It seems like it is more for remote unmanned sites and edge deployment. It is extremely overpriced for 240Wh. Unless you have very limited amount of space. It's probably not worth the price for most people.

The runtime seems pretty pitiful, 11 minutes for half load and 5 minutes for full load. I guess they're banking on the onsite fossil fuel generator to power this in an emergency?

Yeah, lithium has a large discharge advantage over SLA. You get ~50% more usable capacity per equivalent watt hour.

I've been doing some research and am close to building my own UPS with a Victron MultiPlus + some Ecoworthy batteries. It'll be much better than anything off the shelf for ~$450 (run my equipment for about 24 hours vs 3 hours if I'm lucky) and likely be more reliable. I'm glad economies of scale are kicking in for lithium batteries.
