Description
Amp-Hour is a unit of measure of charge that can be stored or delivered to/from a battery.
One or more cells which are electrically connected together by permanent means, including case,
terminals and markings. Also, the ALM 12V7 s-Series battery.
Battery Management System – The Battery Management System refers to the collection of electronics
responsible for monitoring and controlling an ESS. The ALM 12V7s HP does not require an external BMS
