Bluetti AC240 / AC200L + D40 question

[tundydrew]

I use an AC70 with a 200w panel on the roof to power my entire van (fridge, heater, lights) I then use it to power one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08Q3ZP...=2CHH0DXCJ6JQA&psc=1&ref_=abl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it

I have it running in Power Supply Mode (switched via the app) then run it to a 6 way 12v fuse box and then to your appliance's, job done ! see below for rough layout.

200w Panel ---- AC70 PowerStation ----240v---- Victron Bluesmart 12v 30amp converter ----12v---- 6 way fuse box ---- Appliance's.

T6 - your input has been incredibly helpful. question for you. my main limitation is the lack of 12v outputs from my power unit. instead of the victron unit, can an inverter like this serve the same purpose? i am based in the US, so it would be 110v to 12v conversion here.

Hi @tundydrew, it totally depends on what 12v appliance or appliance's you are wanting to power ? if you just wanting more socket's you could use a 12v splitter if its small appliance's totalling under 120w. or you could just use a bullet connector from your PowerStation to a 12v fuse box and split the power to your lights & appliance's from there.

But if your looking for a lot more 12v power (ie: a diesel heater) you are going to need a beefier 110-12v power supply 180w minimum, there are quite a few cheap Chinese ones out there on amazon, ali express ect, but I wouldn't trust them in my campervan which is why I went with the much more expensive Victron for peace of mind.

My question is The AC240 has a 30amp output that I could wire into a fuse board and has enough power for my 12v fridge, LED’s and diesel heater etc.

for the ac240p Yes it can wire into your main board electrics on your vehicle and will be fine on your fridge also, if you are planning on using charger one it will only charge on its own while your main circuit is disconnected though. With solar charging it will be fine running your electrics while on charge. if you need any other Bluetti products check my site scot-power.co.uk . Thanks, Dave
