Differentiating Features
Soft Start:  When you send the connect command, the module activates the CLC "Current Limited Charger" which will limit the current to 1A until the terminal voltage is within 1V of the internal capacitor bank voltage.

Safe Start: If the voltage of the terminals are not within safe range of the module internal voltage, only the CLC will activate and the SSR will not turn on until it is safe to do so.

In Field Components Swop Out:  No need to remove unit from site for repairs, all components can be swoped out on site.  Most parts are plug-and-play design.

In Field Capacity Upgrade: Should the battery lose capacity, spare rows are incorporated in the designed in order restore the original capacity without removing unit from site.

Remote Firmware Upgrade:  Battery can be connected through Wi-Fi.

loT:  Monitoring caps performance through Internet of Things.
