You need a battery cell that dramatically scales up your energy storage without multiplying complexity. The EVE 628Ah LiFePO4 battery cell is purpose‑built for large home energy storage systems, commercial solar storage, off‑grid homesteads, and industrial backup power. With over 2,000 watt‑hours per cell, it doubles the energy of the popular 314Ah form factor while maintaining the same Grade A quality, ultra‑low internal resistance, and 8,000‑cycle lifespan. If you are planning a 30 kWh, 60 kWh, or even larger battery bank, the 628Ah significantly reduces your cell count, busbar connections, and assembly time.

Key Takeaways

• Double the energy – 2,009.6 Wh per cell, enabling a 32 kWh 48V pack with just 16 cells.

• Over 8,000 cycle life (at 80% DOD) for decades of daily use.

• Ultra‑low internal resistance (≤0.12 mΩ) for cooler operation and minimal voltage sag under heavy loads.

• Safer LiFePO4 chemistry with industrial‑grade thermal stability.

• Fewer cells, simpler builds – cut your cell count in half compared to 314Ah for the same total energy.

• Lower lifetime cost vs. lead‑acid and smaller lithium cells when scaling to large capacities.

Performance

Cycle Life

EVE 628Ah LiFePO4 cells are engineered for extreme longevity. You can expect:

• Over 8,000 cycles at 80% depth of discharge

• Over 8,000 cycles at 70% DOD

• Stable capacity retention even after years of daily cycling

By choosing the 628Ah, you are investing in a cell that will outlast most of the equipment it powers.

Energy Density

Higher capacity in a manageable footprint means you can build larger systems without running out of space.

*Per single 12V 100Ah lead‑acid battery, accounting for 50% usable capacity.

With just 16 cells, you build a 51.2V / 32.15 kWh powerwall – no parallel strings, no complex busbar arrangements.

Power Output

The EVE 628Ah supports:

• 1C continuous discharge (628A), though most systems are designed around 0.5C for optimal lifespan

• Strong surge current capability for large inverters

• Rock‑stable voltage even under 10 kW+ loads (thanks to ≤0.12 mΩ internal resistance)

This makes it ideal for:

• High‑capacity hybrid inverters (10 kW – 15 kW)

• Off‑grid solar and micro‑grid systems

• Commercial UPS and peak shaving

• Marine and heavy RV power banks

Safety – Industrial‑Grade LiFePO4

For stationary storage, LiFePO4 chemistry remains the safest lithium technology. The 628Ah cell inherits EVE’s proven safety profile.

When paired with a high‑quality 16S BMS (such as JK BMS 200A/300A, Daly, or Seplos), you gain comprehensive protection:

• Over‑charge protection

• Over‑discharge protection

• Short‑circuit protection

• Temperature monitoring with low‑temperature charge cutoff

• 2A active balancing (when using JK BMS) to keep all large‑capacity cells in perfect harmony

Cost & Value

Initial Cost vs Lifetime Cost

The upfront investment per 628Ah cell is higher, but when you account for the dramatic reduction in busbars, BMS sense leads, enclosures, and assembly labor, the cost per kWh is highly competitive.

For systems above 25 kWh, the 628Ah provides the simplest, cleanest, and most reliable architecture – fewer connections mean fewer potential failure points over decades of operation.

Applications

EVE 628Ah cells are deployed in the most demanding energy storage scenarios:

🔋 Large Home Energy Storage Systems (48V / 51.2V) – Build a 32 kWh pack with one string; stack two for 64 kWh.

☀️ Off‑Grid Homesteads & Farms – Power a main residence, workshop, and water pumps from a single compact bank.

🏭 Commercial & Industrial Backup – Peak shaving, load shifting, and UPS for small businesses.

🚢 Marine & Yacht Battery Banks – High energy density in fewer cells for large vessels.

🚐 Heavy RV & Bus Conversions – Maximum autonomy in a space‑constrained house battery compartment.

⚡ Containerized Energy Storage – Fewer cells per MWh reduces integration time and improves reliability.

Compatibility

EVE 628Ah 16S battery packs deliver a nominal 51.2V, making them fully compatible with most mainstream 48V inverters:

• Victron Energy (MultiPlus‑II, Quattro)

• Deye

• Growatt

• SMA

• Solis

• GoodWe

• EG4

• Sol‑Ark

Communication protocols: CAN, RS485 – supports closed‑loop communication with the BMS for accurate SOC reporting and seamless inverter integration.

Environmental Benefits

• No heavy metals – lead‑free and cadmium‑free chemistry

• Ultra‑long lifespan reduces electronic waste and replacement frequency

• High round‑trip efficiency lowers the carbon footprint of your solar system

• Recyclable materials at end of life

• One 628Ah cell replaces two 314Ah cells, reducing manufacturing and shipping resources

FAQ

How many EVE 628Ah cells are needed for a 48V system?

You need 16 cells in series (16S) to build a 51.2V battery system, providing 32.15 kWh of nominal storage.

Can I build a 30 kWh or 60 kWh battery with EVE 628Ah?

Yes.

• 16S (single string) ≈ 32 kWh

• 32 cells (two parallel 16S strings) ≈ 64 kWh

A single 32 kWh string is perfect for most whole‑home backup and off‑grid applications.

Are EVE 628Ah cells suitable for DIY battery packs?

Absolutely. They are widely used in high‑capacity DIY ESS projects. They work seamlessly with the JK BMS 16S 200A/300A as well as Daly and Seplos BMS units. Just make sure your enclosure is designed for the thicker cell profile (approximately 135mm thickness).

What is the service life?

With normal daily cycling, proper compression, and BMS management, 10–20 years is easily achievable. The cells are rated for 8,000 cycles to 70% SOH.

Do I need special handling due to the weight?

Each cell weighs approximately 11.5 kg, so a completed 16S pack weighs around 184 kg. Plan for a sturdy enclosure and, ideally, a permanent installation location. The added weight is the trade‑off for double the energy density – but it is well worth it for the simplicity of a single string.
