Lithium ion batteries have the advantage over traditional lead acid in that they can be cycled many times more and can be discharged deeper while maintining a decent battery life.
This kit comprises of a 3kW Kodak VMIII 24V inverter, paired with a 2.56kWh 1C Kodak Li-ion battery.
For those not overly familiar with electrical power, this system can store around 2.5 Units of usable energy in the batteries.
This means that at during a power failure, you could watch a 250W TV for about 10 hours before the batteries went flat (250W x 10 hours = 2500Whrs = 2.5 Units of electricity)
OR
you could run 40 x 5W LED globes for 16 hours (5W x 40 x 12 hours = 2400Whrs = 2.4 Units of electricity)
OR
a 1200W kettle for 2 hours straight (1200W * 2 hour = 2400Whrs = 2.4 Units of electricity)
*Not sure why you would do that but who knows?*
OR
any combination of the above that adds up to 2.4 Units.
The system will switch from grid power to battery power automatically upon grid failure and automatically back to grid when power returns. The batteries will then automatically recharge.
