Not read the specs at this point but the temperature range is pretty standard stuff... for discharging. Always read the fine print. A battery that can't be charged below 0c and is mounted outside isn't a lot of chop in cold countries unless it has self-heating capabilities.

Hard to keep track of which system you think is the best, you produce a new video every week stating this system is a game changer? But just until a new system comes out the following week, then a company invites you to Germany, so obviously this week this is the ultimate system !

Never quite understood why the established battery brands left the home storage market free for startupd to tqke over. Both Duracell and now Anker are in thr market i think it will pick up quickly dur to brand recognition. Good for them.

I think you are right. When I bought my Tesla or an iPhone etc, I never do an ROI. For the Tesla I did do a TCO and on the servicing side it’s great on depreciation it’s poor or as poor as most other cars. Would that stop me buying it? Of course not, I wanted it and didn’t care the cost

@@user-rc7dg3np9c no one does an ROI on a new kitchen or bathroom. Or even a new boiler. They just need one or decide they want a new one. Why should a battery system be any different?

Buying a houseand will complete in the next few weeks.... Can't wait to get some solar PV panels and some Anker batteries :D :D

Out of interest, for a 5kW inverter what size cable would you need back to fuse board? (assuming a 10m run, and 10kWh battery) Logic says nothing major (2.5mm2), but I guess efficiency matters a lot given number of charge cycles.... Im asking as Id love to know approx complexity of installation (there is already a 6mm2 cable spare in the ceiling void).

Very much enjoy watching a committed sparky. Can you tell me where ANKER is located or how to contact ANKER about supply? The local AUS just seems to want to sell me phone chargers and similar. I seem to remember something about 3 phase with this unit, is that correct?

Sorry if my ideas are stupid , but the benefits of me being stupid = makes others look good , do you think in the future they would have a solar panel that is linked to a heater such as the floor radiators like they use in a ATA heat pump type so you would have a solar panel for disguised as blinds or shutters which in turn would have a small amount of batteries built into the radiator that would be enough to give out warm or cool air , depending on the time of year , depending on the size of the window and size of the room will dictate the size of battery needed with the radiator. I have three south facing windows plus a front door to the hallway plus a back door both doors south facing, I know the angle on the roof would be better but to capture the sun just enough to give energy for small air radiators you would not need 100% perfect situation, or am I just a thought away from total madness ?

Sure it looks nice, must be high voltage batteries with that footprint. I do wonder if we are compromising safety with these batteries, but have to admit they work better and seem to be quite on the inverter side

Why does the display show solar generation as kWh?

If you only have a single phase electricity supply and put these in could you then run three phase machinery directly off these batteries?

@protectiongeek

Assuming you intend to only charge the batteries from your grid supply, it really depends whether the system would charge with only one phase live (from its point of view). If the other two phases appear to be 'missing' my guess is it would probably not interconnect as it would see only one phase live as a fault. If the chosen device (and your installation) was suitable for operation in island mode (aka "off-grid"), then I would say that you could run 3-ph equipment from the battery source BUT it depends what _kind_ of 3-ph equipment you intend to operate. Some loads presenting things like starting currents for rotating machines can be rejected by inverters as they are incapable of delivering the necessary fault level unless they are significantly over-spec.

Offer me a personal view of yours from the admittedly little you will have been to glean given release periods , would you choose tesla3 or the sigenergy whole house you did in last but one . I aiming for whole of house uninterrupted.

Had a quick look at the manufacturer's specs on line - all US spec at the moment, which is strange given they were showcasing the device in a European city. Anyway, double-checked the ENA Connect Direct Live Device Register and to date (4th July 2024) it has no certification for use in the UK, yet. Oh, and the manufacturer claims a "switch time" of 20mS - that'll be the time for the switchgear to decouple from the DNO supply and go into island mode **once a loss-of-mains has been detected**, so a wee bit misleading. They're not the first to try this nonsense tbh.

Is Anker ahead of Tesla home installs

Probably to expencive. In a year we will reach 900 pound pr kw to end consumer. This product is fare from that I guess....So it's good looking and not noise 😂 but people don't buy a battery for it's look and I have never heard about noise batterys..

By all accounts this battery looks to be around £650 per kWh which is pretty standard. My 15 kw battery is £360 per kWh so we're already well under £900 per kWh to the end consumer (not including installation).

Yet again no costings. It's not worth the investment when installed.

So, get the product into Ukraine to help with their energy infrastructure crisis.

Another unproven product with no track record. Warrantys are worthless when the company goes bust before your 5 year warranty. Weren't you hawking a couple other brands and one went belly up on you?
