Keeping the fridge running during a blackout sounds simple, until it is not. When the power drops, food spoils fast, and essential appliances stop in their tracks. That is where BLUETTI is stepping in with a purpose-built solution. FridgePower will launch on Kickstarter on the 17th of April, ready to bring reliable, compact, and efficient power when you need it most.
With an AU$16 early-bird lock-in offer for early supporters, now is the time to secure a powerful deal.
Built for tight spaces and modern homes
FridgePower has been engineered for one job, and it does it well: keep your fridge running when the grid goes down. At just 75 mm thick, it fits into spaces most batteries cannot. Think narrow kitchen gaps, on top of your fridge, or mounted neatly on a wall.
It is just as handy on the road. With the included mounting kit, installation takes around 10 minutes in a camper or 4WD. Pair it with BLUETTI’s Charger 2, and it can pull up to 800 W from your vehicle’s alternator. That means your fridge stays powered while you are cruising through the outback.
Efficiency that stretches every watt
One of the standout features here is efficiency. FridgePower delivers a 93% inverter conversion rate, which is among the best in its class. It also has a standby draw of just 3 watts. That is around 70% more efficient than many competing units.
What does that mean in real terms?
- Up to 600 Wh of energy saved daily
- Roughly half a day of extra fridge runtime during outages
- Less wasted energy sitting idle – ready to provide power when needed
It is a quiet achiever, but a valuable one, especially during extended outages.
FridgePower: power that goes beyond the fridge
While FridgePower is designed for fridges, it is not a one-trick pony.
It delivers 1,800 W of continuous power, with up to 3,000 W available in Power Lifting Mode. That is enough to handle startup loads from appliances like:
- Refrigerators
- Sump pumps
- Water heaters
The base system offers 2,016 Wh of storage. That is enough to run a standard fridge for more than 21 hours. Need more backup? The system expands up to 8 kWh with three BlueCell 200 batteries.
Installation is plug-and-play, with no electrician required. Even expansion can be done in minutes.
Fast backup with smart control
FridgePower acts as an uninterruptible power supply, switching over in under 10 milliseconds. That is fast enough to prevent your fridge, router, or aquarium pump from shutting down. It also switches back to grid power automatically when available.
Through the BLUETTI app, users can:
- Control outputs remotely
- Schedule backup periods
- Receive extreme weather alerts
- Trigger pre-charging before outages
It integrates with Alexa, Google Home, and Home Assistant for hands-free control.
An optional magnetic display screen provides real-time performance data at a glance.
Built to last with EV-grade batteries
Durability matters for backup systems, and FridgePower does not cut corners.
It uses EV-grade LiFePO₄ battery cells, known for safety and longevity. BLUETTI claims a lifespan of around 10 years under everyday use.
Combined with its efficient design, it is built for long-term energy savings and reliability.
FridgePower launch details and early access
FridgePower officially launches on Kickstarter on 17 April 2026.
Early supporters can secure launch pricing through an AU$16 early-bird pre-launch offer. This offer will secure exclusive launch pricing.
A smart step towards energy resilience
Blackouts are no longer rare events. Between extreme weather and grid pressure, Australians are feeling it more each year. FridgePower tackles a simple but critical problem. Keep your food fresh, and your essentials running, without taking up half your garage.
For apartment dwellers, travellers, and anyone tight on space, it is a clever bit of kit. Slim, efficient, and built for real-world use, it is backup power without the bulk.
