​BigBattery 48V Husky 2: A Versatile Power Solution for Overlanding and Off-Grid Adventures

Posted by Signature Solar on 29th Oct 2024

The BigBattery 48V Husky 2 is a powerhouse in the world of portable and permanent energy solutions. If you’re seeking a reliable battery for overlanding adventures or a flexible power source for off-grid living, the Husky 2 delivers both portability and performance. Let’s take a closer look at the key features that make this battery a top choice for a wide range of applications, and how it fits into installing a flexible, dependable, powerful system, as well as expanding or replacing your existing system.

Built for Adventure: Portable and Modular Design

The Husky 2 stands out for its rugged portability and modularity. Designed with overlanders, RVers, and golfers in mind, its 5.12kWh LiFePO4 power packs are perfect for off-road adventures, remote camping, or any portable power needs. What makes it even more impressive is its flat and angled mounting brackets, offering the freedom to customize how you install or mount these batteries. Whether you’re strapping them to your adventure rig or dropping them in as a replacement battery, the Husky 2 allows for flexibility and adaptability that other portable batteries can’t match.

Parallel Capability: Expanding Your Power Potential

On its own, the Husky 2 battery is capable of operating with up to 16 batteries in parallel, giving you the ability to scale your power setup significantly. Whether you're looking to power a larger system or simply expand as your energy needs grow, the Husky 2 delivers the flexibility to build a system that works for you. Not only that, but if you currently own some of the discontinued EG4 48V Waterproof batteries, the Husky 2 integrates seamlessly.

We recently spent time with Josh from EG4, who conducted extensive testing to confirm the compatibility between the Husky 2 and the EG4 batteries—and the results were outstanding. Both brands’ batteries perform flawlessly together in parallel at their maximum continuous discharge current. This means you can confidently expand your system without sacrificing performance. EG4 will continue to uphold their 10-year warranty on their batteries, and with the Husky 2 offering a 12-year warranty, you’re assured long-term reliability and peace of mind.

A Permanent Off-Grid Solution

The Husky 2 isn’t just a portable power option; it also excels as a permanent solution for off-grid setups like cabins or similar situations. In one of our tests, Josh demonstrated that the Husky 2, on its own, could cold-start an EG4 18kPV inverter—a powerhouse capable of delivering over 7100 kW of discharge power back to the grid. While a single Husky 2 may not power the entire 18k system, it’s more than capable of fully supporting a 6000XP in an off-grid cabin. For those looking to build or expand an off-grid system, the Husky 2’s ability to parallel with other batteries provides the flexibility to scale your energy needs, giving you full control over your power setup based on your specific requirements.

Versatility in Off-Grid and Portable Power

Whether you’re powering an off-grid cabin, running an extended overlanding trip, or looking to expand your existing power setup, the Husky 2 can handle it all. It’s a drop-in replacement for batteries that need to be replaced and can also be added to existing EG4 battery systems to expand their power capacity by connecting them in parallel. Its versatility makes it an optimal solution for both portable and permanent off-grid power applications, allowing you to scale your power needs reliably.

With the Husky 2’s durable build, customizable mounting options, and strong performance in both portable and permanent scenarios, this battery stands out as a dependable and future-proof option for energy storage.

Powering Your Future with the BigBattery 48V Husky 2

Whether you’re planning your next adventure or looking to secure your energy needs off the grid, the BigBattery 48V Husky 2 is ready for whatever you throw at it. This versatile, modular, and expandable battery solution will keep your energy flowing wherever life takes you. From overlanding enthusiasts to homeowners in remote locations, the Husky 2 has you covered.
