Looks like half the unit is dedicated to the inverter & charger & BMS instead of battery.
It would be nice to have something like this in 1U rack form that was 100% battery (& BMS) and then have a separate 1U module for just inverter & charger. And have it so that the batteries can be chained in sequence to provide more capacity and/or current.
I'm not impressed by STH's moves, I'm not sure if it's a recent development or I've failed to notice it before. Their articles are sometimes uncanny to read, as if they were written by someone who doesn't speak English natively (which is fine), but never proofread.
Add to that their nasty advertising methods, I'm really disappointed because STH has for a long time been one of my favourite resources for enterprise-grade and home lab gear. I've made considerations in commercial decisions using their reviews, but I don't feel I can trust their integrity at this point.

but those are already pretty crammed full with components, especially on the efficient side
Yeah, there's no space in a PSU, but a PSU-sized battery pack would power a ~500W PC for about 5-10 minutes (at full load).

Maybe such a product exists?
