Heavy duty power consuming appliances can easily be maintained with the Runhood F2400 in combination with battery storage B2400, expandable to 19.2KWH.

If you attach the F2400 to 3 x 555W solar panels for example it will reload in 1 hour with free „sun generated electricity“.

The Runhood F2400 is NOT just another portable power station. It’s intelligent and a 3 in 1 Balcony Power Station for your home, designed to SAVE on your bill.

Portability and flexibility out of home, when Glamping or work in remote areas is a mere add on and very nice to have. You can even take the main unit off the system whereas the B2400 batteries will keep running your via Smartplug assigned appliances whilst you enjoy outdoor power with the F2400 main unit.

With RUNHOOD’s UNIQUE bidirectional storage technology, you can power your home with solar energy, earn money by sharing energy with the grid once available in South Africa, or charge the battery when electric prices are low (at night !) Homeowners can easily manage all of the functions with the RUNHOOD APP.

Set up the F2400 and smart plug with WIFI connection through the RUNHOOD App achieve on-demand power supply. In Self-Consumption mode, the F2400 tries to minimize the power import from the grid. Solar power generated by the balcony is first consumed by the home loads.

When excess solar power is available, it is used to charge the battery. If solar power is less than the home’ s power requirement, the F2400 battery is discharged to make up the deficit.

You can use up to 4 smart plugs per F2400 unit – driving power to up to 4 appliances at your finger tip via the Runhood App and save !
