Will the Anker SOLIX PS200 Bifacial work with the BLUETTI EP500?
Yes, with a catch. Working voltage 48V is below the 55V minimum, so charging may drop out in weak light. Two panels: works (2 panels in series on PV input), about 399 W.
Works, with a catch
It charges, but read the note. Best option: 1 panel on PV input.
- Working voltage 48V is below the 55V minimum, so charging may drop out in weak light.
- The panel's plug type is not confirmed yet. Check the label or the box before buying a cable.

Quick answers
Will the Anker SOLIX PS200 Bifacial work with the BLUETTI EP500?
Yes, with a catch. Working voltage 48V is below the 55V minimum, so charging may drop out in weak light. Two panels: works (2 panels in series on PV input), about 399 W.
Can I connect two PS200 Bifacial panels to the EP500?
Yes, 2 panels in series on PV input. That gives about 399 W.
What cable do I need to connect the PS200 Bifacial to the EP500?
The panel's plug type is not confirmed yet. Check the label or the box before buying a cable.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One PS200 Bifacial goes from 57.6 V on its label to about 63.1 V at 20°F and 65 V at 0°F. The EP500 accepts up to 145 V on the PV input.
Where to buy
We may earn a commission if you buy through these links. It never changes a verdict.
- BLUETTI EP500: solar input 55 to 145 V on the Solar in (PV input). 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 57.6 V becomes 63.1 V.
- Current over the 20 A cap is safe: the station takes 20 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 1,200 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.
- Some numbers for Anker SOLIX PS200 Bifacial come from a shop listing we have not confirmed in the manual yet.
