Introduction
Freedom Won (www.freedomwon.co.za) produces two ranges of LiFePO4 batteries for 48V systems:
Freedom Lite Home and Business: Eight models available ranging from the smallest 5kWh

Freedom Lite Commercial: Ten models available ranging from the 100kWh model (Freedom Lite
Commercial 100/70) up to the 700kWh model (Freedom Lite Commercial 700/490).
Note: Refer to Freedom Won website for detailed specification sheets covering all models
These Freedom Lite batteries are fully compatible with the Victron Multiplus, MultiPlus II, Multiplus GX,
and Quattro inverter/chargers, Solar charge controllers (Ve Direct and Ve CAN), and system
controllers (Color Control GX, Venus GX, and Octo GX).
The Freedom Lite batteries contain an advanced battery management system (BMS) that
communicates, using a CAN Bus protocol, with the Victron Venus device, which in turn communicates
as required to the other Victron devices on the system.
All Freedom Lite models can be connected in parallel with other models of the same capacity, where
one Lite (Master) communicates with the Venus device as well as all the other Lite’s in the system
(Slaves). The Victron and Freedom Won integration has been extensively developed and tested and is
certified and supported by both companies.
The system is suitable for all applications, namely:
Grid Connected with solar and storage including continued operation in grid outage (ESS or self-
consumption mode)
Backup storage or UPS mode
Off Grid plant with storage and solar
