It stores enough energy to run a fridge, lights, Wi-Fi and the kettle through a long NZ outage, and its two 230V outlets deliver 2600W of continuous power with a 5200W surge for hard-starting appliances. At 39kg it is a heavy unit, so BLUETTI fits it with a telescopic handle, wheels and side carry handles; one person can wheel it from the garage to the car boot.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eCharging is flexible.

A 15ms UPS switchover keeps connected essentials running when the power cuts out, and the BLUETTI app manages it all over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

Solar alone takes up to 1000W for a full charge in around 6 hours of good sun, and AC plus solar together reach 3300W, which BLUETTI rates at 80% in one hour. Real-world times vary with sunlight and temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"hb21-faq-item\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use my own solar panels with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Elite 400 accepts third-party panels with an open-circuit voltage between 12V and 60V and MC4 connectors, up to 1000W of input. Avoid mixing different panel types in one array.

The Elite 400 supports pass-through charging, so it can refill from the wall or solar while its outlets keep your devices running. That is how it works as backup: it sits charged and connected, and takes over in 15ms when the grid drops.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"hb21-faq-item\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it work with the BLUETTI app?\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
