Will the Renogy 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel work with the BLUETTI AC180?
Yes. One Renogy 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel works with the BLUETTI AC180: about 24.5 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 195 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in series on DC7909), about 390 W.
Works
1 x 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel into the AC180 (1 panel on DC7909) stays inside 12 to 60 V, even at 20F. The station caps the current at 10 A.
- The panels can push 12.8A but this input takes 10A, so the station caps it. Safe, you just lose some watts.
- BLUETTI's manual: panels above 60V open-circuit voltage damage the station, and the warranty does not cover it.
- Do not mix different types of panels, and use at least 100W of panels.
- Use an MC4 to DC7909 solar cable; check whether one came in the box.

Quick answers
Will the Renogy 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel work with the BLUETTI AC180?
Yes. One Renogy 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel works with the BLUETTI AC180: about 24.5 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 195 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in series on DC7909), about 390 W.
Can I connect two 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel panels to the AC180?
Yes, 2 panels in series on DC7909. That gives about 390 W.
What cable do I need to connect the 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel to the AC180?
Use an MC4 to DC7909 solar cable; check whether one came in the box.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One 250W N-Type Bifacial Solar Panel goes from 22.4 V on its label to about 24.5 V at 20°F and 25.2 V at 0°F. The AC180 accepts up to 60 V on the DC7909.

Other panels that work with the AC180
- BLUETTI AC180: solar input 12 to 60 V on the Solar in (DC7909). BLUETTI sets this limit on open-circuit voltage (Voc), so we hold the panels' Voc on your coldest morning to it.
- Cold raises panel voltage: we add 0.30% per °C below 77F (25°C), a typical figure, since this panel does not publish its own. At 20F one panel's 22.4 V becomes 24.5 V.
- Current over the 10 A cap is safe: the station takes 10 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 500 W on this input.
- Cold-morning voltage uses 0.30% per °C, typical for crystalline panels. This panel's own value is not published.
- Expected watts are the best case in full sun. Real-world midday output is usually 60 to 80% of that.
