Bluetti Charger 2

When researching the Bluetti Charger 2, I was impressed by the claim that it could deliver up to 1200 watts to charge my AC200L. Since the Charger 2 is "compatible" with the AC200L, and states that it can provide up to 1200 watts, I also assumed that it could do so by receiving up to 1200 watts, with a comparable voltage input of up to 145 VDC and amperage input of up to 15A. As this was well within my existing solar panel capacity of 890 watts at ~86 VDC and ~10.35A, I was looking forward to having it integrated into my system. However, as you know, my hopes exceeded reality. So, now, I can use only one of my 455W panels. This can present significant limitations when I choose to be stationary and not run my engine. Of course, I could invest in a new solar array to meet the 600W maximum, but I shouldn't have to reconfigure my system around the limitations presented by this otherwise useful power hub. Basically, the Charger 2 needs to be able to accomodate up to 1200 watts of solar input and modulate that input in conjunction with the alternator input accordingly. Otherwise, it spends a majority of its time providing only half of the AC200L input capacity.

Game changer

This couldn’t be a better purchase imo. I have two B300k batteries in the back of my truck bed and now they are always charged or charging, if I remember to turn on the unit. Very happy so far, only had about 3 weeks.
