It combines solar power and battery backup into one complete, easy to use solution, that provides FREE power and independence from the grid. In addition, the AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter can reduce or eliminate electric bills, provides power during outages, and allows customers to monitor their system from anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe truth is that when the power goes out in the neighborhood, millions of homeowners with solar panels quickly realize that they are not truly “independent” of the power company because they don’t have batteries in their home to store the power generated from their solar panels. The excess power they have generated goes back to the grid and doesn’t allow them to use the power generated when it really matters most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter makes an immediate impact is in its ability to be programmed to do exactly what you want it to do. Think of an orchestra without a conductor. It may have all the talent and potential in the world, but without a way to organize and direct it, you may as well listen to radio static. AIMS Power Hybrid Inverter is essentially the conductor for every source of power that you have in your house.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstead of sending the suns power straight to the power company where they dictate the rate, you can decide how to use YOUR power.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn a sunny day, you can program it to fill up your batteries first, and then power your house.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you are not home, you can pump the excess power back to the Utility Co. and offset your power bill.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHave an EV car?
