Pylontech US3000C 3.5kWh Lithium Battery 48V
R14 375.00 incl. VAT
The Pylontech US3000C is the world’s most widely deployed residential lithium solar battery — trusted in over 2 million installations globally and one of the best-selling battery options in South Africa. At 3.55kWh (3,374Wh usable at 95% DoD) and 48V nominal, it works seamlessly with every major SA hybrid inverter via the industry-standard CAN bus protocol.
6,000 cycles at 95% depth of discharge — that’s over 16 years at one full cycle per day. Self-managed BMS protects against overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, and temperature extremes. Rack-mountable with included mounting brackets, or wall-mountable. Stack up to 16 units (56.8kWh) per inverter system.

What Is the Pylontech US3000C?
The Pylontech US3000C is a 48V, 74Ah (3.55kWh) LiFePO4 lithium battery module designed for residential and light commercial solar backup systems. It’s the updated version of the globally popular US3000B — featuring improved cell balancing, a more compact form factor, and a higher 95% depth of discharge rating.

The Global Standard for Reliability
Pylontech’s US3000C is specified in more residential solar installations worldwide than any other lithium battery. Its CAN bus communication protocol is the SA industry standard — every inverter manufacturer in South Africa tests and certifies compatibility with Pylontech batteries first. This means firmware updates, bug fixes, and compatibility improvements are always prioritised for Pylontech.
Scalable — Start Small, Expand as Needed
One US3000C provides 3.37kWh of usable storage — enough to power essential loads (lights, fridge, TV, router) for 4–6 hours. Add a second unit for 8–12 hours. Stack up to 16 modules on a single inverter for whole-home backup across extended load shedding. Each unit uses the same mounting bracket system, so expansion is plug-and-play.
Ideal Pairings
2 × US3000C (6.75kWh) paired with a Deye 5kW inverter and 6 × 540W panels creates a complete load-shedding system covering Stage 6 (4.5 hours + evening outage) without dropping below 20% battery state. This is one of the most cost-effective solar system configurations available in SA.

Kefilwe Sithole –
The Pylontech US3000C 3.5kWh Lithium Battery 48V has been pairing perfectly with my existing inverter. I went from 2 hours of backup to over 8 hours overnight. Battery health is still showing 100 percent after six months of daily cycling. PowerVault delivered to my area at a reasonable freight rate.
Kabelo Motsepe –
The Pylontech US3000C 3.5kWh Lithium Battery 48V has completely changed how we use electricity. We charge during the day and run on stored power through the night outages. After seven months the capacity is still spot on. Very pleased with the quality and with PowerVault service.
