ET1 series LiFePO4 online UPS
Swap a shelf of lead-acid blocks for one light, compact, long-lived lithium pack — built into the UPS rather than bolted on.

Designed as a lithium UPS, not converted to one
Lithium retrofits into lead-acid UPS frames are where most lithium projects go wrong — the charge profile is different and the BMS has to fight the charger. The ET1 is designed around LiFePO4 from the start: charger, BMS and pack are engineered together and shipped as one tested unit.
Where it earns its keep
The ET1 suits the jobs where lead-acid is most awkward: a cabinet with no spare U, a vehicle where every kilogram counts, or a warm room where lead-acid ages twice as fast as the datasheet promises.
Key features
- LiFePO4 chemistry — cycle life far beyond lead-acid
- Smaller and lighter at the same backup capacity — for space- and weight-limited sites
- Online double-conversion, output isolated from the mains
- Matched BMS with over-charge, over-discharge, over-temperature and short-circuit protection
- Rack and tower models for different install environments
- No watering or topping up — day-to-day, just watch the alarms
Where it fits
Tight rooms and cabinets
Lithium's size and weight fit where a battery room cannot be built or the cabinet is near its load limit.
Vehicles and mobile equipment
Less vehicle weight, tolerant of vibration and temperature swings — comms vehicles and conversions.
Hot environments
In warm equipment rooms, lithium tolerates heat and outlives lead-acid clearly.
