Product Description

BigBattery NEXUS 2 + APEX-6.5K Off-Grid ESS System

The BigBattery NEXUS 2 + APEX-6.5K ESS System is a complete off-grid energy storage package that pairs BigBattery's 16.08kWh NEXUS 2 LiFePO4 battery with the APEX-6.5K split-phase hybrid inverter. The two are designed to work together, with closed-loop battery-to-inverter communication for accurate state-of-charge, charging control and protection.

Choose the system size that fits your property: start with one battery and one inverter (16kWh storage, 6.5kW output), add batteries for longer runtime, or add inverters for more power. Each NEXUS 2 battery includes self-heating for cold-weather charging and built-in aerosol fire suppression, and each APEX-6.5K accepts up to 10kW of solar with separate grid and generator inputs.

Key Features

  • Matched BigBattery system: NEXUS 2 battery + APEX-6.5K inverter with closed-loop communication
