I may be mistaken, but if I understood you correctly you have
missed something. The Radian is available only in 48v, so four 12V
200 Ah batteries is eight kilowatt-hours of storage to 80% maximum
DoD. Yes, it's small (my off grid home has 26 kW) but one or two
strings may be adequate, depending on the customer's application
and needs.<br>
