For what use and for whom are these terrible background noises?
If there's not Microinverter inside the batteries, when a battery broken, it will not have any effect to others which in parallel. So I still do not know what's the necessary to equip a microinverter inside it.
love how he says "communication is hardwired through canbus" but the text says "it's hardwired through canvas"
Is there a way to have 60 panels with IQ8A and 5P batteries all part of the whole house system and not be a split system?
and Enphase is cheaper than Solar edge so it’s a no brainer. NOT!
So we are still wasting on DC to AC and back to DC.
Okay that’s not completely accurate about using your ev. Your Ev has to allow for bidirectional charging in order for that to happen. Currently Tesla does not allow for that except in the Cybertruck and who can afford one of those ?
Hey ! Can you amigos come up to Melbourne and install two 5p batteries for me ? I already have Enphase panels.
How long does it take for each battery to charge? Whole house using solar
Saludos, estoy en PR y estoy instalando IQ8H, combiner 5C, controller 3G y 4 baterías 5P. Se puede conectar un generador que no está en el listado de Enphase al controller 3G?
How is there 5 batteries connected ? The IQ system controller only allows up to 4 for a max 80A's
They take up a lot of room and 1/2 of each box is full of Microinverters!
What copper wire size should I use from the IQ Controller 3G to 4 5P batteries? Currently thinking about mounting the batteries around 50 ft away from the controller.
Great review thanks. Question, how many IQ8H can be connected to each 20A breaker in the Combiner 5? I'm installing a 60 panels system with IQ8H.
Another subsidy for the rich who benefit from the 30% tax credit.
It looks ugly.
This is a very good explanation of the Enphase system - much better then they do on their own website.
How about the price.? How much.?
Lol, clueless dudes
Really well spoken gentlemen. Thanks for the video.
Too expensive, no matter what
So that I can learn how much battery I would need to service a house
I service Dallas I want sell battery is there any case study projects like a demonstration center to learn battery sales
Yes, Enphase University - university.enphase.com
Getting solar panels and battery backup was one of the best decisions I made for my home.
How much these five units cost? I'm trying to compare them to the EP Cube where I can combine two inverters with 5 batteries per inverter (total of 15 KW , 33 KWH) for under $20K
Personally, I'm shooting for 55kwh with Eg4 powerwall is a much better product with 10 years warranty. My goal is to be 90% - 95% off grid. Tesla,Enphase,Franklin,Ep Cube.... do not provide a good ROI Please shop around and do not get fooled by this type of video. Enphase: 5kwh = 5 modules = $3,200 X 5 = $16k Eg4: 14.3kwh = 2 modules = $3,400 X 2 = $6,800 Goodluck😎
@@passerau The only difference is that Enphase batteries have built in Inverter. The EG4 batteries need to be paired with an inverter which is another $5,000. I think the EG4 will still come out cheaper but not the numbers you were showing.
@@AlexanderBell1847 hummm!!!! I don't think so The Enphase IQ5P is strictly an energy storage device, you will still need a microinverter on each panel. Enphase doesn't use string inverter, they use microinverters $250/unit Another $2500 (10 microinverters) on top of the $16k = $18,5k Eg4 string inverter: EG4 6000 XP = $1,500 10 solar optimizers to boost effeciency $50 X 10 = $500 Based on the setup in this video if you want to replicate that, this will be the starting price between Enphase and Eg4: Enphase: 25kwh = 5 modules = $3,200 X 5 = $16k + $2500 = $18,5k Eg4: 28.6kwh = 2 modules = $3,400 X 2 = $6,800 + $500 + $1,500 = $8,800$ Goodluck😎
@@passerau Please double check on this. I researched Enphase batteries and found they come with built-in multi-inverters (actually this is an advantage for Enphase batteries since if one inverter fails, they have others running in parallel).
I’m beginning to think Enphase will be the Solar component companion company that I will go with. They are killing it!
As someone who lives in a colder climate, the only concern I would have is that LFP batteries don't perform as well in the cold. But they allow for way more charge/discharge cycles without any battery degradation.
Buen video. Sería bueno una versión en español.
Como instalar un generador generac de 10kwa al sistema enphase como segundo backup l.
Great promotion video. Enphase is a great system, however there are also drawbacks, every vendor has its pro and contra. For Enphase the negative points are: - Cloud only - the owner has no monitoring tools without an active Internet connection - Local access for managing systems, e.g:. Home Assistant, require a token authentication which expires after 12 month, if Enphase cloud solutions are not available to renew the token, there is no local home automation possible anymore. - Installers cannot handle all support cases on their own, often they must call Enphase directly for help to investigate into problems, e.g. with Batteries, with Envoy. I have seen many cases where the installer cannot re-activate the system. - Problems with disconnected batteries which die going low discharge, the DC switch must be turned off in this case to avoid battery damages. (at least for 3T and 10T batteries) I hope that some problems may be accessed via software updates. Anyways at the end of the day it is a very fine system. PS: Some pro Enphase points - no single point of failure for the inverters (the system continues always with the remaining inverters if one fail). - If one batterie fails/disconnects, the other batteries continue to work - Micro-inverter benefits that the Solar module has no high voltage (500-1000V like String inverter) at the panel, non isolated from ground. With the micro inverter the panel has about 40V only, and is isolated. Warm regards from Germany.
Perfect! Enphase is Quality Solar System 😊
Enphase’s ac topology is relatively safer but limiting in my view. Having access to dc power allows for considerably more efficient energy management technology to be developed - such as dc coupled batteries. Roof top safety can be achieved via optimisers as well - safe dc and arc prevention
The best
How quickly the battery kicks in ? Thanks
Why does it matter what an installer prefers? It's up to the homeowner and what they want on their property for the next 25 years or so.
True but Installers have to stand behing their product. If you are choosing a good installer, they will be servicing the system if and when needed so they are incentivized to recommend equipment that they are confident will not malfunction.
@@samuelpierog1302 but installers only service what they know. I'm calling for broader knowledge. RE+ shows great products every year especially this year. But installers still only know and preach Enphase. Time to offer customers newer products from different manufacturers and let the customer decide what they want.
Because reliable installers will typically only install the most reliable parts and systems. So when pairing batteries with solar energy the input from the company you expect to maintain the system it should matter what they think. Doesn’t mean it’s the only thing that matters but it’s something to keep in mind.
@@samuelpierog1302 most will change names or disappear
If customer wants a inferior product by all means its your money and I guarantee they will take it.
Wow each cell has an inverter, Talk about complicated if it goes wrong, how much do i fork out the when do i get my money back come back in ten years and we will see if they are still working. simple is most reliable.
can they be installed on top of each other vertically?
I am curious as to what you did for the Backup loads Panel, with 5 x 5P that is Whole home Backup+, Did you Move all Branch Breakers from the MSP to a Sub Panel aka Backup Panel and the MSP becomes the Backfeed Panel?? You guys are in Florida and I know the Utilities allow for Line Side Tap. In California were I located we can only Interconnect with Load Side Tap or Hawaiian Tie In...
How many batteries can be connected to IQ Controller 3?
I think 16
CURRENT BATTERIES are a rip off. The average home will need $25,000 - $40,000 worth of batteries and they only last about 10 years before you have to replace them. You will never get your investment back. No matter what they tell you under the new NEM 3.0. Based on the video and the # of solar panels and batteries. This system cost around $75,000. You notice they never mention the price.
you gotta run the calculations for yourself, don't just assume with salesmen. that battery price does sound high. General solar panels ~should allow for a profit, albeit it may take 10yrs or so to get back the initial cost. If batteries are that expensive, then yeah you prob would lose money
What you just said makes no sense whatsoever. Batteries don’t last for only 10 years, they just degrade to about 70-80% of their original capacity after 10 years (that’s in the warranty). Also, why would you buy all of those at once? Just buy what you need to maximize self consumption under NEM 3.0. Then add to the system later on (they’re expandable) as prices decrease in coming years. A 5 kWh x 5 batteries is 25 kWh of storage, that’s about $15k-$25k. That’s before the 30% tax credit. Also, people aren’t typically adding batteries for savings, they’re doing it for peace of mind, and to offset selling to the grid at a severely discounted rate under NEM 3.0.
@@LifeLongLearner-om8jx well I would say we can "hope" the batteries last that long, but we all know laptop and cell phone batteries die very easily, are solar batteries somehow different? Can any long time 10+ yr owners of solar verify?
@@timothyn4699 there’s literally a warranty from the manufacturer that says it will last that long or they will replace it with a new one for free. Lithium Iron Phosphate like the kind used increasingly for home storage applications has cycle life’s that exceed 8,000 cycles which is more than 25 years before degrading to about 70%. These are not the same chemistries as laptop or phone batteries that are lithium ion and purposefully designed to go bad after 2-3 years.
@@LifeLongLearner-om8jx ah, I've been hearing about the LiFePo4 or whatnot batteries, I think they have 3000+ cycles. I guess just be wary as some say of brand new solar companies without a reputation, a 5year warranty or etc doesn't mean much if they go out of business. If they are around and they guarantee it that long, that would be great
Great content! Did I hear correctly that now these batteries can be installed on the other side of the house due to it being hard wired? And what about voltage drop if that is the case?
The combined output power capacity of 5, 5P batteries is just shy of 20kWatt of continuous, sustained output. This is 2.5 times the peak sustained power draw of my SoCal home in the summer. In contrast, the 25 kWatt-hours of total capacity for all 5 can supply less than half of my daily summer solar generation and less than half of my peak daily demand this past summer. Once your 5P battery configuration exceeds your peak sustained demand, buying more batteries means you are buying battery micro-inverters you don’t need. What you need is more stored energy to cover your needs, not more sustained micro-inverter k-Watt capacity. What we need is a modular battery that supplements storage that doesn’t force us to buy unneeded micro-inverters or 5P batteries that can be configured with 2, 4 or 6 micro-inverters.
Interesting point.
I have 33KW of the previous system. It is rock solid. With that said, this version has a lot of advantages. Especially the ability to go up to 80KW. During peak hours, I'm running 3 air conditioners and you can blow through 33KW of storage in less than 4 hours.
There needs to be a way to form a grid without the $3000 system controller 2.
I had an Enphase system, 11 395 Panels with IQ-8 MicroInverters installed in May 2023. That system also included a System II Controller but it has not yet been installed. I am looking to add batteries. I installed a soft start kit on my 3.5-ton AC, that took the full amp load from 114 amps to 29 amps. My goal is to eventually go off-grid. However, I do not see how I can power my whole house in either a grid-down or off-grid scenario as I have been told I can only have 4 120-volt circuits in my subpanel with the System II Controller. My question is, is it possible with enough solar panels and battery backup to power my whole house? I realize I also need a generator to cover when the sun does not shine. Ideally, I would like the generator to only charge the batteries, not run the house. Is this possible? Thank you
I’d look at the Franklin WH battery. It’s AC coupled and can power your whole house especially with 2 batteries.
You can do full backup. The 4 are things to shed
Great video. Nice and clear. The software that supports the batteries is somewhat buggy. The system, irrespective of the profile still draws power from the grid, we aren’t talking one or two watts, but 1-2kwh a day.
If I put a Soft Start device on my 3-ton AC system can 2 5P's power a home over night during a power outage, assuming I'm conserving as much as possible else where in the home?
Would depend on the time of year and how much you are discharging in the evening prior to sundown. In California, we start discharging batteries after 4 pm to offset peak pricing. ... Hope this helps... you can always add 1 more later. :)
Thank You Everybody for All that you are doing for our Planet Earth.. Peace Shalom Salam Namaste 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ ☮ ❤ 🕊
Do these batteries work with any solar installation or only ones that use enphase microinverters ? I have SunPower panels, trying to see if this works with those or not.
Sunpowers panels literally use Enphase's microinverters.
Enphase makes their batteries? Hmm
It’s an Enphase product. Does Apple make it’s batteries? No.
Enphase has developed everything around the batteries: - BMS battery controller made by Enphase - Battery main board and PLC made by Enphase - IQ-Gateway (Envoy) main controller made by Enphase - Housing, cooling made by Enphase only the battery itself are made by CATL See the video Enphase Battery Inside on youtube.
