Sleek, stylish, and simple to use
The FridgePower features a simple plug-and-play design that enables quick, hassle-free setup and easy out-of-the-box use. It adopts a discreet 75 mm profile that blends seamlessly into modern residential spaces without compromising interior aesthetics. With a minimalist footprint and support for both flat and vertical mounting, it offers a practical, space-saving solution for kitchens, rental properties, caravan and basement utility areas, keeping home battery backup unobtrusive while maximising usable space.
Standalone strength and scalable support
With a breakthrough 4W AC idle drain, the FridgePower optimises the 2kWh power range to extend refrigerator runtimes by an additional 4.5 hours. Whether used as a high-efficiency standalone unit or scaled for broader appliance support, it ensures essentials are powered longer when it matters most:
- Standalone Unit (2,016Wh/1,800W). Sustains a standard refrigerator (averaging 2kWh/day) for approximately 21.6 hours.
- Scalable Endurance (Up to 8,064Wh). Expandable via three BlueCell 200 expansion batteries, extending critical backup to four full days during prolonged outages.
- High-Demand Support (3,600W surge). Handles the reliable startup of heavy-duty refrigerator compressors and residential sump pumps.
Smart UPS for refrigerator with dual protection
Powered by BLUEGrid
technology, FridgePower features a 10ms UPS switchover, ensuring uninterrupted operation during sudden outages. This uninterruptible power supply for refrigerators helps safeguard critical household needs—from perishable food and essential medicines like insulin, to essential devices including CPAP machines, Wi-Fi routers, and aquarium oxygen pumps.
To optimise energy usage, users can tailor their power strategy through four specialised UPS modes: Standard, PV Priority, Time-of-Use, and Customised. For added reliability, an integrated automatic bypass ensures the grid can supply appliances directly when the unit is inactive, providing double protection for essential household appliances.
Safe for 10 years, silent by design
With LiFePO₄ cells rated for over 4,000 charge cycles, the BLUETTI FridgePower delivers over 10 years lifespan as a dependable battery backup for refrigerators and freezers. To complement this longevity with home comfort, the system maintains noise levels as low as 30 dB, comparable to a quiet library. Smart sensors continuously monitor internal temperatures and automatically adjust fan speed to deliver effective cooling. The result is providing a silent, emission-free take on traditional gas generators.
Smart home integration
The FridgePower prioritises open integration, supporting Alexa, Google Home, and Home Assistant for personalised energy management. Beyond this universal compatibility, the system unlocks its full potential through the BLUETTI App, which introduces data-driven features tailored for home safety and efficiency, including:
- Extreme Weather Alerts. Proactive monitoring of local forecasts to initiate rapid charging before anticipated storms.
- System Diagnostics. Instant notifications regarding battery health, load status, and power activity.
- Smart Maintenance. Automated 3-month cycles to balance cells and optimize longevity.
- Remote Wakeup. A 0.3W ultra-low power sleep mode, with single-tap remote wake-up via the app.
To provide an even more accessible user experience, these advanced insights are mirrored on the optional Display 1 Magnetic Screen. This low-power interface offers a dedicated, at a glance visualisation of critical system activities.
