How we assign awards →The differences that matter
- Ingress protection, IP21 vs IP65 → only the 460S can sit where water and dust get in; the 320s has to stay sheltered.
- Capacity, 320 Ah vs 460 Ah → more reserve on board with the 460S, at the cost of 7.3 kg more.
- Maximum current, 200 A vs 300 A → the 460S allows heavier loads and charging.
- Declared cycles, 6800 vs 4000, with the same 7-year warranty → the 320s declares more cycles, but the expiry date is the same.
