RCT Power Battery 9.6 is a high-voltage LiFePO4 tower battery with 9.60 kWh nominal and 8.64 kWh usable capacity (90% depth of discharge). It is installed on the floor, indoors, and connects over CAN to an inverter from the RCT Power Storage DC family.
In the double-tower (DT) configuration it reaches 19.2 kWh nominal. The warranty runs ten years from first installation; the manufacturer treats the accumulator as defective if its capacity falls below 80% of nominal.

A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.
What it really costs
- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
How we worked it out
- warranty years
- 3650
How we worked it out
- usable capacity
- 8.640
- weight
- 126
These numbers are calculated, not stated: they have no source to cite, they have a formula you can redo. The price used is the manufacturer's list price, which is stable and the same in every country — not a shop's price on the day.
Pros and cons
In favour
- With the double-tower (DT) configuration it reaches 19.2 kWh nominal.
- The warranty lasts ten years: the accumulator is defective if capacity falls below 80% of nominal.
- Of 9.60 kWh nominal, 8.64 kWh are usable, at 90% depth of discharge.
- It uses LiFePO4 cells.
Worth knowing
- The protection rating is for indoor use: the tower is installed on the floor, indoors.
- It is stated for RCT Power Storage DC inverters and connects over CAN: choosing this battery also means choosing that inverter family.
- The operating range is +5 to +40 °C: in a room that drops below +5 °C the battery falls outside that range.
