The AIMS Power 8000 Watt Off Grid Backup Kit (KITC-8K48240) pairs an industrial grade 8000 watt low frequency pure sine inverter charger with a high-capacity 48V lithium battery, a 6 ft battery to inverter cable set and a fuse kit. The inverter charger delivers 120/240V split phase power, recharges the battery whenever utility power is available and moves your loads to battery power on its own during an outage.
AIMS designed this kit for homes, businesses, workshops and large RVs that need dependable backup power without the upkeep of a generator or a large battery bank. It can run multiple appliances, including full-size refrigerators and freezers, well pumps, microwaves, lighting and electronics, with just four components to install.
The 8000 watt inverter charger puts out a pure sine wave at 120/240V split phase, so you can feed 120V circuits and 240V loads from one unit. It uses a low frequency design, and AIMS rates it for a 300% surge to help with appliances that pull extra power at start-up. AIMS states that the inverter charger is listed to UL standards.
An integrated automatic transfer switch moves connected loads from grid power to battery power when utility power is interrupted. There's no manual switching, so your refrigerator, freezer and other essentials keep running while you deal with the outage.
When utility power is available, the built-in battery charger recharges the lithium battery automatically, so the system is ready for the next outage. You don't need a separate charger, and a charge current control knob on the rear panel lets you adjust how hard it charges.
The included 48V lithium battery replaces multiple batteries with a single compact unit. AIMS states that it delivers its full rated capacity and up to eight times the charge and discharge cycle life of lead-acid, gel or AGM batteries. It needs virtually no maintenance and has no memory effect.
Auto generator start lets the inverter charger work with a compatible generator for longer outages. A battery temperature sensor, adjustable AC priority settings, configurable operating modes and DIP switches let you set the system up for your site. An optional LCD remote plugs into the remote port.
The rear panel has 48 VDC battery terminals, an AC hardwire terminal block and separate circuit breakers for the AC input, the two hot outputs and a pump output. A side AC outlet, intelligent cooling fans and the included cable set and fuse kit round out the system.
Whole-home outage backup. Keep refrigerators, freezers, lighting and electronics running while utility power is down, with the battery recharging once the grid returns.
Rural homes with well pumps. AIMS names well pumps among the loads this system can power, and the inverter charger has a dedicated pump output with its own breaker.
Small businesses. Keep essential equipment working when utility power is unavailable or unstable.
Workshops. Back up lighting, electronics and equipment in a detached shop or garage.
Large RVs. AIMS lists large RVs among the applications for this 120/240V system.
A fuel generator needs fuel, regular maintenance and usually a manual start. This kit switches to battery power automatically and recharges from the grid with virtually no maintenance. Because the inverter charger supports auto generator start, you can still add a generator later for extended outages.
A lead-acid bank of the same voltage takes several batteries and more connections. Here one 48V lithium battery does the job, and AIMS rates it for up to eight times the cycle life of lead-acid, gel or AGM batteries.
A standalone inverter only turns battery power into AC. It needs a separate charger and transfer switch to work as backup power. This inverter charger builds in the charger and the automatic transfer switch, which means fewer parts to buy, mount and wire.
Add up the wattage of everything you plan to run at the same time and keep it under the 8000 watt continuous rating. The 300% surge rating gives headroom for appliances that draw extra power at start-up. How long the battery lasts depends on what you run and for how long, so the Outbound Power team can help you estimate it for your loads.
The inverter charger measures 23.3 x 16.3 x 8.0 in and weighs 132 lbs, so mount it on a surface that can carry that weight. The AC side hardwires into your home or building wiring through the terminal block, so plan the install with a qualified electrician.
Yes. The built-in charger recharges the lithium battery automatically whenever utility power is available.
The integrated automatic transfer switch moves connected loads from grid power to battery power without any manual steps.
Yes. The inverter charger has auto generator start capability for extended backup. Ask the Outbound Power team which generator setup fits your system.
No. The inverter charger works with an optional LCD remote that plugs into its remote port. The kit includes the inverter charger, battery, cable set and fuse kit.
One high-capacity 48V lithium battery. AIMS rates it for up to eight times the cycle life of lead-acid, gel or AGM batteries, with virtually no maintenance.
The AIMS Power 8000 Watt Off Grid Backup Kit combines a split phase pure sine inverter charger, a 48V lithium battery, cables and a fuse kit into a backup system that charges itself from the grid and takes over automatically during an outage. If you'd like help sizing your loads, planning the install or adding a generator, the Outbound Power team is happy to help.
