SplitCool is designed for off-grid applications. The unit itself runs off DC power, and photovoltaic modules / batteries supply DC power. Therefore, using solar panels to provide power is the most efficient way to operate the unit. However, it is possible to charge the bank of batteries with on-grid (AC) power with additional equipment such as a battery charger. Any steady 48 volt DC power supply can power the SplitCool system.
