After purchasing this unit for two reasons, wifi and max rate of charge with a single cable, Bluetti has finally contacted me. 65 email responses later and waiting 5 months, they give me an answer. " We regret to inform you the cable is not being manufactured at this time." So, to anyone that was waiting for this to drop and attach it to your AC200L to get the touted and highly acclaimed 2400 watts, you are SOL. I went ahead and filled out some paperwork with the FCC, Amazon and BBB just to get the proverbial ball rolling here. Because that answer doesn’t work for me. I will update later.

So a typical power outlet is 1800W at 120V/15A.
I assumed 2400W AC input requires either 120V/20A or 240V10A.
Both would require a special power outlet and cable (20A is out of normal UL spec, 240V needs a washer/drier style outlet and plug).
So i never would expect it to be easy to do and am not surprised they failed to get their plug approved.
It is actually the norm now on most gas generators. TT-30P can come out to a Nema plug and go straight to the AC200L. Shouldn’t’ offer something if you can’t deliver. This makes a huge difference for us as we have two B300s connected to the AC200L. So, we absolutely needed to charge this at 2400 during storms or several days of autonomy.
Hi @apoc, We understand your concerns and greatly appreciate your interest in our new products.
We’ve consulted with the US customer service team. The 20A AC charging cable is an optional accessory that is currently in production.
Unfortunately, we don’t have a confirmed release date yet, but we are urging the production team to expedite the process.
We all share the same desire to get it available as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

Can Bluetti please notify We who are interested when it’s available?
I don’t see much point in adding extra battery storage that can’t achieve max charge rate as easily-quickly-safely as possible. Outages can be prolonged in my neighbourhood
I don’t like the small gauge PV cables included with my 200pl either. Is Bluetti planning to offer more robust ones?
Thanks and Respect
