How does the Indevolt BK1600 work?
With the Indevolt BK1600, the energy your solar panels generate is efficiently converted into home-ready AC power. Excess energy charges the batteries, so you always have a reliable energy source, even at night. This keeps your home powered around the clock with solar energy, reduces your dependence on the grid, and lowers your costs.

Compact and powerful
Zero-gap stack technology delivers a compact architecture, reducing volume and weight by 30% compared with similar products.

Bidirectional charging technology
With the BK1600, you can not only store solar power but also draw from the grid. When sunlight is scarce, the integrated bidirectional inverter can use the grid to recharge the BK1600’s battery. This prevents over-discharge (SOC too low) and maintains performance.

Light and portable: Plug & Play
The BK1600 is not only incredibly light, but also incredibly easy to install! You can set it up yourself in moments, without needing professional assistance. That means time saved and money saved for you.

Advanced power electronics Topology
Eliminates the need for multi-stage conversions and achieves up to 98% efficiency from photovoltaic generation to battery storage.

Communication
Local network connectivity: The BK1600 solar energy storage system transmits data via Wi‑Fi or 4G to the cloud and enables local control via Bluetooth, all without cloud dependency. APIs support integration with third‑party smart home systems.
No power waste
When the electricity meter detects that excess power can be fed back to the grid, the BK1600 energy storage stores this energy in the battery. This intelligent control maximizes energy efficiency and helps you effortlessly eliminate energy waste.

Dynamic electricity tariff
With the Indevolt APP, you receive real-time notifications about electricity prices and can manage your charging and discharging plans with ease. Set your target price, and the system automatically charges at low prices and discharges at high prices. Save money and earn additional income!
Save on energy costs more efficiently with AI
Indevolt Smart AI develops tailored energy management solutions based on precise big-data analyses. Using historical electricity consumption data and weather factors, our technology forecasts your hourly daily energy use. At the same time, we estimate expected solar generation from weather forecasts and the performance of your photovoltaic system. With the integration of dynamic electricity prices and real-time battery status information, you keep real-time visibility on cost per kilowatt-hour. Consequently, we automatically determine the optimal charging and discharging strategies to maximize your energy savings and optimize your energy bill.

Parallel expansion
BK1600 offers exceptional flexibility that perfectly adapts to your needs. You can easily expand it to up to three devices, and the installation of the solar panels is done entirely according to your available space—without restrictions. Enjoy PV input up to 3.6 kW (2 MPPT × 3) and expand the storage capacity to 4.9 kWh to make the most of renewable energy.

FAQ
What is the difference between the BK1600 Ultra and the BK1600?
What is the difference between the BK1600 Ultra and the BK1600?
Both devices, the BK1600 and the BK1600 Ultra, feature an all-in-one design and include a bidirectional inverter. If you don’t have a solar system installed at home (i.e., no micro-inverter), you should choose the BK1600. This lets you implement solar generation and storage together and makes optimal use of the surplus power produced by the PV system during the day for evening use. It is the most cost-effective choice. If you already have a solar system installed, choose the BK1600 Ultra to enable storage and additionally connect up to 1200W of solar modules.
Can I install the Indevolt BK1600 myself?
Can I install the Indevolt BK1600 myself?
Of course you can! The Indevolt BK1600 has a plug-and-play design, so you can perform the installation easily yourself. However, if you need more than 800W of grid power, you should engage a professional for installation.
Can the capacity of the Indevolt BK1600 be expanded?
Can the capacity of the Indevolt BK1600 be expanded?
Yes, this is possible! The Indevolt BK1600 can be expanded via wireless parallel operation, and you can add up to 3 units, increasing the total capacity to 4.9 kWh.
After expanding the BK1600 capacity, can I feed more solar energy?
After expanding the BK1600 capacity, can I feed more solar energy?
Yes, this is possible! By expanding in parallel, you can increase the number of MPPTs from the original 2 MPPTs to up to 6 MPPTs. This means you can utilize a maximum of 3600W (600W × 6) of PV input.
Do multiple BK1600 units need to be connected to one Wi‑Fi network and app?
Do multiple BK1600 units need to be connected to one Wi‑Fi network and app?
Yes, all devices must be connected to the same network and added in the INDE VOLT app as the same devices.
How does the BK1600 self-consumption mode work?
How does the BK1600 self-consumption mode work?
During the day, priority is given to solar energy for powering the home. If solar production is insufficient, the device automatically switches to battery power to maintain electricity supply. If there is excess solar generation, it is used to charge the storage, improving household energy efficiency.
What are the advantages of a wireless network for your home?
What are the advantages of a wireless network for your home?
The BK1600 wireless network requires no cables and can be placed in various locations in your home. For example, if you have several balcony areas and there isn’t enough space to install solar modules on a single balcony, you can distribute the devices across multiple locations via a wireless network to optimally use available space and connect the solar modules.
Does the BK1600 support the series connection of multiple solar modules? What conditions must be met?
Does the BK1600 support the series connection of multiple solar modules? What conditions must be met?
Yes, it supports series connection, but you must ensure that the combined Voc (open-circuit voltage) of each MPPT input is ≤ 60V. For example, if a module has a Voc of 18V, you can connect up to 3 modules in series (total Voc = 54V).
