How to Buy Inverter Battery?

Yes. Earlier it was difficult to buy online as the technology was not water-proof and the battery was also bulky, so customers had to rely only on local suppliers. But today you can easily buy online. The inverter battery is easy to transport with no damage.

Batteries are important to provide power backup. In today’s fast pace life, no one can afford to lose time because time is money. In places, where we have excessive power cuts, having an inverter battery is mandatory. Inverter batteries are designed to provide a small amount of current consistently for a longer period of time. Inverter batteries are not discharged over a much longer time.

 

In this article, we shall deal with how to buy inverter batteries and the common questions of buyers.

1. Backup Time

Before buying a battery, one of the obvious questions of buyers is about the backup time that it will provide. What is the backup time of a battery?

• A customer might want a backup time of approximately 12 hours on average if he wants to run a 400 Watts load, such as Fans, Cooler, Refrigerators, TV, Lights, Laptops, etc.  
• A customer might want a backup time of 4 hours if h/ she resides in cities where power is expected to be restored faster.
• A customer might want a backup time of 24 hours if he lives in small towns/ villages where it might take longer for the grid power to be restored.

Based on his requirement and the place he lives he can opt for battery backup time and subsequently make a choice.

2. Technology

What technology of battery is readily available in the market?

a. Normal Battery - The most common type of batteries available in the market are normal batteries. They are locally made and non-branded. These are generally flat batteries.

b. Inverter Battery -  An inverter battery is a critical and main component of a home power system. Single/ double battery is used only in residential homes. Anything other than that is used for commercial purposes. These generally come in both flat and tubular technology.

c. Solar Battery - A solar battery is the same as an inverter battery but only has longer charging cycles. 

d. Lithium Battery - Lithium batteries have high energy density and the technology is witnessing significant cost reductions. These are low maintenance batteries and the self-discharge is also less.

3. Warranty

A customer is also curious to know about the warranty provided. Battery manufacturers provide both Replacement and Service warranties. For a normal battery, the warranty is 6-36 months, for an inverter battery it is 3-5 years, and for a lithium battery, the warranty period is 3 years.

4. Price

Price range of the battery starts from Rs. 1000 and goes to up to 25,000 per battery. Below are the different types of battery price lists, you can choose according to your budget:

 

Normal Battery: Rs. 1,000 to 14,000

Solar/ Inverter Battery: Rs. 5,000 to 18,500

Lithium Battery: Rs. 1,800 to 25,000
