Off-Grid Lithium LiFePO4 Battery Storage Solutions








SO PLEASE for your own sake, when comparing batteries and deciding where to spend your hard earned money, be sure you are comparing Apples with Apples and not Oranges to Lemons!
Batteries are expensive and as the old saying goes, buy once cry once, don’t get sucked into wasting your money on inferior products that are simply not up to the job and will not go the distance.
Welcome to AUS-POWER Batteries, the Off-Grid Battery Specialist!
Not All Lithium Batteries Are Created Equal

Our range of batteries are locally designed to our specific requirements and are manufactured to the highest standards making them ideally suited to our harsh Australian conditions.
AUS-POWER Batteries offer excellent value for money and are designed to provide a reliable, dependable source of power for many years to come.
In fact, we are so confident that our range of 48V/51.2V Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery solutions are superior to our competitors, that we challenge you to find another product that can compare in quality, features and price, and if you somehow manage to do so, we will match that price and give you an additional $50 discount off your purchase for your troubles.
Our batteries are available in either Rack Mounted, Stackable or Wall Mounted and are available in various capacities to suit any application.

Questions You Need To Consider
Lithium Batteries vary enormously from one brand and model to the next
Some of these differences include the type of chemistry used in the battery (eg. Lithium Ion or Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4), the type of cells used (cylindrical or prismatic), the quality of cells used, are they A grade, B Grade, or C Grade cells, and the expected life cycles that the cells provide.
- Do the batteries have a built in BMS (Battery Management System) and if so what is the quality of the BMS? Is it a cheap basic BMS that offers very few features and levels of protection or is it a high-quality industrial-grade BMS that offers high levels of monitoring, numerous protection and safety features, and is designed to maximise the battery life and longevity?
- Can the batteries communicate between themselves, and communicate directly with an inverter, can the batteries be monitored through a PC etc. Are additional safety features included as standard such as MCB (Master Circuit Breaker which provides an additional layer of safety and protection)?
- Do they have pre-charge resistors built into them.
- Do they have balancing capabilities (to keep the cells balanced) and if so is that a Passive or Active Balancer? What is the maximum Amperage they can balance at?
- What is the quality and expected life cycles of the cells used within the battery and at what DOD (Depth of discharge) are those figures based on when making these claims?
- Are they using good quality heavy gauge silicone cables, what about the quality of the busbars used, how are those cables and busbars attached, and the list goes on?
Choosing the right battery is critical to a successful off-grid system and it can be a time-consuming, complicated and confusing process.
When comparing batteries it is important to compare Apples with Apples and not Oranges to Lemons!
Sometime's it's All Smoke & Mirrors
Some see more value in purchasing say a Toyota, or Honda, or something else that represents better value for money to them, something that does the same job (quite often with higher levels of reliability) and to use the money saved for something that they see as more practical.
Batteries are no different. Quite often it can all be smoke and mirrors.
Very few battery manufacturers will actually show you what's inside their batteries, so you can evaluate for yourself just how well designed they are, the quality of the components, and the level of workmanship that has gone into manufacturing that battery.
Just like a car you NEED to look under the hood, this will help you decide if you are ACTUALLY buying a top-quality product that represents good value for money or if you are just buying into marketing hype and paying for an overpriced product.
Our specialty is off-grid solutions and particularly off-grid battery storage solutions, that's what we focus on and that's where our expertise lies.
We have already put in the time and done the research, we know what is a good product that represents excellent value for money and what is an overinflated, underperforming battery that sells at a premium price, based purely on the brand.
It is our hope that we can save you some time, money, and grief by passing on some of the knowledge that we have gained over the many years that we have specialised in off-grid solutions and help you avoid some of the common costly mistakes to enable you to make a better-informed decision for your particular requirements and save a stack of cash in the process.

Testimonials

"Shane, Dealing with you has been nothing short of “....... excellent” to be honest. It is basically how I operate my business and wish the rest of the world did. Unfortunately that is not the case as we must be a dying breed. I really, really appreciate your effort, honesty and efficiency and wish you all the best in the future. Where ever possible I will happily promote your business. Thank you again for all your help.
Daneel Nataly Curraweela, NSW
" Working with Shane on my remote power system was awesome. If you are truly off-grid you need quality and reliability in your equipment. You also need a solution that works. AEC provides this. When you are building the system that is right for your site you need to balance Panels, Inverters, Batteries and Generator. Then you have to connect it properly and safely. Shane and AEC have been great, most importantly they are there when you have a question or you need them"
Ward Horsnell Rylstone, NSW
"After considering battery storage options for many years, helped along by the ever-increasing power prices, we finally decided to bite the bullet and find a supplier who could design and install an off-grid power system that would work in conjunction with our existing grid-tied solar system. We did our research and we were fortunate enough to come across Shane at Alternative Energy Concepts. Shane was fantastic to deal with, he was courteous, knew his stuff and did an amazing job in designing and installing our new off-grid system. We are now able to run 99% of our 4-bedroom home completely off the grid and no longer have power bills. The system he designed was exactly what we were looking for, was excellent value, his professionalism was unmatched and the level of service provided was outstanding, and we would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Shane and Alternative Energy Concepts to anyone looking for a quality off-grid system"
Paddy & Genene Reardon Condobolin, NSW
" After over 20 years of living of the grid and needing to upgrade our worn-out batteries and outdated equipment, we had the pleasure of meeting Shane from Alternative Energy Concepts. Shane completely redesigned our system and we are now able to do things with the new system that we only ever imagined was possible. We now have a fantastic off-grid system that not only meets all of our requirements but also allows us to monitor our system locally or remotley from anywhere in the World as long as we have an internet connection.
Ray & Barbra Hawken Canowindra, NSW
"After recently purchasing a property that was apparently set-up for off grid power, I soon realised that the existing system was not able to meet my power requirements. That's when I came across Shane from Alternative Energy Concepts. Shane re-designed and installed a larger more advanced and modern system that now well and truly covers all my power requirements, including running my Air Conditioner when required. Shane made the whole process very simple, he was very professional and delivered an amazing system at a fantastic price and I would have no hesitation in recommending Shane to any prospective clients"
Chris Knowles Canowindra, NSW
"Although we are connected to the grid, we were looking for an "off-grid" system to provide backup power and lower our power costs. We were looking for an equivalent of the EG4 battery from Signature Solar in the US and found Alternative Energy Concepts had a modular lithium battery system, which we understand is from the same manufacturer, which is high quality, has a long expected life, could expand to suit our needs and was within our budget. Shane was a pleasure to work with, discussing our needs, designing a system to suit and organising everything. The installation was quick, very neat and is now saving us money and providing energy security for all our essential loads in the house. We are very happy with the service and the result."
