BLUETTI has introduced its latest portable power station, the AC50B, which features a 700W output and six power outlets (DC/AC/USB-C/USB-A).

This compact and lightweight model supports efficient charging, operates silently, and can be controlled via a Bluetooth app. It is priced under $300 until July 21st.

Transition to Greener Solutions

Traditionally, fuel-based power generators have been the preferred choice for filmmakers working in remote locations. However, they are increasingly being replaced by battery power stations that offer quieter and more environmentally friendly operation. BLUETTI, a prominent name in the industry, is expanding its reach beyond campers and outdoor enthusiasts to include adventure filmmakers.

Key Features of the BLUETTI AC50B

The BLUETTI AC50B portable power station offers a 700W power output with a peak power of 1,050W. It is powered by a 448Wh LiFePO₄ battery, which can be charged using AC power (max 580W). This allows for an 80% charge in just 45 minutes or a full charge in 70 minutes. Alternatively, a solar panel (max 200W), such as BLUETTI’s PV120, can fully charge the unit in about 2.5 hours.

The AC50B features an AI-powered Battery Management System (BMS) that ensures efficient charging and energy optimization. It also provides protection against overcharging, over-discharging, short circuits, and overheating. The unit can function as a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) that activates within 0.02 seconds during a power outage.

  • 1x DC output (12V/10A)
  • 2x AC output sockets (120V/700W)
  • 2x USB-C outputs (65W)
  • 1x USB-A output (15W)

Weighing only 6.7kg (14.8 lbs), the AC50B is compact and portable, with an integrated handle for easy transport. While it is not completely silent, it operates at around 50dB, making it suitable for recording sound on location. Additionally, the AC50B can be controlled and monitored via the BLUETTI smartphone app (iOS/Android) using Bluetooth.

The BLUETTI AC50B is available on Amazon US with an official retail price of $399.
