Ford Lightning

Welcome to Washington Electric, your one-stop-shop for all your electrical needs. We are proud to announce that we now offer the installation of the F-150 Ford Lightning Bi-directional inverter system, which allows you to use your truck to power your home during a power outage. This innovative system provides the best of both worlds as your truck battery gets multiple uses, making it the best pricing per kWh you can purchase in home standby battery technology.

At Washington Electric, we understand the importance of having a reliable power source during an outage. That’s why we are excited to offer the Ford Lightning Bi-directional inverter system as a solution to your power needs. With this system, you can use your Ford F-150 Lightning to power your home for hours or even days in the event of an outage.
Our team of certified and experienced electricians can install the Ford Lightning Bi-directional inverter system directly at your home or business. We are committed to providing the highest quality workmanship and customer service. You can count on us to get the job done right the first time, every time.
To schedule an installation or to learn more about the Ford Lightning Bi-directional inverter system, give us a call at 253-200-1119. We are available to answer any questions you may have and to provide you with a free estimate.

Alternatively, you can choose to work with Ford’s certified partner Sunrun, but you will probably find us there in Seattle! We’re the number one installer!
Don’t wait until the next power outage to think about your backup power needs. Contact Washington Electric today and let us help you keep your home or business powered up and running.
