Is the BLUETTI SwapSolar Multicooler Ecosystem the Ultimate Solution for Portable Power and Cooling?

Updated: May 31


Introducing BLUETTI’s SwapSolar Multicooler Ecosystem




In off-grid living and outdoor expeditions, power and food preservation are not mere conveniences but essential for comfort and survival. For those who roam wild terrains or seek the freedom of the open road, cutting-edge technology brings solutions that redefine self-reliance.


Enter another duo of products from the busy minds at BLUETTI. This particular product is the SwapSolar, an innovative ecosystem that merges the prowess of the AC180T Power Station with the MultiCooler Portable Fridge/Cooler. This dynamic combination offers a complete energy and cooling management solution for anyone on the move, no matter how far off the beaten path they may roam.


The Power Behind AC180T Power Station

At the heart of the BLUETTI SwapSolar system lies the AC180T Power Station, a portable powerhouse designed to keep your devices charged, appliances running, and campsite lit. Equipped with a colossal 1433.6 Wh LiFePO4 battery, the AC180T boasts a diverse range of power outlets, including four AC outlets, a 12V carport, 2 USB-A ports, and 2 USB-C ports, making it compatible with virtually any electronic device.



Features and Capabilities of the Bluetti SwapSolar Multicooler Ecosystem

The AC180T is not just about its extensive range of outputs; it is also a marvel of modern technology, with features like MPPT high-voltage solar inputs, an advanced cooling system, and a 2000W pure sine wave inverter. This inverter delivers clean and reliable energy so your sensitive gadgets are charged without risk of damage.


I believe the AC180T’s strongest selling feature is the hot swappability of the batteries. Most of these power generators have batteries permanently housed within the unit. Bluetti’s latest offering houses up to two of its B70 batteries that can be changed out on the go and shared with other items like the multi-cooler.






Benefits for the Outdoor Enthusiast and RV Owners

The AC180T is the ultimate companion for outdoor fanatics, ensuring a seamless adventure. Its rugged build and silent operation align perfectly with the serenity of nature, and the immense power reserves mean you can run your essentials for days without access to traditional power sources.


For RV owners, the AC180T offers peace of mind with an eco-friendly and reliable power solution. It’s an ideal source for all your onboard appliances, and with its solar compatibility, it significantly reduces the reliance on noisy, diesel-guzzling generators.


MultiCooler Portable Fridge: Keeping Things Cool Anywhere

This brings us to the other part of the SwapSolar Ecosystem- The MultiCooler Portable Fridge. The MultiCooler is about more than just keeping your perishables chilled. BLUETTI’s innovative approach here has resulted in a device that not only refrigerates but also freezes, and even makes ice from running water.



Description of the MultiCooler

With a temperature control range from -4°F to 60°F (-20°C to 20°C), the MultiCooler adapts to your needs — be it preserving the day’s catch or keeping your drinks at the ideal temperature. For your next camping trip, you can store up to 40 liters (42 quarts) of beverages/food.


I mentioned the unit's ice-making capabilities. The owner needs only add the water, and the first batch of ice is ready in as little as 15 minutes. Even more important is the quiet factor. It will make ice less than 45db, or the equivalent of library quiet noise.





Bluetti also included a self-cleaning function, ensuring the unit is always in tip-top shape.




Advantages of Off-Grid Living and Outdoor Adventures

For those living off-grid, the MultiCooler is a game-changer. It offers versatile cooling/freezing and ice-making without the need for a constant power supply. What’s more, it can run directly from your AC180T for an eco-friendly setup ideal for remote cabins or sustainable homes. The batteries are even swappable amongst the units, bringing ultra-portability.


Out in the wild, this rugged and durable fridge withstands the demands of your adventure. Whether climbing a mountain or navigating rivers, the MultiCooler’s IP55 dust and water resistance rating keeps its contents safe and sound, even in the harshest conditions. Bluetti has made sure to make this unit rugged with sound wheels and outfitted with a robust handle to make light of the 50lb cooler.



The Integration: BLUETTI SwapSolar Ecosystem

The real magic of the SwapSolar system unfolds when the AC180T and the MultiCooler are brought together. With BLUETTI’s patented ECO mode and Adaptive Cluster Technology, energy is distributed smartly to the devices, ensuring optimal efficiency and longevity of the battery life. The capability of the B70 batteries ensures that the cooler can continue to run while the power generator is charging. The SwapSolar system can charge directly within the car using DC, home AC, or directly from the sun using solar panels. Each B70 battery will power the MutiCooler for up to 3 days.


Enhancing Convenience and Comfort on the Road

In addition to these benefits, the BLUETTI SwapSolar ecosystem is about enhancing the quality of your experience. The convenience of having a power and cooling solution that’s not only powerful but also portable and eco-conscious is unparalleled. Now, you can camp in comfort, knowing you have access to everything you need, without impacting the environment.



Conclusion and Takeaways

As someone who owns multiple coolers, although none are ice makers, I can see the appeal of having a portable fridge/freezer combination. They are extremely handy when transporting food during a move or bringing beverages to a function (like a tailgate).




If there is one negative with the Bluetti offering, it lies with the size of the unit: just 40 liters. You won’t be able to put a ton of food in this to support a normal family. I imagine they may offer larger units should the demand be there. Space is the sacrifice we must endure when a compressor and an ice maker are involved. If this unit weighs over 50 lbs, the larger capacity would only be exponentially heavier and cumbersome. You have to love the idea of a portable ice maker. If you are the bartender in charge of the campsite, how great would it be to always have ice on hand?


I should have mentioned what the SwapSolar system will set you back. Currently, the entire ecosystem includes the Multicooler, the Power Generator, and 1 battery for the cool sum of $1,999. It is important to note that extra batteries will cost you $299/each. Multiple batteries are a must if you want to extend your off-grid experience. While this was initially part of a crowdfunding campaign, these units are already being produced and shipped. You can expect to receive yours in time for the hottest part of the summer.


The BLUETTI SwapSolar system isn’t just about size or products; it’s about a lifestyle that embraces mobility, sustainability, and innovation. Whether it’s the world travelers looking to explore the globe, the weekend warriors escaping the city, or the homesteaders building their off-grid paradise, BLUETTI’s solutions cater to a wide array of needs and elevate how we interact with our environment.


For the modern traveler and outdoor enthusiast, these devices represent the bridge between convenience and the call of the wild. The integration of the AC180T Power Station and the MultiCooler is more than the sum of its parts; it’s a step forward into a future where the freedom to roam and the comforts of home are no longer at odds.
