2765 watt hours of battery capacity - that's enough to recharge an 800 e-bike battery three times on the road until the power station itself has to be plugged in again.

The Bluetti Apex 300 is not a piece of road trip luggage. It is a control centre. If you don't just want to charge your e-bike on the road, but also want to expand your motorhome to match, this power station is the perfect electrical base. TIME Magazine even named the Apex 300 one of the best inventions of 2025, and we say: well deserved. But only for the right target group.

Conclusion: Bluetti Apex 300 + Charger One

The Apex 300 is the right choice for anyone who wants to equip a camper with a complete power installation without a great deal of effort - and therefore also wants to be self-sufficient when travelling with an e-MTB. Connect Hub D1, connect the 12 V distribution to the Anderson port, connect Charger One to the starter battery: done. No complicated electrical planning, no specialist required. As a portable solution for spontaneous road trips, however, it is oversized - 36 kilograms is no fun if you have to load the power station regularly. - Max Fuchs, BIKE editor

The perfect match: Powerstation and e-bikes

Anyone going on a road trip with an e-bike faces a simple problem: every day the battery is empty, every day electricity is needed. Campsite shore power solves this - but takes away exactly the freedom you were looking for. Powerstations are the first step. Fast vehicle charging via the alternator is the decisive second: over 1000 watts of charging power directly from the vehicle while you are driving anyway. A few hours' journey, power station full, e-bike charging option secured for the next day.

The campervan builder: why the Apex 300 dominates here

The Apex 300 picks up where most power stations leave off. Namely with an extremely powerful 12V connection (Anderson port on the D1 hub), which does not buckle even with large consumers. Auxiliary heating, compressor - the connection can handle all of this without any problems. This makes the Apex 300 one of the few models to which the entire 12-volt power distribution system of a motorhome can be connected without hesitation. - Max Fuchs, BIKE Editor

Hub D1: the decisive expansion

The D1 hub is a separately available accessory that is connected to the Apex 300. Price point: 299 euros. It comes with an Anderson port - designed for up to 30 amps. What this means: The parking heater ignites without any problems, the compressor refrigerator runs even at high outside temperatures, and the compressor starts without the protective shutdown taking effect.

This is the fundamental difference competition: Anderson plugs are the industry standard for high-current DC connections in the vehicle sector. 30 to 50 amps at 12 volts - that's enough for everything a well-equipped camper needs.

Fast charging in the car: 560 watts - sufficient, but not lightning fast

The Bluetti Charger One delivers 560 watts, costs 249 euros and charges the Apex 300 directly via the alternator. This is less than DJI, for example (1000 W). For the Apex 300 with 2765 Wh capacity, this means around 4.5 to 5 hours of travelling to charge the power station from empty to full. This is sufficient for full installations in a camper that is travelling long distances anyway. For daily short-distance road trips, where you only drive for 1-2 hours, the charging buffer is narrower. If you need to go faster, Bluetti has recently launched a more powerful charger: the Charger 2, which charges with up to 1200 watts and sets the benchmark in this area. The disadvantage: at 500 euros, the Charger 2 is an expensive pleasure.

The clear weakness: portability

36 kilograms. The Apex 300 has integrated side handles - so in principle it can be carried by two people. But if you regularly have to heave it into the boot for short trips, you'll soon get tired of it. The weight is justifiable for a campervan in which it is installed once and then never moved again. As a portable day companion for spontaneous road trips: the wrong device.

In addition: There are no 12-volt connections on the Apex 300 itself. The e-bike charger runs on 230 volts directly at the station - no problem. If you want to connect additional 12 V consumers, you need the D1 hub. One more part, one more connection and 300 euros extra.

Who is the system made for?

Perfect forCampervan self-builders looking for a powerful electrical base
Less suitable forWeekenders looking for a flexible device
If you only want to charge your e-bike and don't need 12V connections directly at the power station
