After Vatrer Power reached out to us several times, we finally agreed to review their server rack battery. It comes in slightly cheaper than the "name brand" server rack batteries, so we ran it through some testing to see if it stacks up to our favorite batteries from EG4. In Today's video, we share our opinion on whether or not you should try to save some money, or pay a small premium for batteries from an established brand.

Bought one last month, no regrets a solid battery. Free shipping is one of the reasons I bought this battery, you really need to make that clear when you compare it to the EG4 cost, there is normally a $300-400 difference when you factor in shipping.

[tlteal]

I have 6 of these batteries and originally purchased one to try it out. Then pulled the trigger and bought another 5. They have been dead ass reliable. They don't have all the wizzbang features of the EG4 or othrs but for the price I paid (around $970 then) was well worth it.

[OP-fdlh]

The problem with the name brand batteries you mentioned is the shipping price makes it over $400 difference, not just $100. Shipping in the US is around $300+ for the name brands alone where as I can pick this up on multiple sites with free shipping.

[cmault]

Including taxes and shipping at the pretty normal discounted price - this is well over a $400 savings per battery. Working great for me - I bought 5 and no issues.

[sia]

I got one and have both of the EG4 batteries. I paid $996. I LOVE THIS BATTERY! The price is not just $100 more with shipping. 300+

[xjchris]

I have 4 of these in my system 6 months so far zero issues! $1, 023 shipped no tax etc is a great deal. Look little deeper into the cells, I can't build these myself for what they are charging

[unemployedredneckhillbilly]

Just bought 2 for $889.00 each shipped $1778 total delivered. Have a 10 year warranty now if the company still exists. Checked eg4s as my first choice but at 1299.00 each plus $350 shipped and tax came to over $3k. Saved $1200 that paid for the 3k eg4 inverter, wiring, and accessories. Just for a test setup to play with and collect data. They do have wall mounts with communication ports for another $200. I'm guessing in about 3 years the technology will change and these batteries will go the way of lead acid.

[ahaveland]

I live in the EU and got one of these from Germany after seeing a few reviews.
Spent several minutes chatting with support on the web site, mentioned various YouTubers and built up a level of comfortability with their level of support, and also haggled a little successfully.
It's currently in standby with a 3kW off-grid inverter waiting for a power cut so it'll the keep fridge and computers running, or be used for mobile applications in the field, such as rescuing EVs or camping, tools etc...

[goodcitizen]

Hundreds cheaper than the others. Seems pretty nice.

[quellcristfalconer]

That thing used the same BMS I used for my 64v eboard that I built like 5 years ago lol. Really cheap, but also quite easy to replace.

[italozavarella]

Hello 👋 I may say you guys do a great job reviewing the products in a clear, easy way to understand 😃😃

[davidbreeden]

There are several good reviews on this battery in English which helped me feel ok about picking up a couple for about 930 each including shipping. Yea, no coms port, but still a step up from my simple 12v drop type without BT, temp protection, screen, breaker and so on at nearly the same price. At the time the eg4s where 1399+shipping so <1900 vs 2950 for 2. For my small system it would take about 2.5 years of production just to cover the price difference.

[fauxque]

I'll stick to my cheap primitive cave manning. 4- 12v batteries in series. I don't care about monitoring them. I haven't looked at my system in months. Only thing I care about is if I generate and store enough power to run my house through the night.

[szki]

I bought one of these because Eg4 batteries were $300 to ship. after I made my purchase I found a company shipping Eg4s for free. When I went to upgrade to more batteries I went to order Eg4s but they were on pre-order. about 5 to 6 weeks before they would be shipped. So I ordered 2 more of these. Strangely enough, the new ones were a slightly different size. One batch was slightly taller and narrower width-wise than the other.

[Moes_Prep_and_Tech]

The only reason I would buy that would be for a cheap way to extend the run time of my Ecoflow Delta Pro Ultra during and emergency or bad weather. I wouldn't hook it up to a All in one Inverter if it can't communicate with it properly.

[memyself]

Have one, free shipping and quality build !

[thedabbler]

I have one of these. Will get around to a video some time, suffice to say it's been great so far.

[solargloater]

Vatrer battery was a great deal at $1023 free shipping. Using it paralleled with Lifepower 4s. Seems to discharge and top end charge faster than the Lifepowers. Very happy with it.

[NeverTakeNoCut-offs]

The "name" brand batteries in this category are double the price of this thing.
