|---|---|---|
| Rated capacity | 2,048 Wh[source]Spec table: 'Battery Capacity 2,048Wh (51.2V, 40Ah)'. BLUETTI's site menu links to this page. A second US handle (/products/ac200l) has the same title but shows no spec content. | 2,073.6 Wh[source]Manual V2.0 spec table: 'Battery Capacity 2,073.6Wh (54Ah)'. The product page comparison table agrees: '2,073.6Wh (54 Ah)'. |
| Usable capacity (measured) | 1,680 Wh[source]nextpit.de (EU 230 V unit) measured 2,217 Wh in and 1.68 kWh usable. Trusted Reviews (UK 230 V unit) measured 1.77 kWh at about 2.4 kW, 1.9 kWh at 1,050 W and 1.76 kWh at 200 W. The lower figure is used. No US 120 V discharge test was found. | 1,880 Wh[source]Trusted Reviews (UK 230 V unit) measured 'a minimum output of 1.88kWh when providing 200W'. It got the same 1.88 kWh from USB-C at 60 W, and its best AC efficiency (96.7%) was at 1,000 W. StorageReview (US 120 V unit, four NEMA 5-20 outlets) reported 'The unit discharged 1.91 kWh' but did not give the load. The lower figure is used. |
| AC continuous output | 2,400 W[source]'4 x 120V/20A Outlets, 1 x 120V/30A NEMA TT-30, 2,400W In Total'. Power Lifting mode runs resistive loads up to 3,600 W. | 2,600 W[source]Manual spec table: AC Output '2,600W in total, 120V, 21.6A, 50Hz / 60Hz'. Power Lifting mode runs pure resistive loads 'up to 3,900W'. |
| AC surge output | 3,600 W[source]Spec table: 'Surge Power: 3,600W'. The official manual V3.0 gives an overload table instead: 2,520-3,000W for 2 min, 3,000-3,600W for 5 s, >3,600W for 0.5 s. | Not publishedNot stated in the US manual or on the US product page (searched 2026-10-19). The only higher figure is Power Lifting mode, 'up to 3,900W' for pure resistive loads, which is not a surge rating. The Solar Lab reports the unit sustained about 3,000 W for over 2 minutes, but that is a review figure, not an official spec. |
| 240 V output | No[source]Outlets are 120 V only ('4 x 120V/20A Outlets, 1 x 120V/30A NEMA TT-30'); the manual lists AC output 'Voltage 120VAC'. Official FAQ: 'Can I connect two AC200L units together for 240V Split Phase Bonding?' 'No.' | No[source]Manual spec table: AC output '2,600W in total, 120V, 21.6A'. No 240 V output. |

Runtime = usable capacity ÷ average draw, the same formula for both models (no idle draw added to either), after checking continuous output and startup surge. Usable capacity is an independent test's measured figure, or 80% of rated where none exists. See the methodology.
