Product Overview
The Ethos 15.4 kWh system is the next step in Ethos’ stackable battery series — a modular design that offers true scalability and simplicity. By pairing three 51.2 V 100 Ah modules in parallel, this system doubles and triples storage capacity without compromising voltage or stability.
Each module contains its own smart Battery Management System (BMS) that monitors voltage, temperature, and current across cells for balanced and safe operation. The included Ethos Control Box connects the stack to the inverter using pre-terminated power and communication cables, making installation plug-and-play.
Thanks to its IP65 enclosure, this system can be mounted indoors or under covered outdoor locations. Its high cycle life (4,000–8,000 cycles @ 80 % DOD) and 10-year design life make it a durable investment for any long-term renewable application.
Ideal for whole-home backup or medium commercial loads, the Ethos 15.4 kWh system offers a professional, compact, and scalable energy-storage solution that can grow along with your needs.
