Sigenergy APAC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo\/?fbid=881173374443628&amp;set=a.269372725623699\">announced on Facebook<\/a> late last week the addition of SigenStor BAT 6.0 and BAT 10.0 (5.84 kWh and 8.76 kWh useable capacity respectively) modules featuring:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Battery chemistry: LiFePO4<\/li>\n<li>314 Ah cell technology<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Up to 10,000 cycles&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Same physical dimensions as 5 kWh and 8 kWh modules (767W \/ 270H \/ 265D)<\/li>\n<li>Built in optimiser in each battery pack allowing for mixed use of all SigenStor BAT series.<\/li>\n<li>Maximum charge\/discharge power &#8211; 5.0: 2.5 kW, 6.0: 3 kW, 8.0: 4 kW, 10.0: 4.6 kW.<\/li>\n<li>Peak charge\/discharge power (10 seconds) &#8211; 5.0: 3.75 kW, 6.0: 4.5 kW, 8.0: 6 kW, 10.0: 6.9 kW.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Datasheets: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sigenergy.com\/au\/support\/files\/917\">BAT 6.0\/10.0<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sigenergy.com\/au\/support\/files\/1002\"> BAT 5.0\/8.0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Added:<\/strong> A commenter has noted below that the BAT 6.0 and BAT 10.0 are yet to be added to the Clean Energy Council&#8217;s approved batteries list.<\/p>\n<h3>Warranty Mismatch?<\/h3>\n<p>Regarding the &#8220;up to 10,000 cycles&#8221; claim, at the time of writing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sigenergy.com\/au\/support\/warranty\">Sigenergy&#8217;s warranty<\/a> on the modules is 10 years. Sigenergy also guarantees the modules will retain either a minimum seventy percent of useable capacity for that period, or a Minimum Throughput Energy calculated from the start date; whichever comes first. The Minimum Throughput Energy for the modules is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BAT 5.0 (5.2 kWh useable capacity): 15.84 MWh.<\/li>\n<li>BAT 6.0 (5.84 kWh): 17.79 MWh<\/li>\n<li>BAT 8.0 (7.8 kWh): 23.77 MWh<\/li>\n<li>BAT 10.0 (8.76 kWh) 26.68 MWh.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using the example of the BAT 10.0 &#8211; the useable capacity of which according to the datasheet is disproportionately lower than the BAT 8.0 for whatever reason \u2014 26.68 MWh minimum throughput energy only comes to 3,046 cycles; far short of the &#8220;up to 10,000&#8221;. But the claim could still be considered an express warranty of sorts from Sigenergy; so worth keeping a record of.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accc.gov.au\/consumers\/buying-products-and-services\/warranties#warranties-quality\">express warranty<\/a> comes into play when additional promises about a product\u2019s quality or standard are made \u2014 verbally or in writing \u2014 such as what it can do and for how long.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Consumers have a basic right that a manufacturer or supplier will comply with any express warranties they provide,&#8221; states the ACCC.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Installer Sweetener<\/h3>\n<p>Sigenergy has also recently launched an exclusive offer for Australian installers. The company will provide a $300 discount for each BAT 8.0 and $200 discount for each BAT 5.0 installed. This is valid for purchases made between 1 January &#8211; 30 April 2026. Credit notes will be issued per eligible installation.<\/p>\n<h2>Sigenergy Energy Controller Recall Update<\/h2>\n<p>In quite an upset for the company \u2014 and its customers \u2014 certain Sigenergy SigenStor battery systems began experiencing failures due to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/sigenergys-terminal-problem-burnt-plugs-throttled-inverters\/\">melted plugs and poor terminations<\/a> some months ago.<\/p>\n<p>After initial action from the firm, the ACCC coordinated with Sigenergy to publish a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/accc-issues-sigenergy-recall-over-safety-concerns\/\"> voluntary electrical safety recall<\/a> on 19 November 2025 in relation to the company\u2019s single phase 8\/10\/12 kW energy controllers<sup class='endnote'><a href='https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/sigenergy-battery-modules-mb3341\/#en-96833-1' id='enref-96833-1' onclick='return hhEndnotes_show(96833)'>1<\/a><\/sup> featuring quick connect AC plugs requiring ferrules and crimping.<\/p>\n<p>Affected AC plugs may overheat and become damaged, posing a risk of fire. While the Product Safety recall page indicated no property damage, injuries or deaths have been reported, we&#8217;re aware of at least one small fire that has occurred.<\/p>\n<p>Remedial actions involved included a firmware update allowing Sigenergy to monitor each system and &#8220;proactively and temporarily&#8221; reduce the AC output if the product is operating at sustained full load. All affected batteries that were online at the time the recall kicked in had already received the firmware update, with those offline to have received it when next online.<\/p>\n<p>SigenStor owners are receiving a free replacement energy controller that has an updated AC plug; with their retailer or Sigenergy Australia service partner arranging replacements. Sigenergy also committed to providing affected customers with an additional 2-year warranty on the product \u2014 so 12 years instead of 10.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at a very long related Whirlpool forum discussion thread, there have been claims of continued issues during the recall period: from <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.whirlpool.net.au\/thread\/3qrr14mx?p=36\"> overheating to long waits on replacements<\/a>, to the Sigenergy app only indicating a ten year warranty for replaced inverters and <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.whirlpool.net.au\/thread\/3qrr14mx?p=41\">not the promised twelve years<\/a>. We&#8217;ve also sighted reports elsewhere of various issues, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A new inverter not functioning, and the installer heading off on Xmas break.<\/li>\n<li>Battery automation discharge function bugs.<\/li>\n<li>The dynamic export limit isn&#8217;t foolproof. There are still plugs being melted.<\/li>\n<li>Wi-fi issues.<\/li>\n<li>Communications issues relating to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/2342437739434874\/\"> Sigenergy End Users &#8211; Australia &amp; NZ<\/a> Facebook group (run by Sigenergy Australia staff), and just generally.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-96835\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/sigenergy-new-inverter.png\" alt=\"Report of new Sigenergy Sigenstor energy controller failure\" width=\"602\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/sigenergy-new-inverter.png 602w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/sigenergy-new-inverter-300x99.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 602px) 100vw, 602px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Any missteps and poor communications aside, recalls can be messy beasts at the best of times and the lead-up to the Xmas period is a particularly challenging time of year to get anything done.
