A BLUETTI BEAST - AC200MAX & B300 review & a little bit of turning ..

  • I finally had an offer to review a product that I was genuinely interested in, the #Bluetti AC200Max is a beast on its own, but coupled with the B300 expandable battery it gives a capacity of over 5000 watt hours of power. I was kindly sent the units by Bluetti to review and managed to sneak a bit of woodturning in there as well.
    If backup or portable power is something you may be interested in, Bluetti have a unit or system to suit any scenario.

    I've owned a Bluetti Power station for a couple of years now and it's worked great, so when I was approached by #Bluetti to see if I would be interested in checking out a couple of there products, I thought I would be stupid to pass up the offer, as it's something I am genuinely interested in..
    So here's my attempt at a product review. I also managed to sneak a bit of woodturning in there ( full video to come )
    I hope some of you may find something of interest in the video, if so check out the links below or in the video description.. Thanks for checking it out

      The grinder did not draw any more power because once it was up to speed the momentum of the wheels needed next to no energy to maintain.

      You didn't put any load on those devices except the lathe.
      As soon as they need to do any work the power consumption will increase and depending on the machine could go over the batteries limits.

    Blimey that sander drew some power. That is a serious bit of kit which hopefully will pay for itself in the next couple of years. Not sure about using it as a coffee table though but hay-ho, each to their own. 👍

    @victoriaeads6126 Рік тому

    That is a gorgeous piece of yew, and a lovely hollow form vase you turned from it.
    Also, hi! Nice voice reveal!
    We have been considering something like these power stations for awhile. We live in a rural area, and we lose power for weather related reasons a few times a year. Usually it's only for a few hours, but it's still inconvenient. This seems to me to be a much better alternative to traditional gas/petrol powered backup generators, but it is very hard to tell how effective they are. This was most certainly the best test I have ever seen in putting one of these systems through its paces. If we decide on a Bluetti, we will be sure to use the link so that you get whatever credit is due.
    Thank you for the review and recommendation!

      @AndyPhillipWoodturning  Рік тому

      Yes .. I did find that slightly weird but when it's connected you don't really do anything with the b300 ... as far as I'm aware the b200 sits the correct way when stacked with the ac200 max and the b300 sits the correct way when stacked with the ac300

    These battery systems are improving, the trendy term of "solar generator" is a misnomer. Calling them a multi-sourced charged battery is more accurate, You say you had one for a couple of years. 24 months is the standard warranty on most of theses types of units, some offer purchase of extended warranties, which one should purchase as no one on the planet offers a repair service for them. They will fail, whether before or after the warranty, they will fail. At that point you have a partial cost replacement option or, if out of warranty, a very heavy boat anchor. If Bluetti offers a repair service, buy one, they would be the sole company to do so. Ask me how I know about the industry wide 24 month warranty, wait, nope, better not, the answer is not conducive to product sales. They are very expensive for a throw-a-way appliance. Do your own research....

    • @AndyPhillipWoodturning
      @AndyPhillipWoodturning  Рік тому

      I can only go off my own experience and so far I have had no problem with the eb70 .. I also have leisure batterys and solar in my van , that set up probably cost more than the bluetti and everything in there has a life span .. does anything last last forever ?? I'm really not sure what your point is .. if you are interested in buying a product and happy with the warranty you buy it, if your not you don't...
