Overview
OVERVIEW:Extremely Low Maintenance:The Pilot battery requires very little distilled water supplementation due to specially alloyed antimony-lead, resulting in a low need for maintenance. It also keeps 30% more acid volume per ampere hour, which acts as a coolant, making it highly convenient to use.H

Reading the specifications
Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery is listed with 7 published specifications from Pilot, including ampere of 180Ah, float charge of 13.5 V, max charging of 30A and normal voltage of 12.6 V. Those figures are what decide whether this unit fits your system, so read them against the equipment it will connect to before comparing price.
For a battery, the figures that matter most are cycle life at a stated depth of discharge, commonly 3,000–6,000 cycles for LiFePO4, round-trip efficiency, around 90–95% for lithium and 75–85% for lead-acid, communication protocol (CAN or RS485) for talking to the inverter and nominal capacity in ampere-hours (Ah) or kilowatt-hours (kWh). Storage is what turns a solar array from a daytime bill-reducer into a system that covers evening loads and rides through outages. It is normally the single most expensive component, so sizing it correctly matters more than with any other part.
Before you buy a battery
The checks below apply to any battery. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.
- Compare usable kilowatt-hours, not nameplate capacity. A 100 Ah lead-acid battery at 12 V is nominally 1.2 kWh but only about 0.6 kWh is safely usable, while a 100 Ah LiFePO4 pack gives you roughly 1.0–1.2 kWh.
- Size from your evening consumption. Add up what actually runs after sunset for the hours you want covered, then divide by the usable capacity per unit — that number, not the array size, sets how many batteries you need.
- Check the continuous discharge rating against your inverter. A battery that stores plenty of energy but can only deliver 50 A cannot support a large inverter at full output.
- Match voltage to the inverter, and confirm the battery appears on the inverter maker's supported list. Closed-loop communication lets the inverter respect the battery's real charge limits instead of guessing.
What people get wrong
- Sizing the bank for total daily consumption rather than after-dark consumption, which typically doubles the cost for no benefit.
- Installing lithium packs in an unventilated, hot enclosure. Sustained high temperature is the fastest way to lose cycle life.
- Ignoring the charge current limit and pairing a large array with a small bank, which trips protection and shortens life.
Price and availability
Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery is listed at ₨ 59,860 (PKR). Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.
SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in your country: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports Pilot locally before ordering.
Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery — frequently asked questions
How much does Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery cost?
Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery is listed at ₨ 59,860 (PKR). The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.
What are the specifications of Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery?
We hold 7 published specifications for this battery, including ampere 180Ah, float charge 13.5 V, max charging 30A, normal voltage 12.6 V and type OPZS Tubular Battery. The full table is on this page, listed under model PILT-01.
Who makes Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery?
Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery is a Pilot product, listed under batteries with model reference PILT-01. The Pilot brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.
Is Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery right for my system?
That depends on what it has to connect to. For a battery, check usable capacity after depth of discharge — LiFePO4 typically allows 80–100%, lead-acid closer to 50%, system voltage: 12 V, 24 V and 48 V for low-voltage packs, or a high-voltage stack and continuous charge and discharge current, which limits how much power you can draw from the pack against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Leave room to expand. Packs that parallel cleanly let you add capacity later; ones that do not force a full replacement.
Where can I buy Pilot PT12-180 180Ah OPZS Tubular Battery?
SolarBazaar lists and compares equipment rather than selling it. Use the specifications and price here to shortlist, then buy through an authorised distributor or installer — buying in-channel is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid.
