In this video, we put the BLUETTI EP800 inverter and B500 battery system to the test! Watch as we power various devices in our barn and shop, including tools and equipment, to see how well the system handles real-world demands. But the ultimate test came when the grid unexpectedly went down for 3.5 days! We relied completely on the BLUETTI setup to keep everything running, ensuring our animals were cared for and the essentials stayed powered. If you’re curious about how this system performs in off-grid situations, stay tuned for our in-depth review and hands-on results.
