Given that the B80 does NOT work as a battery extension, only as a charger, I will just buy a LiFePO4 battery and toss it in a cheap battery box. That will give me 50% more capacity than the B80 for about half the price. Other youtubers have already demonstrated using a LiFePO4 battery to charge the EB3A directly.
I have a EB3A also it’s a pretty nice little Power Station however it is a pain to only get about three hours worth of television out of it I wondered about adding a LIFEPO4 also do you think it’s safe? I thought about a 50 amp hour battery or maybe a 100. right now I have a small home solar system made up primarily of Renorgy 100 W solar panels and Victron energy products when my EB3A Gets low on power I plug it into my Victron Phoenix 1200 inverter and recharge it that way I was using two solar panels to charge it however I recently bought a little baby blue Victron charge controller 100/15 smart charge controller and I used the two panels I was charging the eb3a with and combined them with an additional one I had in the garage to power that little charge controller I paired it(the 100/15 c/c)with my 100/50 charge controller so I could have a little extra power to keep my refrigerator running I put a three-way plug adapter in my inverter and I have my refrigerator plugged in and the power station only as needed. I guess it’s kind of crazy to do it that way however it’s quick and my system can handle it so far anyway so that’s how I’m doing it I think I need to build an additional system just to charge the Power Station and oversize it a little bit maybe and have some additional back up battery storage.
you can get a 100ah lithium phosphate battery and recharge your eb3a. i think charge rate will be around 80-100 watt per hour. if that's slow, then you can use a booster(step up converter) to boost 12volt to 24 volt. that set up is much cheaper. there are several YT video showing you how to do that.
As somebody already has the EB3A and a car charger thanks for this video because well I still plan to get to b80 because it still fits the use i have planned for it but I see no reason to purchase that additional cable I'll just plug the car charger into the DC outlet on the front.
Thanks. This is what I was wondering myself as well and I was about to ask the question. Why would I want to buy that cable. Why Not using a car charger?
Great video, it answers the questions I had about the unit , for my usage I think it's a waste of time but to each their own. I just use a 220ah Timeusb battery with a 12 to 24 Volt step up and it still comes out cheaper then that unit and will not shut off on me until I shut it off or the battery is dead. 😎😎
maybe you could catch the EB3A on sale and buy 2 units then use the second unit to recharge the primary unit for more far less than the additional cost of the B80?
Thanks for detailed explanation about powerbank mode. Honestly I don't think It's a good way to use EB3A. The reason is missing real path-through charging. So every time EB3À charges itself and discharges itself simultaneously life of batteries dramatically is decreased. With real path-through charging you could use B80 as main source of power and control energy usage with eb3a effectively. I have impression that Bluetti stopped on half of way here.
I'm not sure about this. Am I missing something? It's $700 to expand the capacity of my EB70s by 800 watts. For $459 I could buy another 800 watt EB70s!
Unfortunately the Aviation cable does not appear to be available anywhere. It looks like the AC charger is the same as the EB70? Do you know if that is the correct charger? Thanks TME...great information!
So... what's the benefit of using this cable vs. Using a cigarette to DC7909? I can daisy chain a cig to dc7909 whilst using solar to power b80. What's the benefit?
Could you use the cig output from the B80 to the input 12/24 v input solar charging port of the EB3A, so that the B80 never shuts off. As it would think it actually on and constantly charging? New subscriber, enjoying your detailed videos. Keep up the good work.
So what you are saying is for about $1000 I can get the eb3a and this extra battery giving me about 90ah of 12v. Of course I still have to buy an extra cable. Except the extra battery makes this device stop being an all-in-one, easily portable unit. And the extra battery must be turned on after the eb3a's battery has already started to drain and it will only charge at less than 200w. I'm sorry, but that is extremely expensive for what you get. You can get an ecoflow Delta 2 (1024wh and 1800w). The Delta 2 has fast charging, 0-80% in 50 minutes or 0-100% in 80 minutes. This costs $800 and is an all-in-one unit. The Delta 2 also allows expanding the batteries up to 3kwh.
If you use a expansion battery pack (B80) or solar charging, does the passthrough mode use up the EB3A's battery cycles? or does it go straight through?
Concerning Cycles whether it's the add-on battery or the EB3a you will use a cycle once you go from 100% down to zero that will use one cycle on any of those devices. That really doesn't have anything to do with pass-through charging I hope that answered your question if not let me know
@@TechMadeEzy somewhat. I use mine in the UPS mode for my home network, so it's always plugged into the wall and charging/passing through, and always curious if it degrades the eb3a's battery cells over time, even by a little
So theres no data connection to the sogen its charging in power bank mode. All it reads is output power to the sogen. Pretty much you can charge any brand sogen as long as it has the barrel input connector is the right fit? To add to that why not just daisy chain sogen to sogen , wouldn't it be cheaper that way?
For the same amount of money you can get two 100Ah batteries plus a cheap charger that gives you 2.4kWh expansion, or a large solar generator with a huge inverter.
I wouldn't say any device, normally the firmware detects what's attached. You can daisy chain but keep in mind if you are using AC it will also use some additional power since the inverter requires some power.
Tell me if I’m wrong. Seems to me this comes in handy when you need to use an Eb3a AC plug (600 watt inverter) and you need extra stored power for that. Otherwise, I just use them individually for DC things. In that scenario, I thought $600 was a decent deal for all those watt hours in the B80. If I ever upgrade to an AC60 or 180, I already have the B80 expansion.
You are correct, portable ready to go power and yes will work with the AC60 and AC180 even the older EB55 we did videos see below AC60 ua-cam.com/video/jGgDVr92dRE/v-deo.htmlsi=q-SwMfRrSfmVwaYZ EB55 ua-cam.com/video/PACcJBdJh5Q/v-deo.htmlsi=g7mMWyA0f2rru9d5

You can do the same exact thing for a fraction of the cost using a dc to dc 12v to 24v converter and ANY 12v battery / source. I have a 200ah 12 lifepo4 battery (2.5KWH) extending the eb3a. It also does not automatically shut off. You can use any types of batt as long as its 12v!! Dont waste your hard earn $$$ on this expensive B80.
you can even go as far as connecting the dc to dc 12 to 24v converter directly to your cars 12v battery while car is running to get unlimited power for the eb3a!!!
B80 way too expensive for 806wh. prefer byying a 12,8v 280ah battery for that price = 3,584Wh + 230wh= total 3 852 wh. or a 24v 100ah is much more wh than th B80 can give ya. might look better i do agree but efficency outweights the look :) I would go with a 24v 100 Litime battery
What about using the BLUETTI P090D To DC7909 External Battery Connection and a b230 battery? Then to recharge the b230 battery use the charge enhancer.
Nice review. I hope that Bluetti will fix with the software that the B80 does not turn off after charging the EB3A. I have a question. Is that sound heard all the time while the EB3A is charging through the B80?
Great review. Could you charge the eb3 via wall and 80 simultaneously? Also I think just buying a ac180 when on sale for 899 is a better over setup but I do like the 80 being used for other units.
I have the Eb70s and I'm struggling to keep my fridge running more than 3 days. I'm presently camping and the days are cloudy and our campsites are under the canopy of trees. This would double my off-grid camping time. Honestly, if you are just starting out I'd look at other options but if you have a smaller portable Bluetti with panels and cables then this is a pretty good solution. But then again another Eb70s is about the same Wh/$
Seems to me that the B80 should come with charging cables in the first place if not with the Expansion Battery Accessories as you have indicated. It’s kind of dumb not to be able to charge your device.
Exactly what I'm going through right now and why I'm watching this video. I'm leaving for a trip in 3 days and the B80 is pretty useless to me for the 10 days they're going to take to get to my next destination.
I've had three of these EB3A and have had problems with all three when using it as a UPS. Won't be purchasing anything else from Bluetti. You're also better off buying a 100AH battery and a 12 to 24V converter. Way cheaper and 1028 extra watt hours..
can the EB3a be recharged from a EB70s using an amazon 24v adapter-HKY DC Converter 24V 90W DC Adapter This item HKY DC Converter 24V 90W DC Adapter ????
I think the voltage needs to be boosted to 24v to get a full charge, solar is not my option Im interested in if I can use the eb70 to charge the eb3? Maybe Im overthinking it if using the ac adapter will work?

The cable should come w the B80. And using one battery to chg another like this is not particularly efficient as you lose 25 percent of the B80's power by the time you use that energy out of the EB4A. I think I'd rather buy an AC180 than buy a B80.
i know this is sponsored but it is cheaper to buy a 100ah battery. i have a redodo 100ah battery hook to my eb3a for 239$. so why buy a battery pack that's not the big for 700$. there are better and cheaper batteries out there.
@TechMadeEzy No, as I see it, that's a different way to charge it. Expansion would be to add capacity to the system. The B80 automatically shuts down. Not making it part of your capacity of system. You would need to babysit it and restart B80 to charge randomly. They cheeped out on the AC180. I like bluetti more than ecoflow, but ecoflow has them beat in this category size. IMO, sorry if I sound like a snot in this reply. I just know there is a big difference between changing alternatives to actual battery expansion. 🔋
10:10 min into video you say that the AC60 & AC180 can be connected with the Expansion Cable. The AC180 does not have the ability to use the expansion cable only the DC7909. @@TechMadeEzy
I'd be the lazy traveler using the car charge cable so the B80's 12v 10a car outlet could provide just 120w to my EB3A (if the cable is capable of the full 10a), then using the same car charge cable for the B80 when I'm driving. or one of those USB-C Power Delivery trigger/sink boards, to use that usb-c PD 100w output as a 12v EB3A charger, so long as I get the polarity correct when cutting a solar charge cable to make the usb-c PD cable
It is additional capacity but yes it charges, isn’t a true expansion battery like it is for the AC60 see this video ua-cam.com/video/jGgDVr92dRE/v-deo.htmlsi=pdtFrcGxdXewrLog

I'd be the lazy traveler using the car charge cable so the B80's 12v 10a car outlet could provide just 120w to my EB3A (if the cable is capable of the full 10a), then using the same car charge cable for the B80 when I'm driving.
or one of those USB-C Power Delivery trigger/sink boards, to use that usb-c PD 100w output as a 12v EB3A charger, so long as I get the polarity correct when cutting a solar charge cable to make the usb-c PD cable
I HAVE LIKE 5 BLUETTI'S NO MORE
the service sucks here in the Philippines
@kennethlittrell2359 hi
customer service you mean?
too expincive you could buy an biger unit for 1000 plus bucks
bluetti is no longer the best bang for buck imo.
So it’s not actually an expansion battery for the EB3A but rather a charger. That’s disappointing!
It is additional capacity but yes it charges, isn’t a true expansion battery like it is for the AC60 see this video ua-cam.com/video/jGgDVr92dRE/v-deo.htmlsi=pdtFrcGxdXewrLog
You're not expanding anything. You're prolonging the Usage. You're charging a battery with another battery. If your going in your device through a dc input, you're charging not expanding. The eb3a is not expandable. Do your research
