Usability

6.1 out of 10

It stores 2,764.8 Wh, under the 3,000 Wh floor of the home tier's scale, so it scores 1 on capacity.

Its inverter supplies 3,840 W continuous at 120/240 V from one unit, so it scores 5 on power output.

BLUETTI states 45 minutes to 80 percent and 65 minutes to full on its fast AC input, and two inputs take 2,400 W of solar, so it scores 8 on recharging.

BLUETTI rates the cells for 6,000 cycles to 80 percent capacity, so it scores 10 on battery life.

It holds two outlets at 0 ms, takes six B500K batteries to 33.5 kWh per unit and works with BLUETTI's AT1 Smart Distribution Panel, so it scores 10 on backup readiness.

Intertek lists it to UL 2743 by model under the ETL mark, but no UL 9540 system listing names it, so it scores 6 on verification.

BLUETTI's policy gives it 5 years, so it scores 8 on warranty and support.

Warranty and returns

Its warranty runs 5 years on most current stations and 3 years on the Elite 100 mini and Pioneer Na, with returns within 30 days.

240 V and A 0 ms UPS from one box

The Apex 300 is BLUETTI's 2.8 kWh LiFePO4 home backup station with 120/240 V split-phase output from one unit, an 83.8 lb box without wheels.

Verdict

It suits a buyer who wants 240 V circuits through a transfer panel now and plans to add batteries later.

Apex 300 owners in r/bluetti, a community that links BLUETTI's official stores, describe full-time van use on 800 W of roof solar (April 2026) and a three-day outage run through a transfer panel with a B500K, with laggy app data (January 2026).

PCMag measured 87 to 89 percent usable capacity from the AC inverter, praised quiet running under heavy sustained loads and 240 V output while charging from 120 V, and faulted the 60 V limit on the built-in solar inputs (May 2026). TheSolarLab, which earns affiliate commission and carries a BLUETTI discount code, measured about 85 percent efficiency and 20 W idle draw, and faulted ticket-only support and overstated solar figures (September 2026). CleanTechnica, writing with affiliate links, ran EV charging and power tools on it with a B300K (June 2026).

We compare products properly: every one scored against published criteria, with what independent sources actually say kept separate from our own assessment.

The method is published so you can see what a score means. Where evidence is missing, the page says so rather than showing an invented number.
