In this video, I go over the Top 5 Best Solar Batteries in 2024. Picking the best battery to purchase for a solar install can be confusing, so in this video I broke down all you should know when picking a battery, and which one would be best for you and your home.

i realize DIY isnt for most people but over $1k per kwh is a crime in 2024
Agree it cost at least >20k just for solar panels now just to have a backup battery another >15K. This is a crime with the environment
I am shocked how much these battery systems are overpriced! DIY batteries are much more budget friendly but lack these "ecosystem" features
So which LFP battery are folks finding best value?
For my 2024 Solar Battery installation I went with a brand not listed, and way cheaper for given performance, 4x EG4-LifePower4 Lithium Battery racks at 4x 30.72kWh per rack totaling 122.88kWh with 25kw solar panels and two Sol-Ark 15k inverters. My installer had quoted Enphase and SolarEdge for similar total kWh systems and Sol-Ark/EG4 was way cheaper than any of the competition. Installation was a breeze, I now have my dream solar system and am glad I chose Sol-Ark/EG4. If you think any of the 5 competitor battery systems described here would have been a more cost effective choice, please, let me know your thoughts.
Yes, EG4 and a few others are way cheaper. Boggling that these aren't mentioned
I wish you had included the Anker Solarix X1
This is a very good channel with clearly presented info. It deserves much more subscribers.
Can you make a video that also includes your assessment of the Anker Solix X1 and the ecoflow delta pro ultra as alternatives?
Tesla PW3 should be the way to go, It's no-brainer and wins from every angle, particularly, from an energy output storage point of view.
Powerwall 3 is a great battery, but there can be arguments made for other batteries on a project to project basis depending upon the homeowners goals.
Jk 5 to 1 blinks,see blinks haahaThanks for info man.
I looked into the Franklin and was quoted 25K before they even looked at anything. Need a good installer in NY for enphase.
That is a high number if it is for one Franklin battery. If you would like a quote for an enphase system in NY, you can book a call with us at www.solarprosteam.com/ and we can send something over to you.
No EG4 batteries? $3200 for 15kw. Just wait till the sodium ion deliveries start CATL has ramped production and currently world wide about 65 battery manufacturing plants are being built. buckle up.
What about the Anker Solix and Ecoflow Delta? Any comments on these two?
This video was more so to rank wall-mounted AC/DC coupled batteries to be connected to a home solar system, as opposed to portable power stations such as those two you mentioned.
@@solarprosteam the Anker Solix X1 is a wall mounted system - I'd been leaning toward the Franklin until I saw this system. I would really appreciate your opinions once you have a chance to look at it.
I'd like to add sigenergy system which should also be already available
Where is the price in "criteria for ranking"?
Don’t understand why it would be more difficult to add a Tesla PW3 to my existing solar panels , and regarding price if the total price with installation is 9,5K it must be the clear Best Buy ? Your Tesla PW3 video is in contrast to this video?
35-45% of all residential systems are AC on the roof (use microinverters). This is a DC coupled battery, so it will need to be paired with string inverter systems to work as efficient as intended.
@@solarprosteam What if you are willing to eat that 3-5% loss. Would the cost saving be worth it ?
@@solarprosteam ok I didn’t consider micro inverters, in Sweden micro inverters are not so common maybe only 10% of the market. Thank you for clarifying from your point of view.
I’ve talked to two installers who say the Enphase micro inverters can be retrofitted and are selling installations as such. Are they not being 100% truthful?
Did you mean to say Enphase batteries are being sold retrofitted?
@@solarprosteam sorry no I meant enphase micros + Tesla power wall 3s. As of now, are those not compatible?
@@patsycards Gotcha. At the moment, Tesla Powerwall 3's are DC coupled and to be paired with the Tesla inverter, however in the summer there will be an AC coupled version that can be paired with Enphase Microinverters.
Powerwall 3 is able to be AC and DC coupled. And this has been known for some time now.
it was designed as a DC coupled battery.
