How Solar Powers Your Home - and Where LBSA Low Voltage Batteries Fit In

Have you ever wondered how solar panels actually power your home - or what happens when the sun goes down? Whether you’re new to solar or expanding your system, it’s important to understand the basics of how each part of your setup works.

Let’s break it down simply and show you exactly where Lithium Batteries South Africa (LBSA) fits into the picture.

Step-by-Step: How Solar Energy Powers Your Home

1️⃣ Solar Panels

These sit on your roof and collect sunlight during the day, converting it into DC (direct current) electricity. This is raw solar energy — not yet ready for use by your household appliances.

2️⃣ Inverter

Next, an inverter (like the Solis model pictured in our system example) converts that DC electricity into AC (alternating current) — the type of electricity your home actually uses. Think fridges, lights, TVs, Wi-Fi routers, and more.

3️⃣ LBSA Battery

And here’s where we come in. Our lithium batteries — such as the 10.6kWh Low-Voltage Wall Mount Solar UPS Battery — store the extra energy your home doesn’t use right away. That stored power kicks in:

• When the sun goes down

• During cloudy days

• During load shedding

• Or any time the grid fails

With LBSA in the loop, your home keeps running - quietly, cleanly, and without interruptions.

Why South Africans Are Choosing LBSA Low-Voltage Batteries

At LBSA, we don’t just build batteries - we build reliability for South African homes. Here's why our low-voltage lithium batteries are a top choice:

✅ Dependable During Load Shedding

Keep the essentials on: lights, security systems, Wi-Fi, and appliances stay running even when Eskom goes dark.

✅ Designed for Solar

Store the power your solar panels generate during the day, and use it at night. No wasted energy.

✅ Safe & Long-Lasting

Built with LiFePO₄ (Lithium Iron Phosphate) chemistry, our batteries are thermally stable and non-toxic.

✅ Space-Saving & Silent

Wall-mounted design means no floor clutter. No fans, no noise, and virtually zero maintenance.

✅ Scalable for Any Home

Start with one battery - grow your system over time. Our solutions are modular and flexible for small homes or full off-grid living.

✅ Proudly South African

Locally built. Locally supported. We understand the South African energy landscape, and we’re here to help you power through it.

Whether You're Going Off-Grid or Just Want Backup...

LBSA batteries give you the freedom and confidence to live uninterrupted — even when the grid lets you down.

So next time you see the sun shining, just know: your solar panels are working, your inverter is converting, and your LBSA battery is standing by to keep your home powered and peaceful.
