like to see a simple laypersons (like me) explanation on what devices can be used and for how long. For example, in a household power outage, how long could I use a standard refrigerator and couple of lights?
That’s just maths mate. It basically has 2kw capacity. Then plus another 2kw for b230. So it could run a 1 kw heater for 4 hours. Or a 100 watt light for 40 hours. Does that make sense.
@@urbanarkoverland perfect. This missing factor was the device usage in wattage. I googled that. Thanks!
It seems that four 60 watt lights (240/hr) and a refrigerator (est 120/hr) would last for 5.5 hours with a 2000w power pack. Sound about right?
PS. Sincere thanks for your attention.
@@Dbgolfnski no problem.
Regarding refrigerator. There are so many variable factors. Even the room temperature. So I like to use more certain examples. Like a 2kw heater. 2kw is 2000watts. The unit is 2048 watts. You lose some watts due to the operation etc. ball park. 2 hours. 👍🏻
Hi, I love the way you present these videos, thank you! I have a question hopefully you can help with more generally with portable power stations, I have a camper van with a factory leisure battery set up 2 100Ah AGM batteries, 150w solar, and all under warranty!! I was wondering, is there any way to integrate a portable power station or is it best to just keep them separate? Can you charge the power station through a leisure battery setup (I don't like the idea of using a cigarette lighter type plug) and connect via a 30amp outlet and a switched connector (if such a thing exists?) back into the system? Sorry seems to have become a long question but I cant seem to find an answer on YT...... thanks.
Hi. No official way to ‘hack’ the charging.
You are definitely better keeping it seperate rather than integrating it.
Find my email in the description and mail me 👍🏻
This is brilliant, thank you for the vid. Thumb's up and subscribed.
Good man
Does the B230 come with the daisy chain cable? if you have the AC200P (NOT MAX) which doesn't have wifi, will the app work for both AC200P/B230, since the B230 has wifi (I think). thanks.
Hi mate. Yes to cable. And probably no to the app. As the b230 only works on app as part of ac200 max 👍🏻
understood thanks.@@urbanarkoverland
Have you found a way to hook the AC200Max up to a DC to DC charger? (I know about the car charger but think a B2B will charge far faster and more efficiently) I am about to buy but that is holding me back at the moment.
Afraid I haven’t looked into this yet 😬 think I will explore this though. 👍🏻
I have done it mate, I have a video on it on here. It's easy enough, I'll ping you a DM on Insta
thank you so much, I was looking for that exact information, as I didn't want to buy the extra battery pack to go with my 200Max unless you could charge it without AC, you have put my mind at ease, thank you again, great explanation.
No problem 👍🏻
Hi, how the ac200max can be used in a car with max working temp of 40deg centigrade and storage of max 45deg ?
Can you refer to temp issues ? thanks.
I cannot. Best ask technical 👍🏻
@@urbanarkoverland Thanks. Important issue if you are leaving it on a closed car/van in summer sun or working/charging
in summer sun with no shade.
Do you know if there’s any lost in power when the batteries are trying to level out?
Not experienced this no 👍🏻
nicely presented .im considering the bluetti ac200 max for my sole electrical needs in my peugout boxer build. just a quick question on the 240v ac side. if i used hookup at a site i would plug the power brick into my van garage 240v socket to charge up if needed from my van consumer unit. now when not on hookup i want to use the built in inverter to power the same sockets in my van. how would i do that if the sockets are hardwired to my van consumer unit. Hope that makes sense and im sure theres an easy explanation. Keep up the good work love the videos.
Not easily mate. Best to keep them separate to be honest. Can you run an extra wire to plug next to existing. And know that one will be dead when not hooked up etc.
Yeah that could work thanks mate. Also maybe I could put a changeover switch to connect a different circuit possibly. Didn't just want to be using inverter if on a campsite at all , so I can use there post power into my ehu .
Sounds like it is optimized to keep the batteries balanced so that you aren't pushing the limits of either one on full charge or discharge, should extend life of both, right?
Hope so. These batteries are lifepo4 so longevity is as standard 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻
You explained it perfectly. you talk my language.
Excellent 👍🏻
This is a very well explained video and answered some questions I didn't know needed answering as I hadn't thought of the questions. 😅
I currently own an AC200max and am charging it with 2 x PV350 panels. I want to add a B230 at some stage and perhaps a second as well in order to reach 6+kwh capacity. What else do I need to purchase apart from the 1 or 2 B230 units? The DO50S charging enhancer states it increases the PV input to 1400 watts. Does that mean I could add another 2 x PV350 solar panels to make a total of 1400 watt worth solar input?
Hi. I never really used the DO50s. So not entirely sure how that works.
Are you in the uk?
@@urbanarkoverland Yes I am.
@@Natalie-earth email or insta me if you are interested in a b230
Going cheap.
Hi mate. Really enjoy your output, thank you. Just wanted to know whether you think the Bluetti or Goal Zero Yeti are the best bet to use as new van energy supply. I like the idea of the Yeti with the Car charge add on. Would like to hear your thoughts.
Cheers,
Matt
Well you can’t ignore the price. Considering they pretty much do the same. The price has to be an issue.
With the link below it’s less that half price.
I have Bluetti eb240 and ac200p. I am happy with them. I bought both on a sale. I like to share to eb240 with family since it is so easy to use.
@@margaloone7970 👍🏻
Hobotech also told me the charge shown on the main unit is combined, but not about the levelling!
How's your self-discharge? If I turn mine off, it's terrible in the cold. The other day it went from 61% to 0% just by being switched off for a few hours (in a Japanese flat, which is insulated about as well as a camper). Stick some black tape over that obnoxiously-bright green light, and leave it on all the time!
(Also Bluetti said solar input "wakes up" the unit. It doesn't)
Mine is sat in the garage. And it’s less than 0. And still reads the same.
I think I knew solar didn’t wake the unit up so not sure where you got that info.
I need to explore the unit more.
Very informative, cheers ol But 👍
Cheers you.
Thanks for doing this video 👍☘️
No problem. Links and discount codes in description too 👍🏻
My B230s have been off over winter and now they are acting all strange. I'm hoping a full discharge and charge will sort them out....
Oh right. Never seen that. 🤔
@@urbanarkoverland I think one of them got too cold in the log cabin but its acting how it should now and is charging the other 2 batteries.

Hello how can you get the big black cable that connect the generator and the other battery? I haven't got it with my ac200max and now that I want to expand it with the b230 batterie I wanna know if ill get it with it or not... Thanks
Hi. Are you in the uk?

So got issues with my existing battery and location,
Is it possible to use this instead and charge it from alternator to power fridge on the road without a leisure battery?

Well that’s a great question. Not sure there is actually a Law. Check out my latest Clayton video has built in rcd protection 👍🏻
@@urbanarkoverland yeah from what I’ve been reading and seeing is that for the van to be legally registered as a camper it needs to have a consumer unit/breaker box fitted
@@Bounce625 well if you are looking to hook up to the mains. Then you would want one anyway. Because you would have sockets that make use of the mains. Then simply plug the bluetti into one of those sockets.
So it's exactly like 2 12v batteries put in parallel?
Kind of. Except you would never connect two 12v batteries at different states of charge. And you can here
good stuff. thansk for the video
👍🏻
I just have a question though..if you’d use this method as the main electrical setup rather than the conventional one, could you plug the van into shore power? And how would that work as opposed to a regular battery station? (Not tech-sawwy here..)
Yeah. Just have a totally separate 240 ring. Small fuse board. Few sockets. And also have the bluetti charger plugged in. So it charges as soon as you hook up 👍🏻

what happens when your're charging and also power a device with the ACmax
Pass through is fine. See my other vid in the ac200max mate. You can charge and use at same time. 400 in and 200 out. Will basically be 200 in. If that makes sense.
Man.. I have the b300 expansion battery and it seems much easier to understand lol. They have 2 different battery percentages when it’s hooked up to the 200max. Shows the percentage of each.
Ye ideal ha 👍🏻👍🏻
Love it!
Cheee you
Are you sure you have the AC200MAX? I bought one recently and it has the 4 AC outlets, plus another outlet to hook up a caravan electrical panel. 🤔
I’m sure yes. Are you in the states?
@@urbanarkoverland yes I am. I never thought they'd be different geographically. But when you mentioned 240 volt charging, that also threw me.
@@aumetalmental8403 ye. They are different between uk and other countries. We don’t really have that caravan hookup you guys have. And your sockets are 110v I believe
@@urbanarkoverland Yes they are 110 volt receptacles.
After using the blue Eddie AC 200 max I’ve come to the conclusion that the only way I can turn on the unit is with the power button even if you plug something in it will not activate I recommend downloading the app and shut the unit off from your phone or other device that button can only be pressed so many times before it stops working I bet
Yeah the master switch has to be pressed.
These things have a massive warranty so don’t fear 👍🏻
super interesting that mate
Cheers dude.
Check out the new AC200L. More Wh, and no charging brick.
I am a cheap bastard and bought the Max because it was on sale instead.
Ha ha. At least you admit it. 👍🏻
What’s the mains?
Ha ha. That’s English for house power I suppose. 240 here. 110 where you are I guess
I won't actually call the pair portable as they are heavy and bulky. It would definitely take up a lot of precious space.
You say that. But compare it to a similar battery Bt hen an inverter. And a mppt. And all the wiring. I think it’s compact.
That's why we got both for our Motorhome, more power, less space and less money than for a full exchange to lithium built-in. Plus it's flexible so we can use them in the house if we have any power cuts, we love them, life changing when on the road.
Perfect thanks
👍🏻
a 90 degree angle, short expansion cable would be nice
Yes it sure would 👍🏻
great info
Check out part 1 👍🏻
Up until a week ago I was sold on Bluetti as good alternative to power my new van build. Then my current Bluetti which just went out of warranty malfunctioned. It would no longer charge and the display failed. Great, now I have to send it somewhere, easy…google Bluetti repair. No problem for warranty issues but if anyone repairs these things they are keeping a secret. Max Oak, the company I bought this from, jerked me around for about 10 emails and then said we can’t help you. I tried Bluetti but they blew me off when they found out it was out of warranty. Now I have a $1,000 boat anchor. Keep in mind if you are considering using a Bluetti for your power source, if one small component fails, you’re out of power. And, good luck if you spend four or five thousand on one of these and it fails after the warranty period.
Gutted for ya mate. Sounds like a nightmare.
Yes you are right. Not like a setup consisting of lots of individual parts.
Not sure about your price point there though. 4/5 thousand?

@@karllongden4011 I haven’t had an issue to be fair. Always doing exactly what it’s supposed to.
It’s a smart system but it’s bulky and takes 6 hours to charge on AC, eco flow smashes them on both charging speeds and portability
How many ah is the ecoflow?
@@urbanarkoverland in the price range of an ac200max you’d be looking at the delta max 2000 which is 2016wh but with a 0-80% charge time of 60 mins and 0-100% 1.6 hours on ac charging.
@@dans2039 yeah that’s impressive.
I don’t see the massive need to charge it so rapidly. I understand it helps. But if you are hooked up. Chances are it’s for more than an hour. Genuine question. Does that unit take solar and 240 at same time?
@@urbanarkoverland true but then I think if your hooked up then you don’t really need a power station tbh, small lead acid battery and a 20 quid charger would cover it your needs.
I mostly work demolition sites for anywhere between 6-12 weeks at a time and everything in the van is run by the smaller river pro unit and an extra battery (1440wh) that gets me around 35ish hours before I have to run Generator for hour and half to charge it back to full which is where the fast charge comes into its own compared to the other brands that take 5-6 hours of fuel to recharge them.
Yeah it will dual charge ac and 800w Solar
@@dans2039 right Si the fast charge IS very relevant for you both at makes sense. Someone like myself you see. When I get to plug it in. It probably isn’t going back in the van for a couple of days. So I do t recognise the issue. It’s finding what suits huh.
