The Anker brand can be trusted. I have used their products on a smaller scale for over a decade with zero issues.

[@finn_h06]

I have a powersupply from anker with 4 usb ports on it under my desk and it has been running for 4 years on full load with out unplugging it from the wall and i had zero problems so far. Really good Product that they have.

[@tomblewomble3369]

Thanks Xi

[@kalebchoi6372]

idk. with their security camera situation, id be fine with using chargers and stuff like that, but digital things prob not

[@piratebuddy]

@@kalebchoi6372 im with you all the way on that one

[@sirnh]

Generally, Anker can be trusted. BUT, I would not be an early adopter of their Solix F2000 batteries with expansion and the device had practically bricked itself when it totally ran out of power because of a firmware bug. Every time I would try to recharge it, it would shut down charging after just a couple of minutes. In order to fix the problem, I had to keep repeating this recharging scenario every few minutes until there was enough power to update the firmware. It's been great ever since, but I wouldn't buy an expensive product like this from Anker for the first 6 months. Unlike other whole-home battery systems, I might question what Anker's capabilities of servicing the battery in your home might be.

[@ellieandjared]

Woah! Might need to get a couple of these for our house too. Love a good backup solution. 🙌🏻

Hey Ben, let me know when you can install the system. 😆

[@LeapPower-nq7te]

Glad to see your guys like this product.

[@bilalchandio1]

I already in love with Anker power banks.

[@user-hp1gn5mg7c]

Based on some info on the internet, cost about 11-12k for each unit including installation. Each unit can max out at 13.3 KWH. I am thinking about getting 2 units for my house, I live in South Texas where power is unreliable and goes down anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. During a big storm like Harvey, the power grid went down for 28 hours. Price is a bit still expensive, I might also wait since I already have a gas generator.

[@danmccoy6164]

I just bought 5 powerpro batteries 14.3 kwh each 71.5 kwh. For $16,885 delivered. I will self instal. And have a licenced electrician hook them up.

[@S3XYdriver]

Great to see another player in the market. We welcome the competition!!

All of the Anker products I have purchased have been high quality

[@kevinmcreynolds7520]

I love IBA thats where my mom is from. Things have changed a lot since then mainly the last 10 years but still a great place to visit.

I was even born there!!

Very cool, always been a very big fan of anker!

[@criticalhadlock886]

Great video! That setup is impressive. Hey Dan; if EcoFlow reaches out to you for a similar video for the EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra, I have a house that can be the install house 😂 I used to be your neighbor on Auburn drive. Is that as good as a former mission companion ? 😃

[@user-zm3zx5hd3h]

So, the ultimate question is . . . . . How much does it cost????

[@user-bh8of7os5e]

That's the main and the most important question.

[@buh5995]

maybe 50$ per KWh ???

[@alloy5317]

@@buh5995 There is no KWh price guessing when installing solar power. Inverter and panels are in KW and batteries are in KWh.

[@buh5995]

@@alloy5317 that's why i asked about KWh as the product mainly a battery.

[@mamimumemo2470]

30k$ at least

[@MDJ930]

That is some useful information. I'm researching solar and real world use is what matters. Thanks for the video

I guess it pays to have Dan as your friend 😁 I’ll bet he was stoked 😇

Iba, Zambales is a big town now! The neighboring town is now a surf town!

[@markarca6360]

There are lots of resorts there, and big fastfood chains are popping up one by one.

[@nelsondog100]

Hey Anker, when will we see distribution in the Philippines?

[@Hotcakes0007]

Air Conditioning test would have been great!

[@Anchor2012]

Yes, I would like to have seen high surge load test, say an older A/C system with no soft start.

Love Anker, how big is the battery? Does anker had solar as well?

[@FilipBzik]

What is the ROI on those battery storage?

[@victor17m]

Increíble in the next few years we will see a section for these batteries at lowes and home depot

[@kinfin8982]

If someone gets a quote please post the amount the unit and installation cost. Tesla was my go to but sounds like a great alternative

[@Transforming2024]

Love this video.

[@SubStationSparky]

In my state Connecticut. We have what is called NET METERING. That means the electric meter measures the excess power from my system and feeds the grid, essentially spinning my meter backwards...APRIL 1st is the date the clock resets every year. So I build up a bank of KWHs throughout the spring, summer and fall using the excess KWHs at night, cloudy days and winter months where the sun is less effective... So batteries are unnecessary in my mind right now. I have a huge whole home generator for prolonged outages which only happen once every 10 years or so..

[@user-qi8qm1pd2f]

When will it come to Asia I wanna install them

[@mobolajiakinola3]

I watched Zack’s video, then watched yours, just because I can 😊

[@ItsJaden1]

This is cool

[@TPG1977]

Was gonna do solar and then was quoted $40,000 that includes interest paid on the loan. Instead I took $50,000 I had in cash and put in a high yield savings account that pays 4.5% and I now make $190 a month in interest that I use to pay my $190 a month electric bill. 😂 🎉

[@GetwitGhost]

How small is your home that you can get away with $190 electric bill lmfaooo?? Genuine question. Feel like if it’s just you and you don’t use your power often what you did makes the best sense. Would you agree??

[@TPG1977]

@@GetwitGhost not a big house 2600 sq feet and not including basement - about 40 minutes from Philadelphia - 4 people live in home - May 2024 $189.29 1125kwh 0.17 cents a kwh - but yup I have a small house and in just my one account I have 50,000 parked by not wasting it on solar making 190 a month.

Zambales is my home province and our main products are pastillas from carabao milk and mangoes.

Omg, I'm from Zambales and I study in Iba. The heat index here hit 53°C, so I'm currently researching solar options to power my AC unit.

[@rickysalapar1252]

See you in the philippines brother.

[@dragonfalcon8474]

Do you have to buy anything extra to have the battery and the grid working together at the same time? There may be at technical term for it, I'm a noob with this. I want to stay on grid but supplement it to 0% use if possible using a battery and solar system if possible. Looks like what you guys did. My highest month of grid use was ~1800kwh. I live in FL, I wonder if 1 of these battery pack systems would do with a good solar array and with good sun directly on panels for 60% of the day.

[@richkid8990]

I love it pretty decent

should have told anker to install in the Philippines that could support 20qty huts, much needed

[@xheksa]

looks really great, but when will by available in EUROPE??? :(

[@twosawyers]

They need to price these competitively.

[@truthraiderlearsi1473]

My question is do we have to go onto their website only to buy one of these and how easy is it to install?

[@Brooooo21]

Best video

[@macminia_anton]

I was also born and raised in the Philippines. It was awesome that you were also born here. Hopefully you will come and visit again

[@zeydallahoum]

When you got off-grid, why was solar not still charging the battery ?

[@jaycee320]

Ohhh represent zambales ❤✌🏻

[@satyakorrapati]

So you still need micro inverters installed on the solar system 😊

[@akshat._shaw._]

Is EP Cube brand good?

[@abuadam]

Does it have Ion lithium phosphate cells please?

[@24tcwarrior]

Can you look into Solid State Battery Storages?

[@Yielar1]

This would be a better option at the moment

[@billasweather7833]

Could you comment on why someone would choose this over eg Tesla power wall 3? I wish anker would just share the price on their site...

[@AnkerJuliette]

It's modular, and you can take this off-grid, which apparently is possible with the Tesla system, but trickier. To name a few things ...

[@danmccoy6164]

And you have to use tesla approved installer to also have a warranty.

[@mr.boniato6402]

How long do those batteries last? - is it the typical 8-10 years?

[@dropshoprecordings]

how does it work with 4 ton and 5 ton AC units... for us down here in houston tx

I've watched a lot of videos on solar power powering homes, and most of them are positive. They discuss how solar energy can save a lot of money and is useful in situations where the grid is down. All in all, the videos are positive, but not everyone takes advantage of them. I am aware that installing solar requires a lot of thought and consideration. However, we only pay once and have lifetime access to it??. Why don't individuals put money aside to buy solar power in order to save money? I've been considering that for a while.

[@mycinemax2653]

I want to be Dan's friend and get 2 batteries 😍

[@AirmanJH]

I noticed Anker won’t publicly publish pricing. Why is that? I’m not interested in giving all of my info to a company in order to compare them to competition. I think EG4 Powerpro with the 18k hybrid inverter appears to be the best value until Anker proves otherwise.
