BLUETTI Introduces Handsfree Solar Backpack Power Stations

Clean energy solutions company BLUETTI has announced releasing its Handsfree Series, a combination of portable power stations and multi-functional backpacks for hands-free charging on the move. Designed for hikers, photographers, campers, and adventurers, the new backpack power stations keep their devices charged without slowing them down.

The Handsfree series features two models: the Handsfree1 and Handsfree2. The Handsfree1 includes a 42L BluePack1 backpack and a 300W/268Wh power station, providing enough storage and power for short trips of 1-3 days, the company said. The Handsfree2, with a 60L BluePack2 and a 700W/512Wh portable power bank, supports more extended journeys of 3-5 days. The BluePack backpacks are designed with organized compartments, MOLLE straps, versatile hooks, and mounts for easy carrying of gear and devices like cameras, drones, and outdoor essentials.

Both models feature five output ports, including an AC outlet, two Type-C (100W) ports, and two USB-A ports, allowing users to charge various devices simultaneously. The backpacks feature a side-access design, making it easy to charge devices without removing the backpack. Convenient app controls further make on-the-go charging a snap.

BLUETTI has developed an ultra-thin power station that integrates  into the backpack without adding unnecessary bulk. The original ErgoBLUE support system helps evenly distribute weight, reducing the strain of long hikes or extended use. The backpack provides maximum comfort with breathable mesh materials and supports up to 30kg of gear, ideal for long hikes, motorcycle rides, or bike-packing trips.

“Besides fast 0-80% turbo charging in 45 minutes from mains, the Handsfree series supports efficient 2-hour solar charging. Pairing with portable solar panels extends battery life by up to 30%. Powered by BLUETTI’s fragmented solar charging technology, it automatically pauses and resumes charging as needed, ensuring optimal charging even in intermittent sunlight,” the firm said in a statement.

The Handsfree series uses long-lasting automotive-grade lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries, providing over 4,000 charging cycles and lasting up to 10 years. These batteries perform safely in temperatures from -4°F to 104°F. Moreover, BLUETTI’s BLUETOPUS AI-BMS ensures protection against overcharging, overvoltage, and other hazards. The IP65 water resistance rating guarantees the system stays safe in harsh weather conditions. The Handsfree 1 Backpack Power Station is now sold at $299 while its Handsfree 1 + PV120S Combo with a high-performance 120W solar panel is available at for as low as $499.
