A7: Plug it to a 30A wall socket with the 30A AC charging cable*.* Sold separately.
Q9: Can I use my solar roof to charge the EP500Pro?
A9: Yes, but please note your solar roof should have:
1. NO micro-inverter
2. an open-circuit voltage of 12-150V
3. MC4 connectorsHowever, when the OCV falls in 150-550V, you can also use BLUETTI D300S* to step down the voltage and achieve solar charging.
* Sold separately.
Q10: Can I connect two EP500Pro together for more power (240V Split Phase Bonding)?
A10 :Yes. With the Fusion Box (P030A), you can connect two EP500Pro in series for 240V/6,000W output
Q11: Can EP500Pro connect with EP500?
A11: No. Only EP500 to EP500, or EP500Pro to EP500Pro is acceptable.
Q12: Can it charge and discharge at the same time?
A12: Yes
Q13: How do I know whether my appliance can work well with the EP500Pro?
A13: Calculate the total wattage of your devices. EP500Pro should work if the load doesn't exceed its rated 3,000W.
Q14: How long can it run my device?
A14: Running time = Battery capacity × DoD × η ÷ Device rated power
DoD refers to Depth of Discharge and η is local inverter efficiency.
For EP500Pro, both DoD and η are 90%. If you run a 1,000W microwave oven with it, the running time will be:
5,100Wh × 90% × 90% ÷ 1,000W ≈ 4.1hrs Note:
1) The formula is NOT suitable for inductive loads with compressors, like refrigerator, air conditioner, etc.
2) The above data is for reference ONLY.
Q15: Is the EP500Pro power station waterproof?
A15: No. Also, please do NOT store it in a humid environment for a long time.
Q16: When I keep the power plugged in, will EP500Pro stop charging automatically when fully charged?
A16: Yes. And when the SOC is less than 100%, EP500Pro will automatically charge again without damage to the battery
Q17: Is it possible to replace the built-in battery?
A: No. If the internal battery pack is faulty or even dead, please contact BLUETTI Customer Service.
Q18: How is it different from the EP500?
A18: The main differences are:
1) Output power : 3,000W AC power for EP500Pro, while 2,000W for EP500.
2) Solar Input: 2,400W for EP500Pro, while 1,200W for EP500.
3) AC Input:3,000W for EP500Pro, while 600W for EP500.
4) Output Port: EP500Pro has one more 100W USB-C port and 1 NEMA L14-30 port.
5) Recharging: EP500Pro supports charging from car cigarette lighter and lead-acid battery, while EP500 doesn't.
Q19: How is it different from the AC300?
A19; The main differences are: 1) Battery: AC300 has no built-in battery and must work with B300, while EP500Pro connects with B300 only for capacity expansion. 2) 30A AC Output: EP500Pro has an L14-30 port while AC300 has a TT-30 port. 3) Maximum Input: 5,400W for AC300 with two B300, 3,000W with one B300, while 4,000W for EP500Pro. 4) Weight and Dimensions: AC300 is smaller.
