LITHIUM IS CHEAPER AND MORE RELIABLE
lithium is not only smaller, lighter, maintenance free and has a long cycle life but is also cheaper per cycle
SCALABLE
SCALABLE
A unique feature of the Power Tower is the expandable battery system. Every base kit comes with one 3.98 kWh lithium battery but can be expanded to up to 15 allowing for almost 60 kWh of usable energy. Unlike traditional lead acid systems, venting is not required, so choose where the system fits best, plug in, and you have off-grid power.
SOLAR & WIND
SOLAR & WIND
Additional Solar and/or Wind charging can be added and plugged directly into the battery bank, meaning that the skies the limit when it comes to power availability. You could install 10kWh of Solar and 2kWh of Wind for example, increasing your overall power to 12kWh. With the Power Tower, getting off-grid has never been easier.
AUTOMATIC GENERATOR START (AGS)
AUTOMATIC GENERATOR START
With an integrated Automatic Generator Start (AGS), even in the worst case scenarios, a backup generator can automatically be started when the batteries hit a critical level. The common twist lock input for generator or grid tie is conveniently installed directly on the Power Tower unit. This allows for quick easy installation and high powered 120V or 240V capability.
NEVER GET CAUGHT IN THE DARK
NEVER GET CAUGHT IN THE DARK
With 6000w of power output, and up to 60kWh of usable energy, Power Tower ensures you are never let out in the dark. It's easily expandable system, including optional generator, grid, solar and wind inputs means the sky is the limit when it comes to continuous power availability.
SAFEST BATTERY CHEMISTRY
SAFEST BATTERY CHEMISTRY
All of our products use LiFePO4, the safest lithium-ion battery chemistry available on the market. Numerous features to keep yourself and your cabin safe. Over-voltage, under-voltage, overcurrent protection with a 300A CSA rated fuse. Lithium Ion has a proven track record in some of the harshest environments including mining and transit. The fume-free batteries mean you can place the system anywhere with no dangerous fumes like traditional lead-acid.
NO MAINTENANCE
NO MAINTENANCE
Our all-in-one systems require little to no maintenance, and offer a 2 year warranty if anything ever goes wrong. With an impressive lifespan of 10-15 years, you have a great off-grid solution that makes sense for your home or cottage.

- Can I recharge & discharge at the same time?
Yes, you can.
- How long does it take to charge?
3 hrs - BPE 2.5 kWh
5 hrs - BPE extended or BPE XP 3.6 kWh
- How long does it charge off solar?
Dependent on amount of panels put max.
Max can connect is 780 W = 5-8 hr recharge time dependent on sun conditions
- Delivery?
Free within US/Canada
- Returns?
Can return within 30 days for a full refund, must be in like-new, unused condition.
5% restocking fee + return shipping.
- Do you have a warranty?
6 months commercial warranty + 1 year standard warranty - on everything
2 years or 500 cycles
- How long will it last?
Reference blog post + run time thing + reach out for specific questions.
- Can I leave it outside?
Yes, like anything else, bring indoors, but IP54 rated (weatherproof).
- How long can you leave it without charging?
In storage mode with everything off and fully charged, leave up to 3 months. Longer periods of time can be achieved, but need to top up to maintain battery health.
- How safe is the battery chemistry?
Link to myths.
We use the safest chemistry available for lithium ion. Sophisticated BMS to prevent accidents/issues before they come up.
- What is the maintenance like?
No maintenance required. But if using in dusty locations, we recommend using our vent filters.
- Typical ROI/lifespan?
Depending on the model, 2500-3000 cycles (depending on model). Each cycle is a complete charge and discarhge. Dependent on usage. We find that typically lasts anywhere from 8-20 years. After those cycles, the product is not obsolete, may have reduced performance (operating at < 80%).
The typical pay back period is roughly 2 years, compared against generators + 3x/week.
13. How does the product compare against a generator?
Can be used indoors or outdoors.
Quiet
No fuel/maintenance
No fumes/safer
Lighter
Easier to use
Lower cost over the life of a product (3-5 years for generator)
- What kind fo applications can this be used for?
Construction
Railway
Transit
Mining
Marine
Military
Events
Emergency Response
Backup Power
