The OffGrid Solar Panel is optional and comes in 100 W or 200 W models and features a solar conversion efficiency of 23%, the company reports.
Schneider Electric indicates that the LG lithium-ion battery is capable of over 500 cycles with 80% capacity. The power station ranges in price from $319 to $650 and comes with a 24-month warranty for parts and labor.
The OffGrid has been put to the test during Hurricane Helene relief efforts through Schneider Electric’s donation of 200 units made to the Footprint Project. The non-profit organization sends help in the form of off-grid power to areas affected by climate disasters.
