BLUETTI AC180P Solar Portable Power Station | 1,800W 1,440Wh

FAQS

• Q1: What is Power Lifting Mode？

  A: In this mode, AC180P can run high-power heating devices up to 2,700W, such as space heaters, hair dryers, electric blankets, etc.
  Do NOT use this unit to run an air conditioner or washing machine.

• Q2: Can it charge and discharge at the same time?

  Yes.

• Q3: How do I know whether my appliance can work well with the AC180P?

  Calculate the total wattage of your devices. AC180P should work if the load doesn't exceed its rated 1,800W.

• Q4: How long can it run my device?

  A: The AC180P has different running times depending on the device you're using it with.
  For high-power devices, the running time = Battery capacity × DoD × η ÷ load power.
  For low-power devices, the running time = Battery capacity × DoD × η ÷ (load power + self-consumption of AC180P). DoD refers to Depth of Discharge and η is local inverter efficiency.
  For AC180P, DoD is 90%, η is 85%, and self-consumption is about 15W. E.g. If you run a 100W blender with it, the running time will be: 1440Wh × 90% × 85% ÷ (100W+15W) ≈ 7.66 hrs
  Note: 1) The formula is NOT suitable for inductive loads with compressors, like refrigerators, air conditioners, etc. 2) The above data is for reference ONLY.

• Q5: How quickly can I charge the AC180P?

  A:

  The AC180P supports up to 1,440W input. Plug it into a wall outlet and turn on the Turbo Charging mode on the BLUETTI App, and you can fill it up in only 1.5-2 hours.

• Q6: What's the difference between Silent, Standard, and Turbo Charging modes?
