Common questions

How many nights will the BLUETTI AC180 run a CPAP with heated humidifier?
About 3 nights of 8 hours (29 hours in total). A CPAP with heated humidifier averages about 34 W, and the 1,152 Wh battery gives about 979 Wh after inverter losses.
How much longer does it last without the heated humidifier?
With the heated humidifier on (about 34 W), about 3 nights (29 hrs). Without it (about 7 W), about 17 nights (6 days). Turning the humidifier off is the easiest way to stretch a charge.
Is the BLUETTI AC180 enough backup for a CPAP with heated humidifier?
Only as a short bridge. It covers about 3 nights (29 hours) from a full charge. A power station should never be your only backup for medical equipment: ask your equipment supplier what they provide in an outage, register with your utility’s medical-needs program, and keep the settings your prescriber gave you.
