Specs
| Rated capacity | 1,024 Wh[source]Source noteManual V5.1 spec table: 'Battery Capacity 1,024Wh (20Ah)'. The product page comparison table agrees. |
|---|---|
| Usable capacity (AC) | 890 Wh[source]Source noteOutdoorGearLab measured '890 Wh out of its advertised 1,024 Wh' (87%). The test load is not stated. TechReviewer.de (apparently the 230 V EU unit) drew 946 Wh at a constant 500 W load and says usable capacity falls to about 80% at loads in the tens of watts. The lower figure is used. |
| Battery chemistry | LiFePO4[source]Source noteManual spec table: 'Battery Type LiFePO4'. |
| AC continuous output | 1,800 W[source]Source noteManual spec table: 'AC Output 1,800W Max., 120V, 15A Max., 50Hz / 60Hz'. Power Lifting mode runs resistive loads up to 2,700 W. |
| AC surge output | 3,600 W[source]Source noteOfficial FAQ A4: '1,800W continuous AC output, 2,700W lifing power, and up to 3,600W surge with HyperVolt™'. The page meta description also says 'surge 3600W'. The US manual spec table gives no surge figure. |
| AC outlets | 4[source]Source noteManual section 3.1 overview diagram shows four AC outlets (item 5 'AC Outlets'). That matches the product page's '11 ports': 4 AC + 7 DC (1 cigarette lighter, 2 DC5521, 2 USB-A, 2 USB-C) per the manual spec table. Neither page nor manual gives the AC count in words. |
| UPS / EPS switchover | 10 ms[source]Source noteManual spec table: 'Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Switchover Time 10 ms'. The product page says '10ms UPS Backup' and the comparison table '≤10 ms'. |
| Expandable | No[source]Source noteNo expansion battery port. Official FAQ A18 says B80 batteries can be connected with an 'Aviation to XT60' cable, but only in the B80's 'Power Bank Mode', which charges the unit through its DC input rather than adding capacity. |
| Max expanded capacity | Not publishedSource noteNot expandable (B80 only charges it in Power Bank Mode). |
| AC charging | 1,200 W[source]Source noteManual spec table: 'AC Charging 1,200W Max. (80% in 45 mins @25°C / 77°F)'; 'AC Input 1,800W Max. (Charging + Bypass)'; 'AC + DC Charging 1,200W Max.' |
| Max solar input | 1,000 W[source]Source noteManual spec table: 'DC Input 1,000W Max., 12V-60V, 20A Max.' Note that AC + DC charging together is still capped at 1,200 W. |
| Cycle life | 4,000+ cycles to 80% capacity[source]Source noteProduct page comparison table: '4,000+ Cycles to 80% Original Capacity'. |
| Weight | 25.3 lb[source]Source noteManual spec table: 'About 11.5kg (25.3lbs)'. The product page FAQ also says '25.3lbs(11.5kg )'; its comparison table rounds to '11.5kg (25lbs)'. |
| Warranty | 5 years[source]Source noteOfficial FAQ A7: 'it comes with a 5-year warranty'. |
| Idle draw | 16 W[source]Source noteThe Solar Lab: 'We calculated the unit's idle power draw at right around 16W with the AC inverter on and no load connected.' That is the reviewer's calculation, not a direct meter reading. BLUETTI's manual figure of 'about 10W' is not independent. |
| List price | $499[source]Source noteUS$499.00 for the standalone unit, seen 2026-10-19. No compare-at price is shown (store data lists 499 as both price and list price), and it is in stock. A 'Bio-based' shell variant is shown at $499 against $699. |

Runtime = 890 Wh usable (independently measured) ÷ the appliance's average draw. Fridges and freezers average their daily energy use; everything else counts as running the whole time. "No" means the load exceeds this model's continuous output or surge rating. Methodology.
Recharge with solar
Solar input: 12–60 V, 20 A, up to 1,000 W (XT60).The manual lists an optional 'Solar Charging Cable MC4 to XT60' and a 'Cig lighter plug to XT60-F' car cable for the DC input. The spec table does not name the socket type.The manual overview shows a single 'DC Input' (item 14), used for solar and car charging. Panels that fit, fastest first, one panel at a time; days use Dallas, TX's sun (5.4 peak hours a day on average, 4.37 in December). Two or more panels charge faster, up to this station's 1,000 W input limit.

Real-world watts = panel rating capped by this input's current limit (× the panel's voltage at max power) and maximum solar input, × 75%. Peak-sun hours to full = rated capacity (1,024 Wh, since charging fills the whole battery) ÷ real-world watts; days = those hours ÷ peak sun hours per day. Sunnier and cloudier cities are on each panel's page; full method in the methodology.
The BLUETTI Elite 100 V2 doesn't take an expansion battery. None of the BLUETTI batteries we track (B210 Expansion Battery, B230 Expansion Battery, B300 Expansion Battery, B300K Expansion Battery, B500K Expansion Battery) work with it.
