Game Changer for Battery Backup Announced at CES 2023

[@KeithOlbermannn]

You didn't talk much about the inverter? is it an all new redesigned inverter, or is it just the XW+ or PRO that would be sold with the system?

[@macmovieman1]

This looks like it might be a competitor to the Span?

[@georgeabiad5937]

Will need to connect my future PORTABLE POWER GENERATOR to a fireplace fan....extension cord will need to with 2 male extremities...Dangerous... Wondering if you are aware of any solution? thanks."

[@darrell3643]

Love the concept, however, the price!!!!!!! They can keep it in this economy.

[@WCFAsyncQueryable]

Any update on that? Did you test it?

[@dalerolph]

We did a video on the Schneider pulse recently as they had the product on full display at RE+ Las Vegas. We’re expecting it to be available in January 2024.

[@Dennis47403]

Any word if that integrated panel and meter will support 320 amp meter bases?

[@hoocli]

Does it work with their sense?

[@KramTurbine]

Thanks for the info

[@dalerolph]

Any time!

[@benjaminvivar7855]

Lol !

[@christinearmington]

Compare it to Franklin.

[@xc9072]

Will it be compatible with a V2H/V2L capable car?

[@bentleyjarrard885]

As a legacy Schneider customer with the XW+ 6848 inverter its really disappointing to see a completely redesigned inverter which no doubt will NOT be an improvement on a product that has proven to be a reliable, workhorse that outperforms its published 6800Watt rating by a very large margin.

[@bestshot300]

i heard pricing on the csed is around $7500

[@dalerolph]

That seems a bit steep given the energy center is $3000 before installation. I think it’s going to be around that but we’ll see this summer

[@johnzach2057]

It's going be expensive.

[@dalerolph]

The energy center is $3,000 which is for new construction homes and does the same thing. Assuming the Pulse will cost that it will actually save someone money when you add all the costs associated with a panel upgrade with battery backup. Worst case it’s the same cost when looking at all the equipment.

[@andrewyang1446]

And they’re gonna come up with Schneider shpaghetti.

[@lsdave]

Its a BIG mistake to plaster their name on each product. If they had a half capable marketing department, they would have created a separate "brand" and put "A Schneider Electric Company" on the brand companies website. The Schneider name holds no weight in the the consumer market, and frankly isn't a "cool" name that people will gravitate to...... unfortunate, as they are positioned to be dominant. Will Schneider be the new Sears?!?!?!
