Very impressed so far with this…
Very impressed so far with this product; the unit (Elite 100 v2) and the support in place through official forums, sites and Facebook groups, seems excellent. Have had a positive experience over this hot period in the UK, with a tower fan running constantly at 60w draw for over 14 hours in our lounge, together with charging 2 mobile devices from flat to 100%. This was a test to see how much energy I could get before using the device on the road in our motorhome. I have also tested the Bluetti 100w solar panel I purchased with it, charging up from 87% to 100% in a little under 2 hours in bright sunshine. I'm okay with that, as our use each day will be quite small (mobile devices/coffee machine, fan, 12v 4g router). I have also purchased the vehicle adaptor lead to charge from our 12v/120w cigarette plug socket whilst on the road, although reviews suggest I should also invest in a Bluetti Charger 1. However, I purchased the device for the excellent value, and it doesn't feel such good value if I then have to rely on a Charger 1 to get the best out of it. I am hopeful that, with the 100w solar panel, and the ability to recharge every few days on campsite electric hook up, together with the charging on the move, this will be sufficient for our immediate daily needs. Ideally, I want to make the device pay for itself over the long term. Will just have to see how reliable it is. Customer Support seems excellent from what I have already seen on the various social media sites, and the 5 year warranty gives added piece of mind. Will provide another review after a year or so of use in real world scenarios both in summer and winter.
