BYD BYD Battery-Box Premium LVS 4.0
JouleSpecs does not sell and does not show shop prices: check the price where you buy.
The BYD Battery-Box Premium LVS 4.0 is a low-voltage lithium iron phosphate storage tower with one module and 4 kWh of usable capacity. The design is modular and can be expanded at any time by adding modules, up to 64 in parallel (256 kWh).
It pairs with inverters from several brands, including SMA, Victron Energy, GoodWe and Sungrow. Usable capacity is measured at full discharge and at 25 °C: at system level it can vary depending on the inverter brand.
The performance warranty provides 60% of usable capacity for ten years, or up to 11.88 MWh of energy transferred, whichever of the two limits comes first.

Pros and cons
In favour
- It can be expanded at any time by adding modules, up to 64 in parallel (256 kWh).
- It pairs with inverters from several brands, including SMA, Victron Energy, GoodWe and Sungrow.
- Round-trip efficiency of 95% or more.
- Ten-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Worth knowing
- The system's usable capacity can vary depending on the brand of inverter it is paired with.
- The performance warranty lasts up to 11.88 MWh of energy transferred, if that limit is reached before ten years.
- Between -10 °C and +5 °C the charging current is reduced: in a cold room, charging is slower.
