Can I connect third-party
batteries to my system?
No; the Flex Modular Power Platform
only supports Flex Batteries due to the
communication requirements resulting
from interfacing with the Kodiak, Apex,
and Flex Power Stations. No third-party
batteries of any type will function with
the system. Our smart communications
system ensures safety, reliability, and
expandability, and cannot be bypassed.

connect together in one stack?
You can connect up to five genuine

stack. If you want to use more than
five Flex Batteries in your Flex Modular
Can I connect two Flex 1500
Power Consoles together to
double the inverter output?
No, but you can expand the battery
capacity with the Flex Battery, almost
infinitely. Connecting two systems
together could void your warranty.
What is the cycle life of the Flex
Battery?
The cycle life of your battery is totally
dependent on how you use it. Your Flex
Battery could last anywhere from 400
cycles under heavy use up to 2,000
cycles or ten years if you use it to run
moderate loads and take good care of it.
