This power backup system is available in two main configurations: Backup Core and Backup Complete.
The Backup Core configuration is the foundation of the system, offering 1.5 KWh of storage capacity with two AC ports. This setup is perfectly suited for essential devices like refrigerators and medical equipment, ensuring they remain operational during a blackout. As BioLite confidently states, “Anything your wall outlet can do, Backup can do.”
