Ultimate Plug-N-Play
|
#1: Point Zero TitanMSRP: Starting at $2,999If you want a long-lasting, powerful system that can be scaled in the future, buy the Titan. It has everything, and it's cheaper than building your own system.
Use the Titan to power a cabin, tiny home, RV, boat or home back up. Once you buy the Titan, you are set! It is a fully capable off-grid solar system. Battery Size: 2,000-10,000Wh!
Max Solar Input: 1000W per battery Max AC Charge Rate: 1,200W Inverter Output: 3000W Continuous | 6,000W Peak 10sec. Outputs: 6x AC, 4x cigarette lighter, 8x USB, anderson powerpoles, 1x Cigarette lighter Weight: 67 pounds + 35 pounds for each additional add-on battery Battery Life Expectancy: 2,000 cycles Expand-ability: Stack multiple batteries! Make it as large as you want. (it is heavy, so ensure the mounting location can handle the weight) MSRP: $2,999 for 1x Titan and 1X Battery Combo Kit Click Here to buy the Titan and 1x 2000Wh battery now Second Supplier for the Titan, click here Click here to order 2,000Wh Titan battery expansion module Click Here to see Titan Packages w/ Solar Panels |
Long Lasting, Dependable and Efficient
#2 Maxoak BluettiMSRP: $1,147- $1,650The bluetti is the best choice for long term, daily use with a small solar panel array. The cells are rated for 2,000+ cycles! (compared to only 800 cycles for the ecoflow delta). The biggest downside is the inverter size. If your loads are under 1000W, and you have a limited budget, this is the generator for you.
This model just works! I have not been able to kill one, and everyone who buys it, loves it. It is very dependable and can last for ages. The bluetti is perfect for RV and Van dwellers, who need power 24/7 for many years. Battery Size: 1,500/2,400 watt hours
Max Solar Input: 500W Max AC Charge Rate: 168W Inverter Output: 1000 watts Pure Sine Wave (900w continuous in my tests) Outputs: 2x AC, 4x USB, 1x USB-C, 1x Cigarette lighter Weight: 37.9-47 Pounds Battery Life Expectancy: 2500 cycles Expand-ability: None Click Here to buy the 1500Wh Bluetti Direct (or on amazon by clicking here) Click Here to buy the 2400Wh Bluetti Direct (or on amazon by clicking here) |
Lightweight and Powerful
#3 Ecoflow DeltaMSRP: $1,399The ecoflow delta is small and extremely powerful. It is not very efficient, but for the price, you cannot beat the output. I would not use the delta for daily use with solar. You should get the bluetti instead.
The delta is perfect for weekend warriors or people who need power when camping. It charges faster than any other generator on the market (5x as fast!) and can power nearly any load you throw at it. This is my favorite model by ecoflow. I do NOT recommend using their other models. I have had numerous problems with their other models, but not the delta. Battery Size: 1,298 watt hours
Max Solar Input: 400W Max AC Charge Rate: 1,200W! Inverter Output: 1800 watts Pure Sine Wave Outputs: regulated 12v and USB/USB-C Weight: 30 pounds Battery Life Expectancy: 800 cycles to 60% capacity Expand-ability: Can be chained together for increased capacity |
Best Value (lowest Quality)
#4 Bluetti AC200PMSRP: $1,999Update: I still love mine, but people are reporting issues with the AC200P. Most work great, but you should be aware of the problems people are having with this unit by clicking here
I have 3 of these units, and I have never had a problem. What I am thinking is that the first production run is plagued with issues. I would wait until mid 2020 to buy one to be on the safe side. This has everything! Great input and output, high quality cells, high input voltage, high efficiency. Pretty much everything you need for a small off-grid solar power system. Perfect for RV's or cabins.
Battery Size: 2,000 watt hours
Max Solar Input: 700W Max AC Charge Rate: 800W Inverter Output: 2000 watts Pure Sine Wave (900w continuous in my tests) Outputs: 6x AC, 4x USB, 2X wireless chargers, 1x Cigarette lighter, 12VDC Anderson Weight: 52.5 Pounds Battery Life Expectancy: 2000 cycles Expand-ability: None Click Here to Buy Now (has been out of stock intermittently due to supplier issues) Click here to see if amazon has any in stock |

The Point Zero Titan
Specifications
Battery specs For each battery:
Battery Voltage: 29.4V (only charged to 29.2)
Battery capacity: 74ah (usable) 2000 watt hours (usable)
Maximum charge current: 40A (approximately 1000 watts)
Maximum continuous Discharge: 100A (approximately 2500 watts)
Suggested continuous Discharge (for long life): 1500 watts
Maximum surge discharge current (10 seconds or less): 300A (approximately 7700 watts )

Car port charging: 150 watts
Number of outlets: 6-15A, and one 30A RV outlet
USB Ports: 6 smart USB, 2 USB C
12V ports: 4 – regulated at 13.8V (20A each with a maximum of 20A total)

Dimensions: 18.5x12x12 (battery and Power module together)
1- The battery is removable and expandable. This innovative approach will give you greater portability and flexibility in what you can power with your solar generator. By simply adding more battery packs you can expand or replace your batteries quickly and easily. By separating the battery from the other components, you can easily carry each component.
2- The 2000 watt hour lithium battery is one of the largest available in solar generators. It is about twice the capacity of similar systems, with a life span of 10 years.
3- The 3000 watt pure sine wave inverter is extremely powerful- twice as powerful as comparable solar generators. However, it is extremely efficient with a no load power draw of as low as 5 watts, and efficiencies up to 92%! Generally, the larger the inverter the more power it uses just to run- like a large truck burns more gas than a small car. This is comparable to having a 500 hp race car getting better fuel mileage than a geo metro.
4- With the Titan, we only used quality, reliable components. For example, most solar generators use cheap, low quality charge controllers that cannot step the voltage down to produce high amps. Most don’t allow for voltages over 30-50 volts. The Titan on the other hand, can take up to 145 volts. This means your solar panel wires will have very low amps running through them making them much more efficient (they will be cool to the touch where others will be very hot). It also makes wiring up your solar panels much easier and safer.
5- With the Titan we will include one powerful AC charger that will charge your battery pack in around 4 hours (other systems take up to 24 hours). You can also add a second charger to double the charging power (for when you have more than one battery).
