The Bluetti Apex 300 is a home-backup-class power station with 2,764.8Wh, 3,840W of output and a modular expansion system. It is about 84 lb. PCMag called it one of the most capable portable power platforms currently available, Popular Mechanics called its app near-perfect, and Trusted Reviews called its upgradeability ridiculous. PCMag lists a $1,699 MSRP. Check today’s price.
Who the Apex 300 is for (and who should skip it)
Popular Mechanics said it sits between a portable station and a dedicated home backup system. PCMag stressed the 120V/240V capability and whole-home backup expansion. Trusted Reviews said it is suited to a home or camper van, but “portable” is doing heavy lifting.
Skip it if:
- You want something to carry. It weighs about 84 lb (PCMag, Popular Mechanics).
- You want USB ports out of the box. The DC hub is an optional extra. See the Elite 300 for a unit with USB ports built in.
- You only need 1 to 2 kWh. See Anker SOLIX C1000.
Output, capacity and efficiency
PCMag sustained outputs above 3,800W for extended periods across load tests, with brief surges above 4,000W before it shut down safely, and measured about 87 to 89% usable capacity in AC tests. PCMag also lists 5,528Wh tested capacity with expansion. Popular Mechanics tested computer gear, small appliances and a space heater.
Expansion
Popular Mechanics lists up to six additional batteries for 19,353.6Wh, and linking up to three units. Trusted Reviews says three Apex 300 units with a Hub A1 could provide up to 11.5kW, and with six batteries each store 58kWh. See our DELTA Pro 3 and Anker SOLIX F3800 for rival expandable systems.
Charging and solar
Trusted Reviews: Turbo mode up to 2,300W from the mains, full in about 90 minutes; Standard about 1.4kW, about two hours; Silent starts at 500W and slows further. Popular Mechanics notes two solar ports of up to 1,200W each, and a 3,600W path through a 30A connection. PCMag’s con: built-in solar inputs are limited to a 60V MPPT range.
UPS, app and ports
Popular Mechanics set it up as a UPS and tested a blackout with a monitor and computer. UPS switchover is reported at 20 ms (Popular Mechanics) and 10 ms (PCMag). Four 120V outlets, a 30A outlet and a 120/240V 50A outlet (Popular Mechanics). Popular Mechanics called the app near-perfect.
Ownership notes
- Noise. PCMag found fan noise controlled under heavy load, while Trusted Reviews listed “not particularly quiet” as a con.
- Price. Bluetti’s US page listed $1,699 on 2026-10-12. PCMag: $1,699 MSRP versus a $1,999.99 list. Trusted Reviews: £1,649.
- Battery. Trusted Reviews says Bluetti’s LiFePO4 cells are rated for 80% capacity after long cycle life, and calls the durability and warranty superb.
