Step-by-step plans for a 48 V LiFePO4, 4,500 W, 120 V system you can roll onto a food truck, a job site, or an event. Written by Unity Renewables, the Rochester, NY company that builds, delivers, and services the PowerBox 10K.

The Blueprint walks through the enclosed, rolling build behind the PowerBox 10K: the parts, the wiring, the torque values, and the inverter settings we use on units in the field.
Every step is written for someone building a system like this for the first time, with the ratings each part needs so you can substitute when a part is out of stock.
Each build has its own diagram page, drawn from the way we wire PowerBox units in our shop: every cable size, fuse, breaker, and bus bar connection, with the grounding shown for standalone use and for prewired trucks.
For one portable, rolling system like the PowerBox 10K.
For builders and installers who want every option.
About 15 PowerBox units are working today on food trucks and mobile businesses from Nashville, TN to Westborough, MA. What we have learned building, delivering, and servicing them is in the Blueprint.
This thing has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my business. Save yourself the money and trouble.
Makes my life so much easier, not having to worry about a generator. Just pull up to an event and everything is still running. Been a lifesaver to me and my business.
The Blueprint is educational. You are responsible for following the codes that apply where you live and use the system, and for hiring a licensed electrician where required. Unity Renewables does not inspect or certify systems built from the Blueprint.
A step-by-step guide to building a 10 kWh, 48 V LiFePO4, 4,500 W, 120 V portable power system, with a parts list, wiring diagrams, torque values, and inverter and solar settings. You download it as a PDF after checkout. Each copy is licensed to the person who buys it.
Not for the portable builds, if you are comfortable with hand tools, a multimeter, and a torque wrench, and you follow every step. Any connection to a building's wiring must be made by a licensed electrician, with a permit, through a listed transfer switch or interlock.
The enclosed build uses a MidNite Solar Little Rosie MNLR4548RE inverter/charger, two 51.2 V, 100 Ah LiFePO4 batteries in parallel, and a Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/35 charge controller. The parts list gives the rating each part needs, so you can substitute.
The parts list shows the current price of each part, with a budget pick where one exists. The two batteries and the inverter/charger are the largest costs. Prices change, so buyers get a live parts list with current links.
From shore power, a generator, or a household outlet through the inverter's built-in charger, and from solar panels through the charge controller. Chapter 9 gives the settings for each source.
Yes. The vehicle install in the Complete Builder Kit uses MidNite's mobile inverter/charger, the MNLR3648M, with steps for vehicle wiring, mounting, and grounding.
