A few thoughts about the HG They are a 48v not a 51.2v battery so if you ever need to add, you’ll have to find the non standard 48v battery.
I’m curious about the lack of a breaker/disconnect. Didn’t we go through this earlier in a thread that there needs to be a lockable DC disconnect between the battery and the inverter? Not for RS but just the need for a disconnect? I do like how big you can make one stack. My preference these days is to go with same OEM for both battery and inverter. Currently thats EG4, Fortress, Midnite as best I can remember. jay > On Sep 2, 2025, at 8:40 AM, Christopher Warfel via RE-wrenches > <re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote: > > Hi Wrenches, I went through the archives and read the comparison between > these two.
