Note: Standard 48 V battery bank, so it works with the lead-acid and lithium banks already common in Pakistan - unlike the high-voltage hybrids from Fox and some Growatt lines. 250 A charge and 280 A discharge is a lot of current for the money. Two caveats. First, IP20 and rated only -10 to +50 degC: this is an indoor unit and must not go on an outside wall. Second, peak efficiency is 96.5% and European 95.5%, noticeably below the 98% grid-tie models, and it draws under 75 W just idling. Backup switchover is under 20 ms single, under 30 ms in parallel. Fan cooled and audible at up to 75 dB.
