What our Experts Think
-
All‑round off‑grid powerhouse — Combines a 12 kW inverter with a 20.4 kWh LiFePO₄ battery bank, giving enough capacity and output to run most household loads or a small off‑grid home reliably.
-
Large energy storage with strong output — 20.4 kWh capacity provides extended runtime, while the 12 kW inverter output handles heavy loads (appliances, tools, HVAC), making it versatile for homes, cabins, or remote installations.
-
Ready for real-world demands — Solid battery chemistry and robust BMS ensure deep‑cycle durability and stable power delivery, even under demanding or fluctuating load conditions.
-
Simplifies system design — As a packaged solution, it reduces complexity, wiring, and compatibility issues — a convenient way to deploy a complete off‑grid power system with minimal configuration.
-
Scalable & future‑proof — The system can be expanded or paired with solar, generators, or additional modules, allowing users to grow their setup as needs evolve.
Q&A

Q: What types of users or setups is this system best for?
A: Tiny homes, cabins, off-grid residences, remote homesteads, backup-power installations, and other structures needing robust solar + battery storage.
Q: What are the main benefits compared with simpler battery setups or lead-acid systems?
A: Higher usable energy, maintenance-free operation, safer LiFePO₄ chemistry, longer lifespan, compact modular design, and integrated off-grid or backup functionality.
Q: Is the system scalable or modular?
A: Yes, additional ETHOS battery modules can be added to expand storage capacity and increase backup duration.
Maintenance Tips
-
Install the ETHOS system in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to ensure optimal performance and prevent overheating.
-
Regularly inspect all wiring, terminals, and connections for looseness, corrosion, or damage to maintain safe off-grid operation.
-
Keep the system exterior clean and dust-free using a soft, dry cloth to avoid heat buildup.
-
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures to preserve internal components.
-
Monitor battery state of charge and avoid deep discharges to maintain long-term capacity and efficiency.
-
During extended periods of non-use, keep the system at 50–60% charge and disconnect from all loads and power sources.
