The Pylontech lithium batteries are now part of our catalog and are available in the warehouse for immediate shipping. These lithium iron phosphate batteries by Pylontech can be used to support reliable power for various types of equipment and systems. They have a built-in BMS battery management system, which can manage and monitor the cells information including voltage, current and temperature. What's more, BMS can balance cells charging and discharging to extend cycle life. Multiple batteries can be connected in parallel to expand capacity and power in parallel for larger capacity and longer power supporting duration requirements.

The Wi-Fi monitoring for the Steca PLI Hybrid Inverter/Chargers has finally arrived and it is now possible to connect, analyze and react with the Steca PLI inverters remotely. The Steca FernLite Wi-Fi interface reduces the system's downtime by seeing and taking action on all components of your system. The FernLite is easy to install by simply scanning the QR code that is found on the box and follow the instructions. After it is connected with the inverter you'll be able to track the performance, system health and usage metrics of one or more systems. It allows you to change system configurations remotely to avoid site visits, and receive custom notifications via e-mail if something goes wrong.

The new Phocos Any-CellTM Energy Storage System LFP Series (ESS-L) is a compact, modular LiFePO4 solution offering a safe, environmentally friendly, long cycle-life storage system. Enhanced by an integrated advanced battery management system (BMS), the Any-Cell ESS-L provides seamless integration with other Phocos products. Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) technology is environmentally friendly compared to other traditional storage options, offering longer life span, maintenance-free operation, and overall improved discharge and charge efficiency.  When combining with Phocos Any-Grid hybrid inverters, these important advantages make the Any-Cell ESS-L Series key to offering customers the lowest total cost of ownership over the life of their system.

The semi-flexible DCsolar Power Flex solar panels are now available in 120Wp and 140Wp. The DCsolar Power Flex series offers top performance for highest demands, designed and tested by SOLARA.

No more starting problems! As soon as you park your vehicle for a longer period of time, simply connect the DCsolar OBD-2 battery charger and prevent the battery from self-discharging. The necessary trickle charge is now ensured via an effective recharge with a high-quality, lightweight and flexible solar module. The connection is simple, just connect it to the OBD-2 slot available on every vehicle, and the module will do the rest all by itself thanks to the integrated control board.

We wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Thank you for your continuing trust and support during another challenging year.

Liz from Portugal has beaten the energy crisis before it started and for many years to come! Last summer Liz decided to install an all-European photovoltaic system with batteries that would cover her energy requirements. Now, she produces her own clean energy and uses the grid mainly for back-up purposes. Practically, she bought in advance her energy needs for the next 20-25 years at a fixed low and stable price and in this way she is no longer dependent from goverment policies, increasing energy prices and international politics. 

We regret to having to announce a price increase on many Victron products due to increased component prices.
