Specs side by side
| Spec | BLUETTI Apex 300 | BLUETTI Elite 200 V2 |
|---|---|---|
| Rated capacity | 2,764.8 Wh[source]US manual V1.0 spec table: 'Battery Capacity 2,764.8Wh (51.2V/54Ah)'. | 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) | Not publishedNo independent measured capacity found (searched 2026-10-19). The Solar Lab gives only about 85% efficiency, ESS News gives no Wh figure, and CleanTechnica's test page did not load. A Bikman Tech figure (41 minutes at 3,840 W) comes from a retailer blog without a Wh result. | 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 | 3,840 W[source]Manual spec table: 4 x NEMA 5-20R '3,840W Max.'; the NEMA 14-50R '3840W Max.'; the TT-30R '3600W Max.'. In 240 V mode the 5-20R outlets are limited to '16A Max. each port (Every Two Ports: 1920W Max.)'. | 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 | Not publishedNo surge rating in the US manual or on the US product page (searched 2026-10-19). The page's '7,680W Lifting Power' is Power Lifting mode, which the manual says is for 'pure resistive loads like kettles, electric blankets, hairdryers'. BLUETTI's Amazon title calls 7,680 W a surge, but Amazon is not used as a source. | 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 | Yes[source]A single unit outputs 120/240 V split phase: the NEMA 14-50R in 'Output (Voltage Selector: 240V)' mode gives '(Discharge Only): 120V/240V 50/60Hz, 16A Max.' and '(Bypass Mode): 120V/240V 50/60Hz, 50A Max.' The product page says 'power both 120V and 240V devices simultaneously'. The 5-20R and TT-30R outlets stay 120 V. | No[source]Manual spec table: AC output '2,600W in total, 120V, 21.6A'. No 240 V output. |
| Battery chemistry | LiFePO4[source]Manual spec table: 'Battery Type LiFePO4'. | LiFePO4[source]Manual spec table: 'Battery Type LiFePO4'. |
| Cycle life | 6,000 cycles to 80% capacity[source]Product page: 'With the EnerBalance AI system, enjoy up to 6,000 cycles with 80% capacity retention.' | 6,000+ cycles to 80% capacity[source]Official FAQ Q16: 'With a cycle life of over 6,000 cycles (maintaining 80% capacity)'. |
| AC charging | 3,840 W[source]Manual spec table: 'AC Charging 3,840W Max. (80% in 45 mins ...)'. The standard 'AC charging input port' is limited to '120V ... 15A Max. 1,800W Max. (Charging + Bypass)'. 3,840 W Turbo charging needs the P050A input with the optional TT-30P or L14-50P cable. FAQ: Standard up to 1,440 W, Silent up to 500 W. | 1,800 W[source]Manual spec table: 'AC Charging 1,800W Max., 120V, 15A Max., 50Hz / 60Hz (80% in 1 hr, 100% in 1.4 hrs ...)' and 'AC Input 1,800W Max. (Charging + Bypass)'. AC + DC together: '2,400W Max.' |
| Max solar input | 2,400 W[source]Official FAQ Q9: 'Direct input via 2 XT60 ports Each input port supports up to 1,200W (12V-60V*, 20A Max.), totaling 2,400W.' The optional SolarX 4K adds high-voltage input (500 V max) for up to 6,400 W in total. | 1,000 W[source]Manual spec table: 'DC Input (XT60PM-M) 1,000W Max., 12V to 60V, 20A Max.' |
| Expandable | Yes[source]Manual section 9: 'Use the battery expansion cables to connect to up to 6 B300K batteries'. The manual also says it 'is compatible with both B300 and B300S battery packs'. | No[source]Official FAQ Q2: 'The Elite 200 V2 itself is not expandable and does not support power bank mode.' |
| UPS / EPS switchover | 20 ms[source]Manual section 7: switches 'within 0 ms or 20ms with specific outlets'. Note: 'When the output voltage switches to 120V, both are 20ms.' 0 ms applies only in 240 V mode on the two left 5-20R outlets, with the grid connected through the 15 A AC input. The product page advertises '0ms UPS switchover'. The general 20 ms figure is used. | 15 ms[source]Manual spec table: 'Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Switchover Time 15 ms'. The product page FAQ says 'Yes. within 15ms.' |
| Weight | 83.78 lb[source]Manual spec table: 'About 38kg (83.78lbs)'. | 53.4 lb[source]Product page comparison table: '53.4lbs（24.2kg）'. The manual says '24.2kg (53.35lbs)'. |
| Warranty | Not publishedNot stated on the US product page, US support page or US manual (searched 2026-10-19). The US warranty policy only says portable power stations get '24 months to 72 months'. BLUETTI's Australian page lists a 5-year warranty, but that is not a US source. | 5 years[source]Product page: 'Enjoy a 5-year warranty and dedicated customer support'. |
| List price | $1,699[source]Regular (strikethrough) price $1,699.00, sale price $1,499.00 (US$200 off), seen 2026-10-19, in stock. An Apex 300 + B300K bundle is offered at $2,599. | $899[source]US$899.00 for the standalone unit, seen 2026-10-19. No compare-at or sale price is shown for the unit alone (store data lists 899 as both price and list price), and it is in stock.

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.
