Reply to "New Camping “Essential”: Bluetti AC180 Power Station"

I have been looking at one of these, but for a completely different use case:

I have 800w of solar and a 3000w inverter already seamlessly integrated into my trailer. I have learned (several times) that I get too cocky with power, and have killed the batteries a few times.

Currently I can use my F150's pro-power panel to plug the trailer in and get things restarted. It's basically a fancy generator. When I get my F350 diesel though, I'm not going to want to have that thing idling just to power my trailer.

So I'm considering getting one of these as sort of like a water or fuel jerry can, but for power. Keep it in the truck plugged into the bed outlet, it'll charge on drive days if needed. And if for some reason I do something stupid, I may not have a generator but I do have a block of energy I can use until I get my house batteries restored. (And like a jerry can, useful in other situations away from the trailer.)
