It combines solar power and battery backup into one complete, easy to use solution, that provides FREE power and independence from the grid. In addition, the AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter can reduce or eliminate electric bills, provides power during outages, and allows customers to monitor their system from anywhere.\u003cbr\u003eThe truth is that when the power goes out in the neighborhood, millions of homeowners with solar panels quickly realize that they are not truly “independent” of the power company because they don’t have batteries in their home to store the power generated from their solar panels. The excess power they have generated goes back to the grid and doesn’t allow them to use the power generated when it really matters most.\u003cbr\u003eWhere the AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter makes an immediate impact is in its ability to be programmed to do exactly what you want it to do. Think of an orchestra without a conductor. It may have all the talent and potential in the world, but without a way to organize and direct it, you may as well listen to radio static. AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter is essentially the conductor for every source of power that you have in your house.\u003cbr\u003e•    Instead of sending the suns power straight to the power company where they dictate the rate, you can decide how to use YOUR power.\u003cbr\u003e•    On a sunny day, you can program it to fill up your batteries first, and then power your house.\u003cbr\u003e•    If you are not home, you can pump the excess power back to the Utility Co. and offset your power bill.\u003cbr\u003e•    Have an EV car? When you get home, you can charge from batteries or solar for FREE.\u003cbr\u003e•    You can program it to power your house at night with batteries and recharge during the day with sunlight.\u003cbr\u003e•    Did the grid go down? In the blink of an eye, it automatically switches over to batteries.\u003cbr\u003e•    Sun not shining? You can charge your batteries using the grid when rates are low and power your house at specified times.\u003cbr\u003e•    Have a generator? Use it to charge your batteries instead of using the grid or solar.\u003cbr\u003eAIMS Power Hybrid Inverter gives you complete control and autonomy over your own power needs because that is exactly what homeowners deserve. The hybrid inverter also includes an APP for remote monitoring which is easy to set up and operate using your cell phone. No matter where you are, you will have the ability to do exactly as you see fit with your power.\u003cbr\u003eWhile there may be other similar products on the market, our hybrid inverters are much more efficient than the competition because of the higher voltage that they run at. This puts less stress on the entire system and ensures extended durability and improved safety, which is something that we pride ourselves in providing for our customers.\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to being more durable, efficient, and safe than others on the market, all of the easy to use kits that are designed for the AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter are from the same manufacturer. This means that instead of having to call three different customer service lines to troubleshoot issues, you will be able to avoid the runaround and work through them with one trusted and competent company. We believe that taking the headache out of troubleshooting is what our customers deserve, and that is what separates us from the competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the easy to use digital touch screen display, the hybrid inverter can be set up using the following simple modes for your convenience:\u003cbr\u003e•    Self-Use – The panels will power the electrical loads first, for FREE and any excess energy is then used to recharge a battery bank. The remaining energy will go back to the grid.\u003cbr\u003e•    Selling First – The panels will power the loads first and any excess energy will go back to the grid.\u003cbr\u003e•    Charge First – The panels will charge the battery bank first and any excess energy will then power the electrical loads for FREE. The remaining energy will go back to the grid. This setting will also allow you to use solar and grid to recharge the batteries if the solar panels can’t produce enough power to charge the batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith all the grid issues these days, it can be said that we are amid a great and trying “power struggle”. The ultimate question you must ask yourself is if you “truly” want to be autonomous when it comes to your power. Can you trust power companies to protect your livelihood and family’s safety?\u003cbr\u003eAt AIMS Power, we think that being “free” means that you have the right to always have the ball in your court. We have created a product that empowers customers to finish the initial job that they started when they installed solar panels on their homes. Our Hybrid Inverter is the final step in taking back control of your power portfolio and we believe that it will revolutionize your ability to live life on your own terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/main\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv
