Pytes has proven the V5° across thousands of installations, and calls it the Swiss Army knife of energy storage. This 51.2V, 100Ah LFP battery stores 5.12kWh and scales from a single module to 492kWh. It works in homes, agriculture, mobile builds and industrial systems, rack-mounted or in a Pytes cabinet. Integrated self-heating lets it charge in winter, and its 0.75C recommended rate (1C max) outperforms the 0.5C industry norm.
