The differences that matter

  • Maximum current: 200 A versus 150 A, discharge and charge → it only matters if the system's peak exceeds 150 A.
  • Warranty: 5 years versus 10 → at one cycle a day the ECTIVE's warranty runs out at 1,825 cycles, well before its declared 4,000; the Liontron declares 3,000 cycles, which fit inside its 10 years.
  • Shape: 48.5 × 17.2 × 23.2 cm versus 39.5 × 28 × 18.7 cm → the compartment you have decides.
  • Protection: IP67 versus IP65 → the ECTIVE has more margin if the battery is exposed to water.
