Same 2,560Wh as the standard ALPHA 2, but with UL1973 listing, a 7,000-cycle rating and a 10-year warranty - the combination that matters when the install has to pass an inspection or the battery is expected to outlast the build around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy this battery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUL1973 certified, with a certificate of conformity published by the manufacturer.

You are paying for certification, cycle life and warranty, not for more usable energy. If none of those three drive your decision, the ALPHA 2 stores exactly the same amount of power for less.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharge on a LiFePO4 profile.
