BLUETTI AC200MAX Pricing, Warranty & Manuals

BLUETTI AC200MAX Price

The BLUETTI AC200MAX retails for around $2,000, at the time this article was written, and sales are often available when you purchase through the brand’s website. Keep in mind that kits are also available, so if you know your power needs ahead of time, you may be able to save some money on your initial purchase by bundling the AC200MAX with solar panels.

BLUETTI AC200MAX Tax Credit

Just like with the EcoFlow DELTA Pro, the BLUETTI AC200MAX may also qualify for a tax credit through the Residential Clean Energy Credit program. The same requirements must be met, and if you qualify, the tax credit would be the same as well: 30 percent of the total cost for your setup, including solar panels, balance of system and installation.

The Bottom Line

When it comes down to it, BLUETTI and EcoFlow are both great brands with a solid reputation for quality and customer service. The AC200MAX and the DELTA Pro are both great power stations with good tech and features. So how do you decide between them? You’ll need to consider your power needs, your intended uses and your budget. Secondary to those factors are any features that you deem necessary or “nice to have.”

The BLUETTI AC200MAX is a little smaller, lighter and less expensive, but has less power output and capacity than the DELTA Pro. However, less power overall means a faster charging time, and the AC200MAX can be fully charged in just 1.5 hours with an AC wall plug. We recommend this unit for smaller families or those looking for a partial or shorter-term home backup. It’s also going to function great for outdoor adventures and powering your RV. 

Meanwhile, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro, while a little heavier and a little larger in size than the AC200MAX, has built-in wheels and a handle for easy mobility. It also has a larger output and battery capacity, so if you’re looking for more of a whole-home backup or have greater power needs when traveling, this may be a better choice for you. The larger capacity means a longer charge time, but this mighty machine can still charge from empty to full in 2.7 hours. Keep in mind that the DELTA Pro has EV charging capabilities, and is able to be recharged at EV charging stations as well as charge your EV on the road.

Ultimately, you can’t go wrong with either option. Whether for emergency preparedness, sustainable living or as a dependable power source for adventures, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro and BLUETTI AC300 stand ready to deliver.
