EcoFlow is hoping to make a titanic splash with its new, smaller (but scalable!) residential energy storage lineup that the company is calling a more approachable entry point to its backup battery offerings.

EcoFlow’s new, three-model Titan 5000 range of home backup batteries starts off relatively small with “just” a single, 5 kWh energy storage module that’s enough to keep your refrigerator, lights and Wi-Fi going while keeping your phone and laptop batteries charged. That’s just the start, however, as the system is designed to easily scale up with the addition of more 5,000 Wh modules (hence, the name) to meet your more substantial energy needs — all the way up to 30 kWh.

The company says that’s enough juice to keep an average US home humming along for a full two days without grid power; and that power will (obviis) last a lot longer if you can keep the HVAC system off and keep energy use to a minimum.

All three Titan models start with a 5 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) battery and can be expanded to the previously mentioned 30 kWh maximum capacity by stacking more modular batteries, but they differ in output power and capacity for solar panel system integration.

The entry-spec Titan 5000 Classic delivers up to 4 kW of 120V output, while the Titan 5000 steps that up to 7.2 kW continuous power with both 120V and 240V split-phase output available.

0 PV Boost technology. The Titan 5000 and Plus can also pair with the EcoFlow Smart Home Panel 10 , which the company claims can help homeowners add backup power without replacing their main electrical panel or enduring a lengthy, complex installation.
