Our off-grid battery comparison chart details the latest modular, rack-mount lithium batteries for off-grid solar systems. These 48V DC-coupled batteries are compatible with a wide range of 48V off-grid and hybrid inverters, which can be used for off-grid or grid-tie solar battery storage.
Off-grid solar batteries store excess energy generated by solar panels. Without them, solar power is only usable when the sun shines—leaving you in the dark during cloudy days or nighttime. These batteries act as a reservoir, ensuring you have electricity on demand. Think of them as giant power banks for your home or RV.
Off-grid 48V batteries generally fit into one of two main categories described below depending on how the Battery Management System (BMS) is designed to operate: Managed batteries feature a BMS with closed-loop communication to the inverter (CANBus or RS485) and can only be used with compatible inverters.
By Sam Wigness | Dec 4, 2025 In the last year, nearly two-thirds of solar.com customers paired their solar panels with a home battery energy storage system (aka BESS). Why?
