How we assign awards →The differences that matter
Figures as declared by the manufacturer.
- 150 Ah vs 280 Ah, 15.5 kg vs 28 kg → the 280s has far more reserve, but it is a fixed battery; the 150 is easier to handle.
- Discharge 150 A vs 350 A, charge 100 A vs 200 A → the 150 limits the loads you can connect and how fast it recharges from a powerful source.
- IP65 vs IP21 → the 150 tolerates a less sheltered position; the 280s wants a protected compartment.
- Warranty 5 vs 7 years → the 280s stays covered two years longer.

Choose ECTIVE LC 280s LT Underseat if…
your system is large and the current demand high: 280 Ah, discharge up to 350 A, charging up to 200 A, seven years of warranty. You accept 28 kg and IP21, which means a protected interior compartment.
