This was a replacement for the Goal Zero unit that I had been using for 3 years. This unit is very well made and has the USB-C charger that I needed for my newer apple devices. Th most important feature for purchasing this unit in comparison to others is the life of the battery. With the LiFePO4 battery chemistry, you have far greater entended battery life from 500 to 2,500 cycles.

I bought my eb70 716 watt back in November of 2021. This thing has been awesome. No issues, works as advertised. Unit is a work horse. Extremely reliable. With all the cuffernt models they offer they Almost cover all the bases. I Bluetti made a 1000 watt hour model in lipo4 chemistry and the same outputs as the Eb70 and a max input of 10 amps instead of 8 amps then jackery, and all the other want-to-be’s would be completley obsolete! With Bluetti’s quality, durability and reliability no one would be able to compete. I love my Bluetti and plan on buying another one to fill in the above mention gap by running two of them, by rotating them.

The EB70 700 watt portable generator has multiple DC outputs and 4 110-120VAC outlets. The outputs are enabled as a group by a small lighted switch. I found that the LED on these switches is very hard to see in full sunlight outdoors. The AC inverter only runs when the AC switch is turned on. Two of the AC outlets can be 3-prong and two outlets only have two prongs. In fact, even the three-prong-capable outlets are not grounded. Because the unit is portable, it doesn’t have an earth ground, so there is nothing to connect the ground prong to. That’s the nature of any portable power source. However, all of the AC outlets are polarized for safety. I measured 110 VAC on these AC outlets. Of course, this is fine for any 110-120 VAC devices and appliances that require 700 watts or less.

The DC outputs include two USB-C ports (100 watts each to easily power laptop computers and fast charging phones), two USB-A ports (5V, 3A), two round ports (12V regulated, 10A) one cigarette lighter port (12V regulated, 10A), and one 15w wireless charging pad on the top surface. The wireless charging pad is powerful enough to charge my Google Pixel 5 phone right through its Otter Box protective case (I love that!). I measured 13.3 volts on the 12V regulated outputs, which I understand is normal when no current is flowing.

In addition to all that, this bluetti generator also has a very bright flashlight built into the front face that has two brightness levels and a third level that automatically flashes the Morse Code “SOS” signal. The light is perfect for getting the CPAP set up at bedtime.

Finally, the front face contains a color graphical display of the charge state of the battery, the current input wattage and the current combined output wattage.

The device includes a hideaway folding carrying handle. I didn’t think I would like this kind of handle from the look in the pictures but now that I’ve used it for a while I really like it. It feels very solid.

Overall I think the Bluetti EB70 is a very well designed and solidly built 700w generator with a great feature set using long lasting batteries. It’s perfect for our needs.

The EB70 is made with Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePo4) batteries which have much longer life and are a little safer than the older batteries used in older designs. The switch to LiFePo4 batteries follows a welcome trend that Bluetti started last year with their AC200P.
