hmmm... maybe an answer this week? :)

Oh, I should add, Xcel gives the same rebate for Tesla PowerWall, but I figured that was not worth the $$$

hey folks! i recently electrified my house - heat pump for heating and cooling, heat pump for water heater. grid tied 10kW roof solar panels with battery backup, want to prepare for extended grid outages. low frequency inverters (victron) handle surge loads better than high frequency (eg4...

Bump I'd like to add battery backup to my home system near Denver/Boulder, CO, and a friend recommended Iron Edison (ironedisonDOTcom). Anyone have thoughts on their inverters and batteries? Thanks!

Anyone have thoughts on the reliability of the SAJ (Ruixu) versus the Luxpower (EG4) inverter?

Hey all, I'm thinking of buying 2-4 of these 5kWh wall-hung LiFePO4 batts made by Top Band with a combiner box and running them through the Lux Power LXP-LB-US 12k inverter. The batts cost about $2500 each. Thoughts on the batt specs? Thoughts on Top Band? Thanks...

Hey all, I'm upgrading my grid-tied system. I had intended to get the new EG4 18K hybrid inverter and EG4 Lifepower batteries. But Xcel Energy Colorado has an $500/kW incentive if I install the SolarEdge inverter and batteries, AND allow Xcel to "charge or discharge up to 60% of your battery, up...

Any other thoughts on the specs? The battery seems to be twice as expensive as other options, although I really want a wall-mount.

FYI, I asked Signature Solar about wall mounting their server rack batteries: "(the technicians) advise against it. The battery weighs 100 lbs and is about 17 in wide, currently, we don't sell the wall mounts. Their thoughts would be that mounting any batteries to the wall could be dangerous for...

What does everyone think of the specs on their LiFEePO4 wall-hung battery (5kWh, $3k)? I wish I knew who makes them, but it's tempting as I need wall-hung, and we are both near Denver Colorado. Thanks! https://ironedison.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/REVOLT4-Datasheet-v1.4.pdf

bump anyone bought these recently? compare performance and value to eg4 or sok rack batts? a wall mount would fit much better in my tiny garage for whole house backup

Bump. I see the Ruixu (SAJ rebranded) inverter is shipping. Would love to hear from someone who installs one. I'm also considering it versus EG4 18kPv for a whole-house, hybrid, 10k panel system with probably Ruixu wall batts. Thanks!

hi all, my garage isn’t big enough for a server rack case (26” deep). can i mount the eg4-lifepower4 vertically on a wall? or should i find another brand that is designed to be wall mount (not tesla power wall). it’s for a hybrid inverter whole house backup system, so guessing 3-4 batts thanks!
