Third version of KiloVault HAB lithium-iron battery has improved performance, easier mounting

KiloVault has released its third version of the HAB series of wall-mount lithium-iron energy storage systems. HAB 7.6 V3 provides 7.5 kWh of storage with upgrades based on customer feedback.

“The HAB has quickly risen to become the top seller for the KiloVault line,” said Product Manager Andrea Belford. “Customers appreciate its built-in display, easy expandability, and no-fuss reliability as a backup power solution.”

V3 has increased ventilation to improve performance in warmer climates. The unit is rated IP54 for dust and splash protection. The four vents can be swapped out with solid plates (included) to meet the IP55 rating for water jet protection, allowing outdoor installation.

The wiring panel of the HAB has been completely redesigned for improved serviceability, with more space and additional ports on the bottom, left, and right sides of the wiring panel. And larger integrated lift handles allow for easier wall-mounted installation and fold completely out of the way when they’re not needed.

Ideal for expandable energy storage in off-grid or hybrid applications, the HAB integrates with leading inverters. Based on the LiFePO4 chemistry, HAB has built-in WiFi and works with the HAB iT app on iOS and Android. Depending on the charging profile, the HAB is now backed with either a 10-year/6,000-cycle extended life warranty when configured to charge at lower rates, or a 7.5-year/4,000-cycle warranty when configured for maximum charging capability.
