- Lower fuel dependence
- Quiet indoor-ready backup
- Multi-source recharge by wall, car, or solar
BLUETTI renews the Dark to Green Plan with a more thoughtful goal—not to replace fuel generators, but to make them smarter. By integrating solar generators into your existing system, you get a quieter, cleaner, more reliable, and more fuel-efficient backup setup for home outages, RV life, and off-grid essentials.
How It Works
9:00 AM – 5:00PM → Generator runs, fast-charges the BLUETTI unit, while the rooftop solar panels also charge its energy storage.
6:00 PM – Next Morning → Generator off; BLUETTI provides silent power for your devices.
Hybrid Power Solution vs. Fuel Generator Only
Smarter hybrid power — less fuel, quieter, cleaner, always ready.

Basic Inputs
Advanced Settings
*Small gasoline generators commonly consume around 0.6 L/kWh at medium load.
*Include solar panel costs if applicable.
*Battery systems typically require minimal maintenance — occasional cable checks and basic cleaning.
*If powered by solar panels, charging cost = 0. If mainly charged from the grid, enter your local electricity price.

Compact Power for 4WD and Caravan Trips
This compact power station gives me the capacity I need for caravan travel, with a practical way to recharge from the car while driving. It is a great fit for powering 240V appliances from the battery setup in the rear of my 4WD.

Very reliable for outages
An extremely useful, silent, and powerful electric generator. It’s perfect for off-grid locations and as a backup during blackouts. I'm currently fine-tuning the solar charging system. Great product

Powered My Vacuum Sealer with the Elite 100 V2
We freeze dry food to take away in our motorhome and for my sister and friends. (& dog treats). Tonight I vacuum sealed 11 bags of chilli with the vacuum chamber powered by our Elite 100 v2. I’ve also powered it with the Elite 30 v2 but we were doing more tonight. Started at 91% ended at 89% .. photo of the chilli for those interested too lol. Beef, mushrooms, 🌶️ onions and kidney beans My goal is to be able to power our Freezer dryer via Bluetti.

Compact DC Charger for a Caravan Setup
I recently bought a BLUETTI Elite 300 and wanted a secure charging setup for the back of my Caravan, so it would not bounce around on outback tracks. After comparing it with other DC DC chargers in my car and caravan setup, the specs of Charger 2 made it the right choice.

BLUETTI Elite 300 + Charger 2
Very impressive
Bought this to run tools and provide power in my garage which has no direct power supply and my old EB70 struggled with some of the more demanding tools. This think is a beast and has run everything I've thrown at it so far with ease. Its not that much larger either.

Good news: testing with the Apex 300 is going well.
Today I confirmed that my condensing boiler works perfectly when powered by the Bluetti Apex 300. Even when it’s not connected to the grid and the power station outputs split-phase current, the boiler starts up without any issues. With all the other power stations I’ve tested so far, the boiler never worked under these conditions. The same goes for charging the Bluetti AC500: it never started charging from a split-phase power station, but with the Apex 300, it works. This is another strong point in favor of the Apex 300. For some, it might seem like a small detail, but during a winter blackout, it means you won’t be left in the cold — and that makes a real difference.

My Apex 300 has finally arrived
I had been eagerly waiting for it for months! Initial tests confirm that it accepts split-phase power for charging, which is great because it will be compatible with most gasoline generators. I’m really happy with it: I’ll be using it both at home and in my gas-free camper, and it will allow me to run all my appliances at the same time, like the air conditioner and the hair dryer

Apex 300
I bought this power station as my first step toward self-sufficiency. One of the key reasons I chose it was the apparent scalability of the Apex ecosystem. I’m hoping to eventually expand this into a fully self-sufficient platform. For now, I’ve configured the unit to draw power from the grid while an external solar array (which the unit isn’t directly aware of) is producing, by using the "time of use" working mode. In the coming days, I plan to connect a dedicated solar array via the PV/DC inputs to begin integrating solar more directly. Setup was relatively straightforward. However, I did run into an issue where the power station wasn’t showing up on the cloud, even though the display indicated it was connected to Wi-Fi. Resetting the Wi-Fi resolved this. The issue seemed to be related to re-routing my access point through the Apex. Since that initial hiccup, everything has been stable. By leveraging the Apex's frequent polling of power consumption, I’ve already managed to identify about 70 watts of ‘vampire’ devices. Really pleased so far.
