Why choose the Lithium Battery Storage
A home battery that stores energy from solar panels or the grid for use during outages. LiFePO4 lithium batteries last far more charge cycles than lead-acid batteries.
- Many more charge cycles than lead-acid
- Uses more of its capacity
- Little maintenance
Why choose the Solar Panel
A panel that turns sunlight into electricity. Panels charge batteries through a charge controller or hybrid inverter, or charge a portable power station directly.
- Free energy from Ghana's sunshine
- Cuts generator fuel and grid bills
- Long service life
