The Solego 80/160 system is a modular solar solution for households and small businesses in off-grid areas. Each system can accommodate a 80Wh or 160 Wh battery and two 50W solar panels. And as soon as the electricity demand increases additional systems can simply be stacked on top of each other. The existing Pay-As-You-Go plan can easily be extended. This unique modularity allows to achieve a maximum load of 1000 W per user.

Solego has lithium phosphor (LiFePO4) batteries with two different capacity of 80 Wh (6.6 Ah) and 160 Wh (13.3 Ah).
