Very useful. I just installed my own off- grid setup in Spain

That''s great but there are currently no Bi- directional chargers approved in Australia as far as I know. The model shown here is out of production & the V2 is not approved so you can't buy one. The prohibitive cost of $10,000 is equivalent to 10 yrs of electricity bills for me. I'm guessing the fossil fuel companies are holding things up. I've been waiting 18 months to get a Bi-directioal charger so that I can utilize the battery in my already approved car in the event of power outages which I predict are going to be common in the near future due to more severe storms & power station closures.

Installation as low as $300 😂😂 there wouldn't be an aussie sparky that would get out of bed for that money...

I have a catch power hot water diverter fitted and love it on a 6.6kw system.

If you want protect roof against high wind is important because higher wind possible. So depending distance from the house and aim so wind bypass the house rather than uproof it

Great idea, such a shame that the bidirectional chargers are so expensive, consumers getting ripped off once again.

Powerwall 2 stores 13.5kwh

hello. I really like your website and your videos... well done. The battery needs to be outside, is it sensible to build a shelter around it to protect it from weather and heat? Is this a common approach? Any thoughts? Any links?

Man, what a precise educational video, thank you so much!

I have 2 Sunnyboy inverters, one now almost 12 years old, the other only 3 years, installed when I had 3 Tesla Powerwalls and 3kw extra panels installed in my offgrid system. Never have had any problems. In my area, no choice of power supplier. They gave 6 cents/kw, sold back at up to 54 cents/kw. Moving into a new house shortly, Tesla and SMA going in again.

get your fucking facts up to date om all motors get warn out and the cost of replacing battery's in A Ev and that shit box you are driving are around 20K lol ICE cars as you call them will be here for another 50 Plus years noob

Thanks for sharing. Hope these issues are sorted now or at least I'll be able to ask better questions now when I purchase a home battery ... Thanks again

Never Tesla....

Unless u get a battery its actually a waste of time and money

I placed batteries inside my garage and my home and content insurance premium went through the roof because my insurance company says something about thermal runaway blah blah

😂 You can call him batshit crazy, what you're talking about wouldn't even be available if he wasn't around... And get over yourselves politically in spite of your ignorance he made the right move...

I live in WA. I was told by one of your recommended installers that you are a fraud and "influencer", therefore not to trust your reviews or advice. You have some dodgy people on your recommended installers list

You can go with the big guys just ask who the instaler is and vet them your self Had arise twice now and has been mint and 9k cheaper .

I'm in the early stages of considering solar. I've heard that 6.6 kW is the largest you can go without upgrading beyond single phase wiring/electricity. Do I need to upgrade beyond single phase to fill my roof, as you suggest, which would mean a 10+ kW system?

Thanks you for such a detailed and understandable presentation 👋👋

Will Tesla be the best with Tesla wall charger rather than other brand wall chargers?

How should we set up the battery upgrade in app?

nice

Too expensive. I will wait for more competition coming out from China.

Very informative video, thank you. Regarding 3-phase charger, you mentioned a 7kw can produce 22kw, if i use a 22kw 3-phase compatible charger, does it produces 66kw to the car?

Prob be viable in 5 yrs time

what options if your house is only single phase to dc charge

Why can't the grid limit the export to 0 instead of shutting down the inverter? If the inverter is shut down, I can't use it myself. Thank you😀

Great video. Regarding DC charging at Charging station, is it faster because of DC current or 3-phase AC current? Does the charging station actually produce DC current, which past straight through ev's AC to DC converter without damaging the converter? Or does the station produce AC current that gets converted by ev's converter as charging at home?

another kobalt mine crashed in africa under chinese leadership.

Catch power controller now has the capability of curtailing inverter output to zero export, whilst still producing enough to power the house and battery and hot water and car charger if you have one. It will also instruct your battery to discharge to the grid when feed in tariffs reach a certain figure.

$29 today! Probably lot more in the future!

It's only the beginning...

Haha…..but we still pay for it!?!?!?!?!😢 why a ‘sun tax’ at all?????????

"You'll barely notice it" is usually the step 1 of any new tax introduction.

If you connect your solar system to the grid you can easily sell any excess power back to the company still eliminating the bill altogether.

I believe Cupra Born does support bidirectional charging
