AIMS Power PICOGLF80W48V240VS 8000W Low-Frequency Pure Sine Inverter Charger
The AIMS Power PICOGLF80W48V240VS is an 8,000 W low-frequency pure sine inverter charger, ETL listed to UL 1741 and CSA C22.2 No. 107.1, for whole-home and facility backup or large off-grid systems on a 48 Vdc battery bank. It outputs 120/240 Vac split phase, surges to 24,000 W for 20 seconds, and charges at 80 A through a four-stage smart charger with an automatic transfer switch.
Three thermal and load-controlled fans, marine-coated boards, a direct-connect terminal block plus two outlets, 50/60 Hz selection and auto generator start round out the package. A mounting plate is included. AIMS Power backs it with a 3-year warranty and lifetime tech support. CSE Solar USA is an authorized AIMS Power distributor.

Frequently asked questions
What certifications does the PICOGLF80W48V240VS carry?
AIMS lists it as ETL Listed to UL 1741 and CSA C22.2 No. 107.1, which is why it is in AIMS’ Certified Products to UL Standards category.
What size DC cable and fuse does it need?
AIMS’ fuse and cable size guide specifies 1/0 AWG cable for this model; the guide does not list a fuse size for the 8 kW unit, so the DC fuse or breaker is sized by the installer to the NEC and the AIMS manual.
Can I parallel two units for more power?
No. AIMS states that Global LF inverter chargers do not have stacking functionality and their AC outputs must not be paralleled.
Does CSE Solar USA sell this as an authorized AIMS Power distributor?
Yes. CSE Solar USA is an authorized AIMS Power distributor, so this unit is covered by AIMS Power’s current warranty and supported by AIMS’ lifetime technical support.
What is the warranty?
AIMS Power covers its low-frequency inverter chargers with a 3-year warranty for orders placed on or after 1 February 2026, plus lifetime tech support. Warranty service is handled by AIMS Power in Reno, Nevada.
Are batteries, cables or a fuse included?
No. The inverter charger ships with its terminal covers, hardware and manual. Batteries, DC cables and the DC fuse or breaker are sold separately; AIMS’ cable and fuse guide is linked in the Downloads section.
How does ordering and shipping work?
Request a quote or an order through CSE Solar USA; we confirm availability and freight before invoicing. Nationwide shipping with freight quotes on request. No free-shipping claim is made for this product.
