We’re still in the season of outdoor camping adventures and will soon be in the season of standing around in a parking lot outside of a football drinking beers and eating grilled food with your buds. Oddly enough, both of these activities are heightened with the help of a portable power station. Bluetti’s Elite 100 V2 is an excellent option and right now Amazon has it on sale for a good 44% off. Typically you’d find this big battery selling for $899, but the discount ends up taking the price down to just $449. That saves you a whole $450 for a limited time.
The Bluetti Elite 100 V2 holds a whopping 1,024Wh capacity and is capable of 1800W AC output. It can power your blender, coffee maker, TV, and so much more. The power station can even run multiple appliances simultaneously. It houses 11 separate ports, meaning you can charge or power up to 11 devices at once.
Of these ports, the Bluetti power station contains four AC outlets, each capable of 1800W max, two USB-A ports at 15W max, two USB-C ports with one able to do 140W max while the other 100W max, two DC5521 ports capable of 12V or 8A max, and a standard car port capable of 12V or 10A max.
Camping and Home Backup Power
With this much capacity and power output, you’ll be able to sustain your camping needs anywhere from one to three days. It can power lights for just under 52 hours, an ice maker for just shy of four hours, or a hair dryer or oven for just around a half hour. While it outputs at 1800W by default, with power lifting you can push that to 2700W. That also makes the power station a great option to keep charged at home in the event of a power outage.
When it comes time to recharge the power station, the Bluetti Elite 100 V2 is able to get back from nothing up to full charge in roughly 70 minutes. You can charge it over 1200W TurboBoost AC power or set it up with a solar panel to generate power at 100W. That’ll let your extend your camping trip for even longer. You can also charge even faster, up to six times so, with the optional Bluetti Charger 1 accessory.
This second-generation model of the Bluetti Elite 100 has seen a few design changes. Primarily, it is both lighter by 30% and smaller by 35%. This power station was already a pretty portable choice, but now it’s even easier to take around with you.
