As tech does, almost every new model builds improvements to the previous iteration.

While that's not an absolute truth, Bluetti is out to make portable power stations have more capacity, weigh less, and come with greater usability than ever before.

All of this while keeping prices affordable.

As of today, the Bluetti lineup has grown to include a model that has the potential to become my new favorite.

Welcome to the campsite, Bluetti Elite 100 mini .

Here's everything to know about the new portable power station and why it might be the right model for you.

But here's where things get a bit wild — the Bluetti Elite 100 mini only weighs 23.6 pounds.

That's lighter than the 24.9 pounds for the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 , which has come on countless camping trips with me.

Easy to carry at under 24 pounds.

In Power-Lifting mode, the Bluetti can support up to 1,400W.

The nine ports offer great versatility and include three standard AC ports and a high-speed 140W USB-C option.
