BLUETTI Apex 300 Launches on Indiegogo: Versatile Power Station for Homes and Outdoors
A Versatile Power Solution for Every Situation
With a powerful 2,764.8Wh battery and a 3,840W inverter, the Apex 300 delivers dual-voltage power (120V & 240V) to run most household appliances. As the industry-first portable power station with a 12kW bypass and 0ms UPS, it allows whole-home essential backup with minimal installation and costs. Despite its robust performance, it remains transportable at 83.78 lbs and draws only 20W when idle.
Scalability is a key advantage, allowing up to three units in parallel for a massive 11.52kW output, 58kWh capacity, and 30kW solar input—enough for homes and remote workspaces.
Reliable Backup Power for Homes
With the Extreme Weather Alert feature, the Apex 300 prepare homes for upcoming power failures. When integrated into homes via a Reliance Sub Panel or the AT1 Smart Distribution Panel, it automatically backs up essential appliances. During extended blackouts, it can even black start 120V or 240V gas generators for recharging.
Maximizing solar energy with the 500V/4,000W SolarX 4K Solar Charge Controller, the Apex 300 ensures a fast 2-year payback. In a parallel system via Hub A1, it takes in a maximum of 30kW solar, helping homeowners reduce energy costs and achieve true solar self-sufficiency.
Portable Power Supply for RV and Off-Grid Living
Built for adventurers and off-grid pioneers, the Apex 300 delivers plug-and-play power for your wildest expeditions. It charges essentials and even RVs via the 30A and 50A ports. To power DC devices like laptops and car fridges, users can pair it with a Hub D1, which provides 700W DC output across seven versatile ports, including a 50A Anderson port. Recharging off the grid is equally flexible, via EV stations, generators, solar panels, or vehicles using the Charger 1 Alternator Charger.

I'll Never Go Camping Without This Backpack That Can Charge My Phone 18 Times
CNET's key takeaways This solar-rechargeable power station is also a backpack that can carry my camping essentials. I was able to charge my laptop six to nine times, my phone 18 times and my drone five times in one charge cycle. The Bluetti Handfree 2 backpack costs $599 at full price, but it is often on sale for $450. It's heavy. It weighs 16.5 pounds by itself before adding other gear. The Bluetti Handsfree 2 backpack, which is also a solar-rechargeable power station, is my new outdoor essential. This portable powerhouse lets me keep all my favorite electronics fully charged, even when I'm deep in the wilderness. The Bluetti Handsfree 2 is named CNET's best power station for camping because it's the only one -- out of hundreds we tested -- that is combined into a backpack. It can be fully-charged using solar panels or traditional wall charging. The battery pack fits into the rear pocket of a large camping/hiking backpack, with plenty of space left in the main compartment for all my other camping essentials, even food, clothes, gear or all the devices I'll be powering with the capacious battery. This latest iteration of Bluetti's portable power station isn't just for glampers like me. It's great for anyone who wants to truly work remotely or whose job takes them well off the grid. It enables the use of a huge variety of powered equipment without having to haul around a massive, traditional power station or generator. It can also be a huge boon for anyone working in emergency services, where portable backup power can be a (literal) lifesaver. My experience with the Bluetti Handsfree 2 backpack The backpack can hold 66 pounds when fully loaded, but it weighs 16.5 pounds on its own. Alan Bradley/CNET I spent several days using the Bluetti Handsfree 2 to evaluate how well it kept me connected while glamping. I took it out on the hiking trail with me for several hours and tested it with several devices and accessories. The heart of Bluetti's backpack power station is a portable battery unit, boasting an impressive 512Wh of power storage and a maximum output of 700W. The battery fits snugly inside the rear compartment of a large, 60-liter blue backpack festooned with hoops, straps and buckles. It's not the most attractive thing, but it works. The 512Wh battery's lifespan depends entirely on how you use it or which devices you charge with it. For instance, I was able to completely refill a laptop battery six to nine times, a phone 18 times and a large drone five times. It could also continuously power a 10W LED light bulb for more than 40 hours without needing to be recharged. The power station can pair with a solar panel (not included) to let you charge off-grid. Alan Bradley/CNET There's plenty of space to hang accessories, everything from camera gear to blankets or a tent. The shoulder straps include buckles to allow you to mount a GoPro or other action camera to help capture your wilderness adventures. The main compartment also has removable dividers that allow you to divide the internal space however you like or leave it as one large chamber. The Handsfree 2 offers five outputs, all of which can be used simultaneously. There's an AC output (up to 700W) for devices with a standard electrical cord, as well as two USB-C ports (100W each) and two USB-A ports (rated at 15W output each). It has enough output to power a mini-fridge to keep my favorite adult beverages icy cold, even without access to ice, and get some air circulating through my tent on hot desert nights with a full-size box fan. The power station comes with a convenient handle and fits in the backpack with other items. Alan Bradley/CNET There's an AC input and a DC/PV input to charge the battery. I plugged in a standard AC cord and got a complete charge in about an hour and 20 minutes. You can also charge it via your car. It took me almost six hours with a 12V charger or slightly over three hours with a 24V charger. The headline charging option is solar. While the Handsfree 2 doesn't come with a solar panel by default, you can get a 100W or 60W solar panel as a bundle or pick up a standalone portable solar panel ranging from 60W to 350W. At the 350W level, Bluetti says you can fully charge the battery in two hours, while on the lower end, the 60W panel would take around six hours to fill the battery from empty. Weight and durability The 60-liter backpack may look spacious, but the portable power station inside takes up a significant amount of space. Alan Bradley/CNET With the battery loaded, the Handsfree 2 weighs about 16.5 pounds. If you add significant weight with your own gear, and especially if you're carrying a tent, water bottles and other accessories on the exterior of the pack, it can get pretty heavy quickly. Bluetti says the Handsfree 2 can support over 66 pounds of load total due to its reinforced back and bottom panels. If you plan to do a lot of hiking, you may want to limit the weight of other gear you load into the Bluetti. The battery pack itself is a solid, dense brick in gunmetal gray, weighing around 15 pounds. While it's not exactly lightweight, it is lighter than other power solutions approaching its 512Wh capacity, and the way it fits into the backpack makes it balanced enough to carry with relative ease (at least for short distances). While not fully waterproof, the Handsfree 2 is water-resistant. It includes several features to keep your gear (and the battery) safe from rain, including waterproof zippers and a rain cover, and the backpack is made from splash-resistant fabric. Inside the backpack are compartments with removable dividers, letting you store camera accessories and attachments. Alan Bradley/CNET The specs Battery Capacity: 512Wh LiFePO₄ (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery 512Wh LiFePO₄ (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery Output Power: 700W (AC output) 700W (AC output) Output Ports: 1 x AC outlet (700W max) 2 x USB-C ports (100W each) 2 x USB-A ports (15W each) Input Charging Options: AC Charging: Up to 600W max, fully charged in approximately 1.3 hours.

Additional Features: Pass-through charging UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) mode Bluetooth app control Built-in screen display for power usage and remaining charge MOLLE-compatible backpack with external attachment points and removable internal dividers 5-year warranty CNET's buying advice The power station that's included with the Handsfree 2 is capable of charging your phone up to 18 times. CNET The Bluetti Handsfree 2 is a great backpack and portable power station combo for campers, hikers and photographers. Not only was I able to charge things like a phone or laptop quickly and easily (and even simultaneously), the Handsfree 2 also let me power some real luxury accessories. If the price tag is too steep but you need power on the go, you can consider a regular power bank like the InfinityLab InstaGo or Anker PowerCore for around $45. Keep in mind, though, that these portable power banks are only good for charging a phone once or twice. While technically portable, power stations have a more powering capabilities than portable power banks, but most are too heavy to lug around when hiking. Portable power stations are meant for campsites and RVs. They sometimes have wheels and can be lifted, but they are not seriously portable like the Bluetti Handfree 2, which can simply be carried with you no matter how rough the terrain is.

Major Drop in Speeding Recorded as Stouffville's Speed Enforcement Cameras Expand
● Speeding infractions in community safety zones monitored by automated speed enforcement cameras dropped by 50 percent between March and June. ● Average speeds fell month-over-month, with 16 percent fewer drivers exceeding the posted limit. ● The highest fine to date was $4,152 for a driver clocked at 210 km/h in a 40 km/h zone. ● Four new ASE cameras will be activated in mid-August. ● A more detailed mid-year report on the program is expected in October, with a full-year review scheduled for April 2026. In a surprise announcement, the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville has released data showing a significant decline in speeding within areas monitored by its automated speed enforcement (ASE) camera program. The preliminary results were expected later this year . Between March and June, the number of speeding infractions recorded in monitored community safety zones (CSZs) dropped by 50 percent. The Town also reported a 16 percent reduction in the rate of drivers exceeding posted speed limits, alongside a consistent month-over-month decrease in average speeds. According to the Town, 90 percent of tickets were issued between 5 a.m. and 8 p.m. The highest fine levied so far, a staggering $4,152, was tied to a vehicle recorded travelling 210 km/h in a 40 km/h zone. 'The program launched…with pole-mounted cameras at eight approved locations throughout Stouffville,' a Town press release stated. 'The initiative is part of the Town's broader commitment to road safety, particularly in areas often frequented by children and seniors.' The number of cameras is set to grow, as four new ASE locations are scheduled to go live in mid-August: Residents are also being reminded that the Town does not request payment for ASE tickets by phone, email, or text message. Official ticket notices are issued solely by letter mail, and any requests for payment through other means should be treated as suspicious. Revenue details from the program were not shared, but a mid-year report with some preliminary figures is expected to be presented to Council in October. According to the Town, revenue generated through ASE is used to offset program operating costs, with any surplus funds supporting additional road safety initiatives. 'While these early indicators are promising, they do not yet reflect long-term or seasonal trends,' the release added. 'A comprehensive, year-one report will be presented to Council in April 2026, with a mid-year, 6-month report in October… As compliance improves, revenues are expected to decline, allowing the program to remain revenue neutral.' Mayor Iain Lovatt welcomed the early results, saying the program is 'influencing driver behaviour in the right direction.' 'By focusing on education and enforcement, we are seeing real improvements in compliance with speed limits near our schools and in our neighbourhoods.' he said in the press release. 'Ultimately, this is about protecting people.' Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request. There was a problem with the recaptcha. Please try again. You may unsubscribe at any time.
