B300 + B300k ADD

Product Discussion BLUETTI Apex & AC Series

I bought a B300 for my AC200MAX. Now I want to buy a B300 to go with it. But it’s out of stock. Has production stopped?

In this case, can I install a B300K alongside the B300?

I am not 100% sure about the AC200. But my Apex300 can and is using a mix of B300k and B300 batteries. B300 is discontinued and the B300k is pretty much the direct replacement. You would want to make sure you get the right cable to allow you to connect them. While the plug is the same, the B300k has option for the short and long cable. The short cables work beautifully to connect 2 B300k or the B300k to Apex300, but you ma need the longer cable to connect the B300k to AC300 or to the other B300. Check to make sure it would reach.

Thank you very much. As is well known, a B230 and a B300 cannot be connected side by side. I’d like to know if a B300 and a B300K can be connected to the AC200Max at the same time, using the same logic. I understand the need for a long cable for the B300K.

Production of the B300 seems to have stopped but you can pair your existing B300 with a B300K on the AC200MAX they are compatible.

Hi, can you please share the details how you was managed to connect both b300k and b300 to your Apex300? There is the only one expansion port at Apex300 and the sockets at b300 and b300k seems not the same to connect b300k to b300

The B300 and B300k have the same battery connection socket, though they are oriented 90 degrees, but the cable will fit if it is long enough to reach. The short cable that came with Apex 300 is only long enough to reach the B300k directly underneath. But the longer cable that came with the B300 is long enough to connect the B300 to B300k or the Apex300.

In my setup:
(top) Apex300 - B300k - B300 - B300 (bottom)

Apex300 connects to B300k using the short battery cable. B300k then connects to the first B300 using the long battery cable. The 1st B300 connects to the 2nd B300 using a long battery cable. So they daisy chain.

Thanks a lot! Such a relief. I am just waiting for my Apex one with b300k to be delivered so had no chance to take a look myself. There is no strong info about such usecase in the internet also this confusion with P090D and P090A have made things a bit uncertain.
