Integrated heating technology: No more winter limitations

The major feature of the EL-A05 is its optional heating function. Unlike standard lithium batteries, which lose performance or refuse to charge below 0°C, this system is a game changer:

• Performance in extreme cold: Thanks to its thermal system, it can withstand a discharge range from -20°C to 55°C.
• Active thermal protection: The heating system keeps the cells at an optimal temperature, extending their service life even in an uninsulated garage or outdoors.
• Safe charging: The system ensures that charging begins under ideal safety conditions for LiFePO4 chemistry.
• Unlimited installation: Its IP65 protection rating combined with the heating system allows for safe installation outdoors or in uninsulated areas such as garages, basements or technical shelters.

Power and responsiveness: 1C rate support

The Leapton EL-A05 is not just a storage tank, it is a dynamic power source:

• 1C discharge rate: At a temperature of 25°C, it can withstand a maximum charge and discharge current of 100A.
• 5.12 kW power: It is capable of delivering its full capacity instantly to meet the needs of the most energy-intensive appliances in your home.
• Energy efficiency: The system has a conversion efficiency of 90%.

Longevity and safety with LiFePO4 chemistry

Invest for the long term with one of the most stable chemistries on the market:

• Superior life cycle: Offers more than 6,000 cycles (at 25°C), which represents more than 15 years of daily use.
• Integrated Smart BMS: Its intelligent management system (BMS) monitors each cell in real time for total safety against power surges and overheating.
• 10-year warranty: Leapton Solar is committed to the durability of its product with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty.

IP65 protection rating: Hassle-free installation

Its robust design allows for total flexibility during installation:

• Certified waterproof: With an IP65 rating, it is fully protected against dust and water splashes.
• Versatile installation: It can be wall-mounted indoors or outdoors.
• Natural cooling: Its natural convection system ensures completely silent operation, ideal for living areas.

Scalability and smart connectivity

The EL-A05 adapts to your changing energy needs:

• Massive parallelisation: You can connect up to 15 units in parallel to increase your storage capacity.
• Extended compatibility: Works with hybrid and retrofit inverters, single-phase or three-phase.
• Multi-protocol communication: Integrates RS485, RS232 and CAN ports for seamless communication with your photovoltaic system.

Why does the Leapton EL-A05 exceed standards?

1. Exceptional service life (6000+ cycles)

Equipped with highly stable LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, this battery provides over 6,000 cycles (at a temperature of 25°C). This exceptional longevity guarantees 80% of the initial capacity after 10 years of use. For the user, this represents more than 15 years of reliable storage before reaching the standard wear threshold.

2. Intelligent management with Smart BMS

The integrated Smart BMS (Battery Management System) is not just a safety feature; it is the real brain of your energy system.

• Total safety: It provides constant monitoring of voltage, current and temperature for safe use and increased durability.
• 1C performance: Unlike many batteries limited to 0.5C, the EL-A05 supports a charge and discharge rate of 1C at 25°C. This allows it to instantly release its full 5.12 kW of power to meet the power demands of your most power-hungry devices.

3. All-Weather Technology: Heating Function and IP65

The distinctive advantage of the Leapton EL-A05 is its ability to withstand harsh environments thanks to its heating function.

• Frost resistance: While cold weather often paralyses lithium batteries, the EL-A05 remains operational with a discharge range of up to -20°C.
• External protection (IP65): Certified with an IP65 protection rating, it is completely dustproof and protected against water splashes, allowing for worry-free installation outdoors or in unheated premises.

4. Modularity and total compatibility

The EL-A05 has been designed to evolve seamlessly with your energy needs:

• Massive parallelisation: Thanks to its optimised design, you can connect up to 15 units in parallel, achieving an impressive storage capacity of over 75 kWh.
• Hybrid inverter compatibility: It integrates perfectly with hybrid inverters (such as WKS, Deye, etc.) and retrofit systems, whether single-phase or three-phase.
• Advanced communication: It has RS485, RS232 and CAN ports for perfect synchronisation with most communication protocols on the market.

Specific information for Belgian customers - Bebat tax

As part of our commitment to regulatory compliance and environmental responsibility in Belgium, we would like to inform our customers that the purchase of a Leapton EL-A05 lithium battery is subject to a mandatory environmental levy.

An amount of € 124.27 excluding VAT must be added to each battery purchased as a direct contribution to Bebat, the organisation responsible for managing batteries and accumulators in Belgium. This measure complies with current Belgian environmental legislation.

Important: When purchasing lithium batteries, please add the corresponding product "Bebat Leapton EL-A05 environmental contribution" according to the number of batteries you order. Otherwise, we will recalculate and invoice the amount after purchase.

This tax only applies to Belgian customers.
