Wikipedia says the highest energy density for Lion is .875 MJ/kg So a Joule is a watt second. 200 pound range is 100 kg range. So that would be 87.5 MWS

Lithion Ion? How are they getting that many kilowatts in a 200 pound package? On Tue, Nov 1, 2016 at 6:27 PM, Charles Regan <[email protected]> wrote: No special charger. You can adjust the charging voltage and LVC on the Meanwell. On Nov 1, 2016 4:14 PM, "SmarterBroadband" <[email protected]> wrote: Being lithium do the Winston batteries need a special charger?

It has a solar plug too. Cost is 950$ Small sites has the 1500W version the the inverter and Winston 24v 60Ah lithium battery.

A Mack truck on the highway wiped out 5 poles and we ran on propane for a whole day. The previous outage was years before, and I don't expect another one for a few more years. ...and ideally I'm only on battery for a minute or two while the genny gets started. This was my thinking as well.. With my AGM setups I’m not comfortable pushing beyond 60% DOD.. I’m also paying a lot for 10-year rated large Ah AGM batteries these days.

Tripling the batteries will put you up to somewhere around $4500, for basically the same kWh, but if you factor in being able to 100% discharge the Tesla setup, you're going to need to add a bunch more battery. I wonder how the life expectancy compares...

When I backed out the costs for 14kWh of our standard AGM cells and inverter, I think this price is quite reasonable. � https://www.tesla.com/powerwall � Peter Kranz www.UnwiredLtd.com Desk: 510-868-1614 x100 Mobile: 510-207-0000 [email protected] �
