Lion Energy - Lion Sanctuary 3

Description

LION ENERGY SANCTUARY 3 – HOME ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM

Reliable, quiet, high-output whole-home backup power for demanding modern households.

The Lion Energy Sanctuary 3 is a next-generation, grid-interactive home energy storage system engineered for homeowners who need more power, more scalability, and longer runtime. Built with advanced LiFePO₄ battery technology, a powerful 18 kW split-phase inverter, and intelligent energy management, Sanctuary 3 delivers fully automated backup power without fuel, noise, or manual intervention.

Designed for whole-home or high-demand essential-load backup, Sanctuary 3 keeps critical systems running during outages — including HVAC, refrigeration, lighting, internet, medical equipment, and large appliances — while operating silently and requiring virtually no maintenance.

When the grid goes down, Sanctuary 3 responds instantly, seamlessly transitioning your home to battery power. The system is expandable over time, allowing you to scale both inverter output and battery capacity as your energy needs grow.

AUTOMATED HOME BACKUP

Instant, seamless transition to battery power during grid outages — no noise, no fuel, and no manual transfer switching required.

Sanctuary 3 continuously monitors grid conditions and automatically supplies power the moment an outage is detected, ensuring uninterrupted operation of your home.

HIGH-OUTPUT, SCALABLE POWER

Built for higher electrical demand and larger homes.

• 18 kW split-phase inverter per unit

• Supports parallel inverter configurations for up to 48 kW total output

• Modular battery expansion up to 171.6 kWh total capacity

• Designed to handle heavy startup loads and continuous high-draw appliances

Whether you’re backing up a large home, estate, or mission-critical loads, Sanctuary 3 provides the headroom and flexibility that smaller systems cannot.

EXPANDABLE ENERGY CAPACITY

Choose a configuration that matches your runtime needs today — and expand later.

Sanctuary 3 uses 14.3 kWh LiFePO₄ battery modules, allowing capacity to scale from a single battery system to large multi-day backup configurations. Batteries and inverters can be added over time without replacing your existing equipment.

SILENT, SAFE LiFePO₄ BATTERY TECHNOLOGY

Long-life lithium iron phosphate chemistry delivers:

• High cycle life

• Enhanced thermal stability

• Improved safety over traditional lithium chemistries

• Quiet, emissions-free operation

Ideal for indoor or outdoor installation.

SOLAR + GENERATOR COMPATIBLE

Sanctuary 3 integrates seamlessly with:

• Solar PV systems

• AC-coupled solar

• Auto-start generators (up to 12 kW per inverter)

This allows you to recharge batteries using solar energy, extend runtime during long outages, or combine multiple energy sources for maximum resilience.

REAL-TIME APP MONITORING

Monitor and manage your energy system from anywhere using the Lion Energy App (mobile & desktop):

• View real-time power flow

• Track battery charge and usage

• Monitor solar production

• Adjust system settings
