As avid travelers who enjoy the great outdoors while also needing to keep our gadgets juiced up, finding the perfect portable power station is crucial. Enter the Bluetti AC200Max, a beast in a box that promises to keep you powered up, whether you’re camping in the wild or enduring a power outage at home.
We plan to put the portable AC200Max to the test and see just how much we can throw at this thing before we give it our verdict. If you have any questions after our Bluetti AC200Max review, then we haven’t completed our mission so read on and let us know if there’s anything we’ve missed.

The addition of a USB C 100w port is great for laptops that power themselves via USB and saves having to lug out the extra laptop power supply when working on the go.
