Specs
| Rated capacity | 1,152 Wh[source]AC180 is 1,152 Wh; the AC180P (1,440 Wh) on the same page is a different variant. OutdoorGearLab notes BLUETTI has released the Elite 100 v2 as the AC180's successor. |
|---|---|
| Usable capacity (AC) | 950 Wh[source]OutdoorGearLab measured 950 Wh at 80% load (82%). StorageReview measured 1,030 Wh at a 350 W load; the lower figure is used. |
| Battery chemistry | LiFePO4[source] |
| AC continuous output | 1,800 W[source]4 x 120V/15A, 1800W in total. |
| AC surge output | 2,700 W[source]Spec table 'Surge Power: 2700W'; the manual also says it 'can handle a surge of 2700W'. The same 2,700 W figure is used for Power Lifting Mode, which only applies to resistive heating loads. |
| AC outlets | 4[source] |
| UPS / EPS switchover | 20 ms[source]Official user manual: 'Switching time 20ms'; Grid Enhancement mode must be off for UPS use. The product page does not state it. |
| Expandable | No[source]Official FAQ: 'the AC180 doesn't support capacity expansion with B80, B230, or B300 batteries'; they can only charge it through Power Bank Mode. The page description's 'up to 4,224Wh' wording refers to that charging, not true expansion. |
| Max expanded capacity | Not publishedNot expandable. |
| AC charging | 1,440 W[source]Turbo mode 1440 W (enabled in the app); standard mode 1000 W max. |
| Max solar input | 500 W[source]500W Max., VOC 12-60VDC, 10A. |
| Cycle life | 3,500+ cycles to 80% original capacity[source] |
| Weight | 35.3 lb[source]Spec table: 'About 16kg / 35.27lbs'. Official figures conflict: the same page's description says 37 lb / 17 kg and the user manual says 36.16 lb / 16.4 kg. |
| Warranty | 5 years[source] |
| Idle draw | Not publishedno independent test found. BLUETTI's own manual states self-consumption of about 15 W, which is not an independent measurement. |
