BLUETTI Elite 100 V2 Rattling Buttons

[ChestnutBrown]

I bought one of these during the Black Friday sale and have just tracked down the new rattle n the van to bring the three buttons for Power, AC and DC.

Does anyone have this model Bluetti and do your buttons rattle?

I have also bought their bag, which fits snugly, so his does resolve the issue when travelling but not if I want to use it whilst the vehicle is moving, as it needs airflow.

I bought a £20 bag/carry case off ebay for my Bluetti AC180, that has 'ear flaps' for ventilation, there must be one available for the Elite?

Interesting. I will see how much I use whilst in the move and go from there. Sticky pad or tape over each button would probably resolve things, but not ideal for a brand new unit.

It was considerably less than £20, £19.19 including shipping!
Unlike the genuine Bluetti one, it describes itself as 100% waterproof.
The Chinese are a little behind the times, it may take another 20 minutes to create the Elite version, but the quality of these is very good indeed.

I have this model and can't say that I have noticed any rattle. Always thought how solidly it was built

Cool. Can you please do me a favour and tap the buttons gently, don’t press them, and see if they rattle at all?

I had a look and there is a little movement on the button casing without actually pressing the button in. I haven't noticed it previously so don't think it's a 'big rattle'. The button casing only seemed to move with touch. I wiggled the unit and there wasn't any rattle

That’s the strange thing, I discounted it as being the rattle as I have no noise when I pick up the Bluetti and gently shake it. The noise comes if you tap the surface that the Bluetti is sat on. In my case either the standard rear rubber floor or the drawer of my Ovano even when sat on the rubber liner.

It’s rather annoying when your droving along, with the shocking stare of UK roads!
