Why would you buy this over a Bluetti AC70?
You wouldn't - this EcoFlow is a bad deal
The Bluetti AC70 is $776 with MSJAN17 and GCX 5% off gift cards
$100 cheaper and more importantly, Bluetti has the better 1000W AC inverter compared to the 800W on this River 2 Pro
This is a 1600w inverter?
How do these two compare with the VTOMAN FlashSpeed 1500, with twice the capacity at 1548Wh, AC output 1,500W (surge 3,000W), now $1,096 (after MSJAN17 + GCX 5% off gift cards) (See ebay https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285478972629)?
The VTOMAN costs $320 more than the Bluetti, but has twice the capacity. The unknown is that it's a relatively new brand (I think), so we don't know much about longevity, but the online reviews have been very good. A potential minus: this VTOMAN accepts input only from high-voltage solar panels (30V - 60V), whereas Bluetti AC70 accepts a broader range of panels (from 12V to 58V)—-most camping-type foldable panels are only 12-18V, so that's a bummer, and higher voltage panels cost a lot more, from what I can tell.
Anyway, would be interesting to compare these.
Suggest solar panels?
Can you connect this backup power bank to main board?
If yes, how do you do it?You'll need to engage a qualified sparky to install an isolating circuit breaker with an interlock.
If you just get a male to make lead and plug it into an outlet, you'll back energise(ie, pp2r.goes from your house and is stepped up towards the fault) the LV and then HV circuits, and kill the poor liney trying to fix the network.
I always wondered about this -> how would this thing sync the sine wave from the grid though?
This is assuming you are using this device during a fault.
During a fault, you are not connected to the grid. Either a conductor has hit the ground, or some protection has operated. Either way, you don't have power. Thus, it is an islanded network, and does not need to synchronize.
Can I switch off the main power in the box and plug lead into wall socket and make it works like a close circuit inside home?
You can do that, however I would caution against that for several reasons.
- it requires manual change over, thus is able to fail
- it will only provide power to one circuit (ie, no lights, just the kitchen or lounge room)
- it is dangerous to you, as it requires a male to male lead
- it is dangerous to the liney repairing your line.
To do it safely (and legally), you require a changeover switch to be installed by a sparky. Call your local distribution company for more information.
Unless you live in a particularly rural area or heavily wooded area, generally outages are minimised, and the network can switch around it relatively easily.
I just bought one Pro there is still 9 pro's and 8 Max available for the same price Pro makes more sense with 800W vs 500W and 768Wh vs 512Wh approximately 64Ah vs 42Ah.
