Hi all, new here and have lots of questions, due to recent storms in Houston, we lost power multiple times, and this is what lead me here. I currently have solar panels, total of 23 panels with SolarEdge Inverter model SE7600H-US, it is my understanding this is only a string inverter with optimizers on the panels. If I'm right in order to install battery backup I will need to change this inverter to a hybrid inverted, correct? My idea is to buy EcoFlow Delta Pro batteries, as when I move I can take them with me, and also when I go camping I can take them along, I don't want to install a power wall battery, unless the price is right and y'all have a recommendation. I'm only looking to power essential circuits like my main fridge, WiFi, and my garage (as this is were I have my homebrew, and need to keep the fermenters going :) ).

Or is there a way to rewire the current inverter to accept the battery backup?

EcoFlow also has a home panel: https://us.ecoflow.com/pages/smart-home-panel-2

Any help is good, I'm already down the rabbit hole.

My system size is 9.2 kW with 23 panels.

Thanks.
