Decision evidence

What the documents establish

Published evidence, source-reviewed non-disclosure and unresolved questions remain separate from the product score.

Usable capacity

Stated depth of discharge: 89.9%. Published usable energy: 8.92 kWh in the scored configuration. These values may have different measurement conditions.

8.92 kWh usableScored configuration: EP760 + 2 x B500. Published range 8.92–17.84 kWh.

The stated depth of discharge and published usable energy can have different test conditions or configuration limits. They do not by themselves establish nominal capacity or a reserve that is always inaccessible. Delivered AC energy and runtime also depend on the inverter, settings and loads.

The scored reference uses two B500 modules. B500A and configurations outside the exact two-to-four-module inverter boundary are excluded.

No year-by-year capacity schedule is published for this product - the manufacturer guarantees only this end-of-term minimum, not a specific decline curve. Capacity figure based on the sourced usable capacity of the base configuration; modular systems scale with additional modules.

The blackout score is a standalone benchmark of outage resilience only - it re-weights sourced specs already scored in this product’s pillars (backup tier, switchover, surge strength, backup power, off-grid recharge) and never affects the overall score. Dots show the full battery fleet; the marker is this product.

Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.

Benchmark anchor. The scored reference uses two B500 modules. B500A and configurations outside the exact two-to-four-module inverter boundary are excluded. Scored model: EP760 + 2 x B500 · checked 2026-08-02. Evidence.

Strong evidence coverage

18 of 18 scored criteria link directly to a published source.

Values marked estimated, derived, or not found remain visible on the audit sheet and do not carry the same evidential weight as a linked source. Coverage measures direct links, not an independent guarantee that a claim is correct.

Rings, outside in: manufacturer claim, certified or regulator-listed, third-party source. The centre is review.solar's own measurement, empty for every product today. Warranty terms and design facts that rest on the maker's own word are counted beside the rings; a reviewed absence, or one that reaches beyond the maker's claim, stays in them. How the evidence puzzle works

Record revision. Exact EP760 and B500 specifications, compatibility and Australian approvals reviewed 2026-08-02; regional catalogues reviewed September 2026. Australian EP760/B500 warranty P/N 17.0303.0806-03A3 checked 2026-10-04: fans and WiFi modules have 24-month cover. The 70% endpoint is new usable battery energy measured at the battery interface under the prescribed 22–28 C protocol, not cycle life or round-trip efficiency. This warranty review does not refresh approval or sale status.

    AU Warranty conditions

    Current text
    labour: Free repair and material remedies are stated, but unconditional full-term on-site labour coverage is not established. An uncovered/non-quality finding may attract a proposed service fee (PDF7 section 3.5); out-of-warranty charges are separate.; registration: PDF6 sections 2–3 require manual-compliant use, certified installation and notice to the distributor/local BLUETTI within 30 days of awareness of defect/deterioration. Supply order number, purchase/installation dates, fault evidence, battery/inverter serials and installer/distributor details. No separate initial product-registration requirement was established; claim notice is distinct.; remedy: PDF7 sections 3.2, 3.6 and 3.8: BLUETTI chooses free repair, parts replacement or new/refurbished replacement. The original period does not restart, but replacement parts/products receive one year if the original remaining term is shorter. If the product is no longer commercially available, BLUETTI may offer equivalent function/performance or propose a depreciated-value refund: purchase price/120 × (120 − operating months since installation). This is a conditional discontinued-product remedy, not an unrestricted refund promise.; removal reinstallation: Unconditional removal and reinstallation costs are not established by the reviewed warranty; covered logistics and hardware remedies are not treated as a site-work entitlement.; transferability: PDF12 section 8 limits application to purchasers acquiring products for their own use; an automatic later-owner transfer entitlement is not publicly established in this instrument.; transport: PDF10 section 5.1 covers material and logistics costs for quality-related repair/replacement, including dispatch and recovery. PDF6 section 2.3 separately places return shipment/delivery risk on the buyer and requires original or equivalent packing. Paid logistics do not remove shipping risk or establish every possible freight entitlement.

    AU Warranty scope

    Before
    Ten years or the configuration throughput cap, whichever occurs first, with a 70% retained-capacity endpoint.
    After
    Australian EP760/B500 installations on or after 1 June 2023: ten years or aggregate throughput, whichever first; two B500 modules have a 36.50 MWh cap and a 70% minimum of new usable battery energy under the prescribed test. Fans and WiFi modules have 24-month cover. Default commencement is the first day after three months from production; written purchase proof and delivery-to-installation within one month permit the installation date or first day after one month from purchase. NSW RDRS commencement is commissioning/installation. Australian Consumer Law rights are additional. The document names BLUETTI as obligor, Shenzhen PowerOak as manufacturer and BLUETTI ENERGY PTY LTD as importer; these roles are not interchangeable.
