BLUETTI HAS RELEASED THE CHARGER 2, WHICH INTRODUCES HIGHER ALTERNATOR CHARGE RATES COMBINED WITH SOLAR CHARGING TO DELIVER UP TO 1200 OFF-GRID WATTS TO RECHARGE YOUR SOLAR GENERATOR ANYWHERE YOUR ADVENTURES TAKE YOU.

Back in April last year, Max reviewed the Bluetti Charger 1 that he combined with a Bluetti AC70 portable lithium power station. This unit was capable of recharging the AC70 at rates of up to 540W. That is nothing to be sneezed at, considering that it could recharge a 1024Wh Bluetti power station from flat to 100 per cent in about two hours. But as good as that is, the Charger 1 did have a few limitations. Its 540W of charging is not the highest on the market, and if you want to go from car charging to solar, you have to physically unplug Charger 1 from the power station and plug in your solar panel. The new Bluetti Charger 2 addresses both those issues and also introduces functionality not seen before.
