Odd choice of name. “Pila” means “battery” in a couple of languages, but refers to small disposable types (AA, AAA etc.), not something you’d associate with a UPS.


From the Pila website: “In 1880, Italian physicist Alessandro Volta built the world’s first electrochemical battery — the Pila di Volta, or voltaic pile.

Inspired by nature’s own electrical engineers, he stacked metal plates to mimic the organs inside electric eels, transforming a wild phenomenon into a scientific breakthrough.

Like Volta, we’re reimagining energy storage with nature as our guide — building a smarter, more adaptable battery system designed to bring peace of mind, control, and energy savings to every home.”
