Bluetti AC200 max review powering my house and saving me money on my electricity bill!

A long term review of the Bluetti Ac200Max powering my house and more. This solar powered generator has been powering most of my house for around 10 months are so and has cut my Electrical bill By 75%.

Wow! I’m going to have to get me a Bluetti, too. Looks like it will pay itself of in a year or two. Thanks.

Thanks for the update. I also live in CA and these rates are getting ridiculous. This definitely makes me want to make the switch!

love the videos I have bought the bluetti maxx with two b230 external batteries so a total of 6k of battery but unfortunately not enough for my needs I will be upgrading to the bluetti AC300 with more solar input and WIFI monitoring also if it wasn't for your videos I would have not bought the Maxx and saved a lot of money during the summer electricity bills keep up the videos P.S. I also power 75% of my home in case anyone wanted to know this is powerful enough

Great review of the AC200Max, the only thing that bothers me is the pretty dim LCD display. I find it hard to read whenever I use it outdoors.

I also have done reviews on my Bluetti products. The max is running my furnace and fridges. I have setup time shifting as well because the rate during the day is 15.1 cents and at night it’s 7.5 cents. Love my AC200 Max

Great overview. Thanks for the update. I am curious how you set up Team Viewer. Were you able to use a cell phone at the AC200 Max to monitor and control it remotely with your own phone?
I'm looking at putting one in our RV, and that would be an awesome tool.
Thanks!

My AC300 does not like my washing machine either, trips the AC off. Washing machine about 20 years old. It may pull to much amps when starting each cycle?
What issue do you have when the washing machine is plugged in? Does it trip the Bluetti AC off?

[ChadWoodward]

Do you know how many watt hours you use per day? I’m just not sure this would be enough to significantly offset my bill. I used 1900 kWh last month. I understand this wouldn’t run my central AC. So I believe that would still need to be connected to the grid.

Hey Andrew, what do you think about trying for a solar tax credit with a system similar to yours? Also, I wonder if hooking up the 30 amp plug, which is an option on these transfer switches, would make the washer work better. Mine just does not spend very well.

[ryanyoder]

Love my AC200 but the AC500 is way better. I have the AC500 in my garage with 6kwh battery and it’s able to power a lot of circuits. It also has an integrated AC charger and can do time shifting and PV priority.

[blueheelers]

does this bluetti power a heater or how do you heat your home

[htnowpro]

Check into a newer washing machine. My AC200P will run my LG front loader with no problem, pulls 1100 watts. I am feeding the house thru a transfer switch.

[nicepark]

Hey Andrew, are you getting AC200L? You can put 1200W max solar input and it has a built-in WiFi connectivity. Looks like your dream came true. :) The only thing is AC200Max can handle 1400W max (900W via aviation plug and 500W via D050S enhancer)...

So with th ac200max into your house panel, you cant use the grid and bluetti at the same time correct? Its either one or the other?

[jcnlala]

I have the same transfer switch with the AC200MAX . I have two brakers that keep trigering and put the bluetti in overload. I even ran one breaker at a time to test them but it keeps giving me that alarm of overload. Any suggestions?

[Eaglesnbirdies]

So how much have you saved on electricity bill? Will it break even over 5 years?

[JohnBraman]

the ac300 has an rv style outlet that's 30amps. that might be a better unit for you.

[markspencer]

I have the AC200Max and the AC200L and I am completely off the grid and I don’t use a washing machine or dryer so I’m extremely satisfied and I don’t have the $400 monthly electric bill anymore..!!!

[EliseAngelofHealing]

Are you using the B230 or B300 battery?
