Can I use an inverter with my B-TEC/eLITE battery?

Yes, both the B-TEC and eLITE batteries are capable of supporting inverters so long as they do not put more load on the batteries than the rating of the BMS installed. The maximum recommended inverter sizes for each type of battery are as follows:

We recommend following these guidelines even if you have two batteries in parallel. This protects your batteries from being overloaded even if one of the batteries was to shut down (e.g. low voltage disconnect activates on one battery but not the other).

Running an inverter also requires that you run sufficient sized cables. More information on cable size can be found here.
