The BYD Battery-Box Premium LVS 16.0 is a low-voltage storage tower with lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cells, made up of four modules and offering 16 kWh of usable capacity. It is installed on a floor stand and works with inverters from several brands. Usable capacity is measured at full discharge under the manufacturer's test conditions: the real value can vary with the inverter brand.

Pros and cons
In favour
- Four modules in one tower give 16 kWh of usable capacity.
- It returns at least 95% of the energy it absorbs.
- Compatible with inverters from several brands, including SMA, Sungrow and Solis.
- Capacity can be expanded up to 64 modules in parallel, equal to 256 kWh.
Worth knowing
- The real usable capacity can vary with the brand of the inverter it is paired with.
- The warranty ends at whichever limit is reached first: ten years with 60% of capacity, or 47.53 MWh of energy throughput.
- The minimum operating temperature is -10 °C, and between -10 and +5 °C the charge current is reduced.
