BLUETTI Power stations – Minivan – Pickup – SUV

To choose the right power station, consider:

1. The available space
Where you plan to place your power station inside your vehicle.

2. The charging capacity you need (Watts / hours)

Here is the typical consumption of the most common devices used by most travelers:

12V refrigerator:
≈ 20–80 W/h depending on the model and outside temperature
(C15, C30, C40 ≈ 45 W | R85 ≈ 80 W)
Laptop: ≈ 30 W/h
Cell phone: ≈ 10 W/h
Camera: ≈ 10 W/h

To choose correctly, simply multiply each device’s consumption by the number of hours of use per day.

SCENARIO: 2 travelers in a Roadloft Minivan

Usage over 24 hours:
Refrigerator C40: 24 h × 20 W = 480 W/h
2 cell phones: 2 × 10 W/h = 20 W/h
1 laptop: 30 W/h

Total daily consumption: 530 W/h
You’ll need a battery with at least 530 W/h capacity for a full day without recharging.

3. Required power output (maximum Watts)

Check the most demanding device you plan to use.

Examples:

Microwave 1000 W → The battery must provide at least 1000 W output

Kettle 800 W → Battery must supply 800 W continuously

4. Charging speed

Bluetti stations are among the fastest on the market, often allowing a full recharge in 1 to 2 hours, depending on the model.

5. Charging methods

Bluetti power stations support:

• 110V (AC) – wall outlet (up to 3840 W/h)
• 12V (DC) – your vehicle’s car socket (120 W/h)
• Solar charging – with compatible solar panels (depends on panel wattage)
• Charging from the vehicle alternator – connected to the vehicle battery with the Charger 1 (560 W/h)
  (Exclusive to Apex 300) Charging possible at EV charging stations (3840 W/h)
