The aPower battery by FranklinWH is a cutting-edge home energy storage solution that includes a built-in advanced inverter, allowing for bidirectional power conversion. With 13.6 kWh of usable capacity and 5 kW of continuous power (with a peak power rating of 10 kW), the aPower battery efficiently stores energy from solar panels, the grid, generators, and EVs, and then discharges that energy to power home loads when needed. It’s AC-coupled, making it easy to connect to household loads and integrate with existing solar systems. Built with LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery chemistry, the aPower battery is known for its safety and longevity. It’s also scalable, with the ability to connect up to 15 units to a single aGate controller, providing up to 204 kWh of storage capacity. With a 12-year warranty and IP67 weatherproof rating, the aPower battery is a robust and reliable component of the Franklin Home Power system, ensuring seamless integration and efficient energy management.
