Thanks for the video but Tesla pw3 is not expensive and you discount the modern panel diodes. Not sure this is a fair summary

Tesla Powerwall 3 is expensive if you compare against a system that does not require batteries. If you compare against solar and battery, then it is as you say, fairly reasonable. I did not talk about panel diodes in this video - thats too much detail for an abridged guide. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi Robert, You dont have to change your inverter at all. Get a battery like the old Tesla Powerwall or Franklin. Those can be installed with your existing solar inverter without any problem. The new Tesla Powerwall 3 wont work. The old Tesla Powewall is fine, though i dont think it has generator connectivity. I think you would be better off with the Franklin Battery. Best of Luck

I like Anker, even reached out for pricing and they never replied. The problem I see with them is they are the only one in the group you compare to that doesn't integrate with Span. I also like the price transparency of Tesla. Keeping the price hidden seems to be designed to allow the installer to make higher profit margins.

Hello Alex, appreciate your comment. You are right, there are a whole lot of batteries with similar value proposition. My beef with all of them is their limited availability, limited distribution and spotty service. Batteries and solar are a very long game and I am excited that Anker a giant in the field has launched a product after making some really big investments. I advise my viewers to buy stuff that will be reliably serviced after 10 years. Thanks again.

@MySolarHomeUSA thanks for the response. Disagree with your comment of availability, limited distribution and sporty service, there are many off grid and grid tie users that successfully uses those brands. I do think you have tried at least once, i may be mistaking. Remember that brand names came with brand name price tags. Big Price tag means big revenue for installers too.

@@alexherrera3918 I am glad we are having this exchange. I am guilty of being partial to big brands. After 15 years in this solar industry, I have seen a lot of really good battery manufacturers go out of business. The brands you mention are actually great products. I have tested some of them. The problem with this industry is scale. If you don't have scale, survival becomes an issue. Franklin started small like EG4 and the other and it jumped the chasm. I hope some of the other do too. And big brands fail too, look at the Generac battery, its a disaster. However, deeper pockets with a good product might translate to longevity. And that is what I like to recommend. For DIY folks, big brands are a big No No. They are much more expensive as you correctly said. If you can do the install and maintenance yourself, you are much better of building the systems with separate Lithium Ion Batteries, Charge Controllers and Inverters or going with brands like EG4 or Sol-Ark. I am rooting for a few other Batteries to hit the big time to challenge the Big 4. Have a great day.

Ecoworthy is cheaper per klw, i been happy with those batteries and i prefer to deal each separate around 260 to 350ah max at 12.8v so not to heavy and if one goes shit I can replace it and move it around. Series to parallel and bms on each , something goes wrong and i don't have to move around 200lbs, yes those ecoworthy can't have more than 4s to 4p and totalling about 53 to 57 klw around that , you can do more on those big ones 48v but something goes wrong and lost a lot probably.

Net metering is being phased out. It used to be, in California, you would net to zero but this no longer the case. A hybrid system is the best. EG4 has kits that contain whole house battery backup for a fraction of price of the big solar companies. A 20k whole house backup for $5k will do better than a grid tie system
@MySolarHomeUSA
@MySolarHomeUSA 27 күн бұрын
Yes, net metering is no longer available in CA and it is being phased out in a few more states like Illinois as well. Solar and a battery are the best bet in those locations. Kits from Solar companies are always way cheaper than getting a solar company to install your system. However, you have to be a fairly good electrician to install a high voltage DC system safely. And maintenance will be your responsibility. If you are very handy and able to maintain the system, it is by far the best route. Most homeowners in the US dont have the required skills and they have to depend on solar installers. Thank you for watching and commenting.

Hi John, Just hoping that the eg4 6000xp last more than the yellow 3000 , the 3000 burn in less than a year :( , i swapped for a ecoworthy 5000w and is been working beautifully but isn't efficient as the one before i think, seems like on the same array is not getting the same amount , anyways getting the 6000 in the next few days for the 2 mppt and few other things, i been working on my own system, have few off grid and including a victron system, i run my mobile home 95% off solar , the other 5% because i didn't install the 240v stuff , only the stove and dryer , been very happy with the independence i got from my systems that i just decided to grow it to charge an EV too , hopefully i will have all enough to do it.

Wow congratulations on your various projects. I am gratified you enjoy my videos. You are going the right route and I think the EG4 will be a good addition. With your EV charging project, I suggest you temper your expectations a bit. The EV batteries are usually very high capacity - 70 or 80 kwh and those will require a boat load of solar panels to charge them. Your kind of setup would be great to top up charge the EV. Best of Luck and keep me informed please.

I got the G4 18K inverter but am thinking of returning it because the max AC output is only 50 amp. That 600-xp has max output is only 28 amps. Micro inverters convert from DC to AC then if you have a battery they have to convert back to DC then to use that power it has to convert back to AC. Very inefficient. EG4 has a 14.5K heated and weather proof for $3600. So you could get three of these for the cost of on Tesla powerwall.

Micro Inverter has many many cons. Namely high maintenance and replacement costs, energy loss for battery system such as DC to Ac conversion, back to DC to charge the battery, and back to AC to power electronics.
@MySolarHomeUSA
@MySolarHomeUSA Ай бұрын
You have to look at the overall picture to make the assessment. I have access to performance data of a few thousand solar installations using both Solar Edge and Enphase tech. The failure rate of Enphase is 1/5th of Solar Edge. Regarding the energy loss - the difference is marginal. And since Enphase has much better control on the solar production and battery charging process, the overall impact is more energy production from the solar+battery combination than for a comparable solaredge combo. Overall Enphase is a slightly better choice, but again its like choosing between two high end cars. You can't go wrong with either. Thanks for watching and your comments.

No worries - even though the panels produce less energy when it is hot, with tropical climate this reduction is more than offset by the much longer hours of bright sunlight. So overall having panels in temperatures below 110 produces more energy than in cooler climates but with shorter days. You are good. Stay the course on solar. Thanks for watching.

Currently that option will not work as the Tesla Powerwall 3 is a hybrid inverter - it works as an inverter for the solar panels and as an inverter for the Battery output. Currently you cannot install it with another Solar Panel + Inverter combination like Enphase or Solar Edge. If you want a Tesla battery with Enphase, you will have to select the Tesla Powerwall 2. There is some talk of an AC coupled version of the Tesla Powerwall 3 being launched - but I have not heard of an expected launch date. The AC coupled Powerwall 3 would work with Enphase microinverters. All the best and thanks for watching.

Gov Programs? The Lead providers are the guilty ones. If someone is older and thinks 5 or 6 years is all they have, you can save them thousands with the 2.9%. Gift, I agree. Most gave a production guarantee and you cant swap without a change order. I've never heard of less panels? Dealer fees I agree. Nobody uses strings lol. Self consumption batteries are way cheaper but yes that should be addressed. With the Tesla we can install the kill switch, give them 20% of the storage. Now that won't power much, but what if their system was able to generate off grid now? By default all those scams are impossible at my work.

Thank you for an excellent PW3 review. I gained a better understanding of TSLA's technology its advantages and concessions. It will be interesting to see how well the TSLA hybrid inverter stands up to 24 hr on-demand performance. I am fussy on the 6 MPPT and thinking of it as having six separate inverters! Can one of the 6 fail and the rest maintain 5/6 functionality or will the inverter fail as a unit? What the failure rates will be, and how well TSLA manages the service and replacement or repair is an unknown. TSLA sells direct to the consumer and contracts out all the work. This is the secret to TSLA's pricing model. The meter collar is simple and impressive innovation. Well done TSLA! It is a safe bet this innovation will be copied by the industry and in time accepted broadly nationwide. How does the PW3 and the meter collar protect the solar array and power electronics from a power surge when the grid comes back on after a grid power interruption scenario? I recall Enphase CEO, Badri mentioned on a recent shareholder earnings call, that Enphase next-gen IQ battery will be smaller with higher charge density, fewer yet more powerful microinverters and have the meter collar option for installation. Oh, and cost less money. We will have to wait for next year to see if Mr. Badri can compete. I think the TSLA PW3 inverter less battery expansion(dumb battery) is a brilliant natural product and service offering.. The DC arc on the roof remains a fire risk does it not? TSLA Solar seems to look past the DC arc fire history. Do you have any data on how the insurance industry prices coverage for DC vs AC on the roof? Ah, maybe I should be writing to your email address ... I seem to be ranting I concur with the others on the back ground music and the bridge collapse. Please keep up the good work. I truly appreciate the education.

@s.lionelmcauley4455 Thank you very much for that detailed and constructive feedback comment. Reading this gives me oxygen. Thank you again. Re the 6 MPPT and the failure question, my guess is they probably run on isolated circuits and should not all fail at the same time. Unless Tesla has cut costs in design. The meter collar will be slowly adopted - there is adoption from the battery manufacturers and more importantly the utility companies must also approve it. So that will take a while. DC Arc fires are rare and today's installation companies are professional. The subcontractor vs company installer argument is now becoming moot. Most installers have years of experience under their belt and do a very good job. Thanks again and all the best for your solar journey.

That's if you qualify for the credit which is not a refund

Correct. The tax credit is a reduction in your federal income taxes due. Usually most of my customers overpay their federal taxes and so they get a larger refund including the tax credit from solar. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Isn't China developing a high density Sodium-Ion battery. CATL is located in China?

Yes, I have talked about that in the Video. There are a couple of Chinese companies who are going gang busters with Sodium as well. But we have more companies in the west doing so and due to the lack of supply constraints, hopefully we should not see the Chinese hegemony in Sodium batteries. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I wouldn't trust Sunrun, based on my experience. They installed a defective roof on my house. I spent two years trying to get them to repair it. They forced me under duress of an open water leak during heavy rains to find my own contractor, because Sunrun claimed they couldn't locate their original contractor who did the work. They also claimed they couldn't find anybody to repair my roof. Can you believe it? So I was forced to use my own contractor and forced to sign a document that Sunrun isn't responsible. Of course the damage to my roof when Sunrun installed it was so extensive that new leaks kept appearing and much of the damage was hard to figure out since the repair people weren't who installed it. So when further repairs were needed Sunrun claimed they weren't responsible and refused to repair the roof any further. Furthermore their last email was unfriendly and seemed hostile, and they made false claims regarding the matter, I believe so they could save the email later as false evidence if they got sued. One false claim they made was that there were no active leaks in the roof, so "therefore they aren't responsible". There are at least two active leaks I'm aware of. The workers who installed the roof didn't speak any English. I couldn't talk to them. I feel pretty sure they were undocumented workers. Are there any Americans who don't speak English? I think that answers the question. One thing to be aware of. Everybody at Sunrun was nice and polite and tried to sound accommodating. But when it came down to responsibility for paying for the roof repair, I felt that they had ulterior motives and their conversations were ultimately strange and not quite right. I felt any friendliness in the end was pretending. Here's what should have happened: I report to Sunrun that their roof is leaking and they simply take care of the entire matter without bothering me and simply arrange a schedule when I can be home to allow the workers in. Instead I have a roof that had been damaged for two years that now needs over $7000 in repairs. No matter how you slice it, Sunrun bent over backwards to not help me, and then they treated me as if I was some rogue criminal off the streets. The last correspondence they sent to me was condescending and accusing. But the reality is they installed a damaged roof and it’s still damaged and they won’t fix it. As if I’m a bad person. That’s how they treated me when it came down to the responsibility of paying. I was completely shocked and horrified. I truly thought they were a legitimate company in the beginning, but now I feel They are extremely risky and can’t be trusted if anything goes wrong. I’m certain they will offer a lot of heartfelt platitudes for a while money enters the picture, and then you’ll know who your friends aren’t!

Yes, but Sunshine mode has been a flop as the usable solar output is very low. I would suggest you go with a 5kwh battery if you want to reduce costs. Avoid Sunshine backup.
