    Can I use the new B300S Bluetti battery pack with the AC300

    The cable that comes in the box with the B300S is P150D on both sides, since that is the connector on both the B300S and the AC500 (150 Amp rating). The B300 and AC300 have the P090D connector (90 Amp).

    Adding DIY battery to Bluetti AC300

    It’s a beautiful thing isn’t it. On a good day I can make and store 10kWh with my 1600W of panels.

    Small solar power station with automatic transfer?

    The Bluetti products with selectable UPS modes will do this. I’m running part of my house on an AC300 right now in this way with it set to PV priority UPS mode.

    Question re: solar power generators, solar charging and inverter draw

    Most Bluetti products will wake up with solar input then power themselves off a bit after it goes away. Inverter is never on and consuming standby power unless you turn it on.

    Adding DIY battery to Bluetti AC300

    Yes, read post 4 of this thread. The AC300 NEEDS a B300 to talk to. The B300 and its BMS aren't an optional accessory, at least one attached is mandatory to have the AC300 work.

    How efficient is your generator?

    Here is some math on Honda inverter generators I did some time ago based on Honda's run time claims at 1/4 and full load: The Honda EU7000 burns 5.1 gallons of gasoline in 6.5 hours at 5500 W to make 35.75 kWh at 7.00 kWh/gal (fuel injected!) The Honda EU6500 burns 4.5 gallons of gasoline in...

    Monitoring Bluetti Systems

    I am not seeing this on mine. What edition of HA are you on? I'm running 'HA core' on a Pi.

    That was vague, not this site. one of the HomeAssistant forums. I'm happy to share what you need to duplicate.

    I spent some time with HA today, following other threads on the topic and have mapped individual cell voltages for my B300's into HA. love it.

    5-20p to L14-30R for Ecoflow Delta 2 Max

    Reviews on that 5-20 to L14-30 adapter cord indicate that it doesn't power both the X and Y blades on the L14-30 side. you may want to take a multimeter and poke through your whole setup.

    new to solar- panel array advice on bluetti ac300 pls

    Three of those in series on each of the two MPPT inputs would be a good setup. 123Voc so some headroom for cold weather on the 150V input. 1110W nominal x2 = 2220W total. Yes you could overpanel by doing another three in parallel (for 3S2P) on one of both controller inputs. It wouldn't make...

    They are pretty responsive, I hope you see improved results. Forecast is neat when it works. Yesterday expected 9.3kWh, I got 2.5 due to clouds rolling the wrong way. Today is 9.7 and I need it!
