This is the cheapest pre-built battery for 48 volt off grid powerwalls. At only $300/kwh nothing else comes close. This is a LiFePO4 battery, pre-built from the factory with a BMS, circuit breaker, all in a beautiful case. It's ready to go to work with your powerwall and off grid solar system. No need to add a BMS. It's rated for nominal 51.2v so it works with normal 48v equipment (inverters and MPPT charge controllers). This is the Gyll brand sold by Signature Solar. It's 100ah, 5,120wh. That's over 5.1kwh per battery!
Retail price as of this video is $1,500, which is less than $300/kwh.
Update: There is no longer a discount code available.
In the video I do a full capacity test. I test the BMS for over-current protection, and over-voltage protection. Finally I connect the battery to my computer to see what can be read.
Overall, I'm very impressed with the build quality of this battery. I think it's the cheapest at $300/kwh. I haven't seen any other 48v LiFePO4 batteries (pre-built with BMS) come close to this price point.
