Love the humor bits, oh and especially the shag carpet!

[stephanematis]

Perhaps the best way for Bluetti to demo their wares without odd marketing gimmicks. I look forward to more information about how this system works out.

A big thanks to Bluetti for supplying this setup for my In-laws' home, If you're interested in this Bluetti AC500 and the B300S:

[RobertVinet]

Awesome to see you both doing so well and recharging your batteries. And it's also great to see Bluetti packing more and more into their energy products. Amazing what they are doing these days in such a small package. I look forward to your future videos and seeing how you build a viable solar system in northern Saskatchewan.

[tcrichton]

Great to see you both "recharged" and cheery! Enjoy your time at home!

As always, your projects inspire and your attention to detail (with the ATS etc) is lovely to witness.

[conradhendricks]

Always love your videos and the attention to detail. As a sound engineer I especially like the audio quality you achieved by using the mic on your hat brim. Very clean and clear audio for the whole video.

[normanhooten]

As a recent purchaser of An AC 300/B300, I found your video very informative and quite helpful. Looking forward to more in the future.

[magnoliathebus]

My gosh you make me laugh. Welcome home (though I'm not in Canada anymore myself 😛)! We recently bought a Bluetti AC300 with two B300's as a start towards our bus electrical system, and will get another of the same to complete it. We are very satisfied with them so far.

My mom, now passed, had three refrigerators and a freezer, none of which were frostless and all at least 20 years old. Being of Japanese descent, my mom also kept a 30 gallon galvanized garbage can filled with rice because . . . well, you just never know! :)

[JockeSelin]

Brilliant stuff as usual! These magic boxes keep getting bigger and smarter all the time! Hope you’re enjoying your family time! Take care and give that shag carpet some extra fuzzles from us! 🤘🏻😊👍🏻

[Northman]

Hey guys … great video and great project for your folks. Considering this set up for our place.

[davewarrant]

As always, great job balancing technical and layman's explanation.

without the transfer witch can achieve the same work, just use the NEMA 14-50 Plug comes out from the BT and back to the sub-panel, to supply all the critical appliances. BT will connect the grid to the sub-panel, all the appliances will charge by grid.

[primotimes]

I have learned and enjoyed many of your videos. You seem to have just enough daring and skill to get things done. I need more of those qualities while getting into my new project. Keep up the good work, and come further east in Canada next time.
Watch you soon 👍

[java]

Very cool, I would certainly love a system like that

[zodberg]

I guess if there's a long power outage during the winter, you could take all your freezer items in to the backyard if you're trying to conserve power.

[pauleastend]

Hey guys, new watcher and now a new follower after seeing this informative and simple to understand video, thanks. This question has probably already been asked and answered but when activated due to power outage that transfer switch must only supply power to the designated circuits while grid power is otherwise it would back feed power to the grid without a main breaker interlock kit.

[abeibrahim]

Thank you so much for your overview - My only 2 Qs are; 1. Does the company also make Solar panels? and 2. how much does this setup cost?

[tra]

I prefer to work on a hot panel, although some of my drivers would beg to differ. 🥺 Yes, panels!

[krisk]

Nice, you're not far from my current location. So regarding the smart switch what model would you recommend for people that cannot do their own modifications
