The CHLX Series lithium kilovault battery includes all the advantages of the HLX Series with the added benefit of cold weather operation. Internal heating technology allows the battery to continue charging, even when the ambient temperature is well below zero. These 1800wh / 150 amp hour LiFePO4 batteries are cold-rated, smarter, safer, and make for longer-lasting energy storage.
Take Charge Even When Its Freezing
When the ambient temperature is below 32ºF / 0°C, the charging current will flow to heating film to warm up the battery first, and switch to normal charging when the battery internal temperature raises up to 32ºF / 0°C.
The Safer Lithium Battery Technology
KiloVault’s LFP technology isn’t subject to the thermal run-away issues as with other lithium technologies. No active cooling needed.
Deep Cycle, Up to 100% DoD
Hammer the battery with 100% discharge every day and even after 2000 cycles 80%+ of the battery’s capacity will be there for you. Discharge it less and the story gets even better.
Higher Efficiency, Less Waste
You’ll get 8 to 14% more usable stored energy compared to lead acid batteries thanks to higher efficiencies in the HLX series.
Smart Investment
HLX series has lower cost per watt-hour stored per cycle than lead acid batteries due to long cycle life and greater depth of discharge capability.
Integrated Bluetooth for Monitoring
Built-in Bluetooth and the convenient KiloVault HLX app make monitoring battery health and performance easy.
Operating Temperature Range Charging: 32 - 113°F (0 - 45°C) (Internal to Battery) Discharging: -4 - 140°F (-20 – 60°C)
Ambient Temperature Range Charging: -22 to 113ºF (-30 to 45ºC) (External to Battery)
Internal Heating: Approx. 1.5 hours to warm battery from -22ºF to 32ºF ( -30ºC to 0°C)
Optimal Temperature Range: 59 – 95°F (15 – 35°C)
Self-Discharge Rate: ≤2% per month
Estimated # of Cycles Until 80%: 2000 cycles @ 100% Depth of Discharge of Rated Wh Capacity Remains 5000 cycles @ 80% Depth of Discharge
Voltage Configurations: 12, 24, 36 or 48V
Maximum Configuration: 4 batteries in parallel OR 4 batteries in series (4) - not both
Battery Management System: Monitors and optimizes charge and discharge for each cell, provides overcharge, over discharge, temperature and short circuit protection
Maximum Time Between Charges 6 months
Warranty 7.5 Year Limited Warranty
Monitoring Built-in Bluetooth and HLX app for on-site battery status monitoring
The 1800 CHLX heater is 96W while the 3600 CHLX heater is 192W.
Maximum of 4 batteries can be used in series or parallel, but not both. The CHLX are programmed so that when they are in parallel or series, if one gets cold enough to start heating, all of the CHLX in series or parallel will start heating. This is to prevent widely different power draws and states of charge in the battery bank when some are heating and cannot charge, while others are warm enough to charge. As the communication between the CHLX happens through the power cables, if connected this way, this communication can not take place.
In both batteries, the heater starts at an external temperature of 0°C (32°F).
Heating stops when the battery reaches an internal temperature of 10°C (50°F). However, the battery will continue heating even after the battery reaches low temp protection release of 39°F (4°C).
Below an external temperature of -30°C (-22°F), the heat dissipation is too great to bring the battery up to temp.
When the batteries are on an AC charger, it takes about 2 hours to warm the battery from an internal temperature of -30°C (-22°F) to 10°C (50°F).
It will take about 1.5 hours to warm the battery from an internal temperature of -20°C (-4°F) to 10°C (50°F).
When the batteries are charging with solar, it might take a longer time, depending upon the charger output.
BEFORE COMMISSIONING YOUR SYSTEM..
1) Each battery must be individually charged to 14.0V before placing it into operation with other batteries. Otherwise, the batteries will independently hit ‘full’ or ‘empty’ and shut off before others in the same battery bank.
2) Equalization charge must be turned off in your solar charge controller or AC charger. If left on, the equalization charge will raise the voltage too high, damage the batteries and void the warranty.
3) Bulk/Absorption charge voltage should be set to no higher than 14.0V for a 12V system, 28.0V for 24V system, and 56.0V for a 48V system (and lower for high amp chargers). Going any higher risks one or more batteries automatically shutting off in a high voltage protection mode.
4) Similarly, the ‘Low Voltage Cut-Off’ on the inverter should be set for no lower than 12.0V, 24.0V and 48.0V for a 12V, 24V and 48V system, respectively. Going any lower risks one or more batteries automatically shutting off in a low voltage protection mode.
5) When turning on breakers to inverters, charge controllers, battery monitors, etc. connected to the batteries wait 45-60 seconds between powering up each device. The KiloVault’s battery management system has special circuitry to detect short circuits and protect itself. Many brands of inverters, charge controllers and battery monitors will present a very high but very brief surge that can be interpreted as a short. The KiloVault can handle one of these ‘shorts’ every 45-60 seconds.
Alternatively, in most circumstances all devices can be powered up at once but the batteries will go into auto-protect mode and turn off for 30-60 seconds but then restart normally.
6) Be sure to tighten the battery terminals before operating. Failure to do so will lead to the terminals overheating, melting the case and potentially cause a fire.

EG4 off-grid base kit, Happy with my purchase.
This is the first stage of my three planned purches. I got the eg4 inverter 6000 XP base kit with six 400 watt panels and the two server rack batteries. Did a little online research and followed the instructions and it got set up without any issues. Right now I'm just running it in my garage on a single outlet and have been running dual 750 watt water distillers with it. Once I get the second inverter and a bunch more panels and batteries, I plan on attaching it to my subpanel in my house that has my lights and outlets and appliances on it. Then I'll get a soft start for my AC and blower and run it on my main panel.

Easy Process, Genuine Support
Trying to pick the correct solar system for your needs can be very technical and frustrating. I wanted to thank Yvhan and the Shop Solar team for their patience and helpful attitudes through multiple calls. I feel like we were able to narrow it down to what worked for me and my family. My system works great and I couldn't be happier to have picked Shop Solar.

Off Grid Solar Purchase
I wanted to get an offgrid solar system for years but didn’t know where to start. I found Shop Solar on Facebook and decided to submit a quote. Within 24 hours I had a custom proposal that was almost half the price of the companies I had previously got quotes from. My wife and I decided to order online and the kit came in a timely manner and it was an easy install. Great company to work with!
