Bluetti AC200P review | 2000W portable power station, 2000Wh LiFePO4 battery | 700W solar charging

The AC200P from Bluetti, or PowerOak in the UK is the most powerful portable power station I’ve tested so far. It has a massive 2000Wh Lithium Iron Phosphate battery and a 2000W AC inverter that can power large power hungry devices like heaters, coffee machines, mitre saws and even an electric lawn mower. Or it can power smaller items for hours on end.

These power stations are perfect for power cuts, camping, travel and festivals and the AC200P can charge at up to 700W off solar panels alone when mains isn’t available.

These things aren’t cheap - you can see the current price if you follow the link down below. But I’ll run through its capabilities and thoroughly test all its claims to help you decide if this is the right power station for you.
