24/7 UPS – Added Peace of Mind

Given the Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) system, there’s no need to worry about losing data or hardware damage in the event of a power outage since it can automatically detect the blackout the moment it occurs and provide power as soon as 20ms that no one can even be aware of. It actually matters a lot, especially for those who live in rural areas where power failure happens now and again.

BLUETTI App – Monitor And Control at Fingertips

With the BLUETTI App, you can remotely control the AC500 power station at home at any time with just a cell phone. Making it easy and convenient to power it on and off, check the SOC (state of charge), and OTA update the firmware to the latest version from merely the palm of your hand.

  2. Julie, why didn’t they double the 240v combiner in series of the AC500’s to 10000watts, but left it at 6000watts like the old AC300’s?
