Growatt’s INFINITY 1300 solar powered generator proves high tech can survive going off grid
Staying powered up regardless of whether adventure or disaster strikes.
In today’s economically uncertain times, there’s a myriad of concerns surrounding the integrity of the power grid. Electric bills are growing higher seemingly by the minute, and natural disasters are wreaking havoc causing blackouts. For some, going off-grid and embracing a digital nomadic life has become a means of dealing with the uncertainty. This has led to an ever growing collection of people who need to source alternative methods for generating power in order to stay connected in today’s perpetually online society. Growatt, a top brand in energy storage solutions, was established in 2011 by a group interested in providing greener, more sustainable energy sources and they’ve just launched the brand new INFINITY 1300 portable power station.
Flexible, sustainable energy without the grid
Capable of producing up to 1382Wh of power while utilizing a long lasting LiFePO4 battery, Growatt’s INFINITY 1300 is suitable for powering most everyday small appliances while also serving as battery backup for tablets, smartphones, laptops and even game consoles. The battery backup can be charged in 1.8 hours using an AC cable thanks to bi-directional inverter charger with no need for a bulky adapter. The Growatt INFINITY 1300 is also capable of up to 800W of solar input and can fully charge in 2.5 hours when under full sun thanks to its high efficiency MPPT controller. Besides, the Growatt solar generator is capable of being charged via an array of solar situations thanks to its wide input voltage range.
An impressive 1800W output capacity means you can safely run multiple low wattage devices simultaneously. Need to charge your laptop and make a cup of coffee before starting work at your off-grid cabin? Not only can the INFINITY 1300 handle that power load easily, it can also be trusted to withstand multiple uses — up to 3000 charge cycles or enough for 10 years. The INFINITY 1300 can be added to your off grid power setup by pre ordering between April 17 and April 30 to get $300. That’s sustainable, reliable clean energy for just $999.
Back up power you can trust in an emergency
The INFINITY 1300 is not only suitable for powering your devices while off grid, it’s also great with the UPS (uninterrupted power supply) feature it supports. In the event that you or a loved one relies on medical equipment that needs to maintain an electrical connection, the INFINITY 1300 can be used as a backup power supply in the event of a life threatening power outage. It takes less than 20 milliseconds for the INFINITY 1300 to take over following the start of a power outage which is quick enough to prevent computers and other devices from shutting down abruptly. While the power is out, you can trust the INFINITY 1300 to power a device such as a CPAP machine for approximately 20 hours on a full charge.
As with all things electrical, safety needs to be of the utmost importance and the INFINITY 1300 doesn’t slouch when it comes to safety precautions. The battery management system is capable of monitoring under and over voltage, over current and short circuit protection, overcharging voltage and temperature protection. A Growatt app is also readily available for additional monitoring via bluetooth or wifi, and even allows for firmware updates to the power station. Up to three power stations can be run parallel to one another to expand battery capacity. As is standard with all Growatt devices, the INFINITY 1300 comes with a 5 year warranty. Add the INFINITY 1300 to your off grid power setup by pre ordering between April 17 and April 30 to get $300 off. That’s sustainable and reliable clean energy for just $999.
Since their establishment in 2011, Growatt has grown to become a widely respected leader in providing green energy solutions and their inverters and energy storage systems have won a multitude of awards and accolades over the years. The company has grown to provide green power technology to more than 180 countries and regions and strives to lead the charge in research and development for the sustainable energy industry. Their latest generator, the INFINITY 1300, can be preordered from April 17 to April 30th at a $300 discount, lowering the price from $1299 to $999.
