  • Bluetti AC500 Home backup system. I tested out the AC500 and B300s battery by connecting it to my current transfer switch in my shop and a small 1600-watt (4 panels) to see how it would perform. You might be surprised by the outcome.

    What works for me is Priority UPS. During the night the battery SOC might dip lower than you want, so you can set it to any value between 0 and 100%, and when it gets that low Grid charging will kick in and hold it there until the sun comes up and the solar panels go to work. It's a great automatic feature for going almost offgrid to cut down on the Power bill. I do have to make some adjustments with the seasons, esp Winter with shorter sunny days and a lower sun angle. I do need to get the batteries to 100% SOC everyday.

    great video! Question for ya. Plan on using this permanently as home backup with transfer switch. Can you leave the solar plugged into it 24/7 or do you have to plug/unplug after charging and so forth? Love to just setup panels outside and leave connected and not have to bother or worry is it charged or not before power outage......appreciate your help.

      I have this system powering my shop (over 2000 sq ft) connected to Solar (24x7). I run two of them since I need 240v back up on the main mini split but it handles this space great.

    You can run 150v through each MPPT . Up to 3kw. You can run 3 500 watt 48v panels on each string.

    Hello Justin, I enjoyed the video!
    However, I don't understand what I need to fully power my 50a A Class RV. I have the AC 500 & 1 B300s battery. When I plug my 50a power cord, I don't get the power I need (no frig, no microwave, no AC)
    When I use a 30a adapter and plug into the AC500, everything turns on except my air conditioner (the AC fans come on but not the cooling).
    Do you know what I need to plug into 50a plug and get the power I need?

    • @JustinsProject
      @JustinsProject  Місяць тому +1

      For 50a output you will need 2x AC500's. I am assuming your AC is 240v. Each AC500 is 120v. When you pair 2 of them you create a 240v system.

    Good luck with your Bluetti Promotion.
    Unfortunately, Bluetti, and other companies of the like, have gotten extremely rich at the expense of American customers that they do not provide good customer service to. If any at all. They simply don't care to improve it.

    Take the PV2 connectors, wrap them together with some electrical tape and forget about them. There's your single cable. If MPPT 1 fails, you can use the other set/mppt. Problem solved.

    Does this kit have any "bottleneck" issues if grid recharge is on and kit installed like an UPS? Will the kit work in some transit mode for grid energy while battery is out of energy?

    • @JustinsProject
      @JustinsProject  25 днів тому

      I have not experienced any bottlenecking. Yes, you can control the usage in the setting. I personally have this one setup in a custom time of use. Works perfectly.

      @@JustinsProject Hey Justin, thank you for replying to my mail. My name is Curtis and I have a basic question for you...
      I just purchased a "BESTARC" Plasma Cutter, Pilot Arc BTC500DP 7th Generation 50Amps Screen Display Dual Voltage 110/220V Digital Plasma Cutting Machine.
      Right.
      Also, I've purchased the BLUETTI AC500 and four B300S batteries separately for my mobile shop.
      Question: The BESTARC, set for 120 volts using the BLUETTI, plugged into one of the 20AMP plug outlets keeps short circuiting and shutting down.
      The parameters on the BESTARC Plasma cutter is set for 18 AMPS. It still keeps on shorting the AC500 and the four batteries plugged in parallel and all batteries are 95% charged.
      Shall I purchase another AC500 and a
      AC500 Fusion Box to pair, granting me 240 AC Voltage for the cutter and my welder?
      What am I doing wrong? Please help....
      Curtis, Thank you
