Will the BLUETTI PV200D work with the EcoFlow RIVER Plus?
Yes, with a catch. Fine in mild weather (24.6V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 26.9V, above the 25V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage. Two panels: works, with a catch (2 panels in parallel on Solar input), about 200 W.
Works, with a catch
It charges, but read the note. Best option: 1 panel on Solar input.
- Fine in mild weather (24.6V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 26.9V, above the 25V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage.
- The panel's plug type is not confirmed yet. Check the label or the box before buying a cable.

Quick answers
Will the BLUETTI PV200D work with the EcoFlow RIVER Plus?
Yes, with a catch. Fine in mild weather (24.6V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 26.9V, above the 25V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage. Two panels: works, with a catch (2 panels in parallel on Solar input), about 200 W.
Can I connect two PV200D panels to the RIVER Plus?
Yes, 2 panels in parallel on Solar input. That gives about 200 W, with one catch: Fine in mild weather (24.6V), but on a 20°F (-7°C) morning the open-circuit voltage rises to about 26.9V, above the 25V limit. Cold makes panels push more voltage..
What cable do I need to connect the PV200D to the RIVER Plus?
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 PV200D goes from 24.6 V on its label to about 26.9 V at 20°F and 27.8 V at 0°F. The RIVER Plus accepts up to 25 V on the Solar input.

Other panels that work with the RIVER Plus
- EcoFlow RIVER Plus: solar input 10 to 25 V on the Solar in (Solar input). EcoFlow 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 24.6 V becomes 26.9 V.
- Current over the 12 A cap is safe: the station takes 12 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 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.
