Black Month Sparks Price War on Anker Solix 3 Balcony Solar Bundles

German retailers are trimming 1.8–2.0 kW plug-and-play kits with Anker’s Solarbank 3 to roughly €1,2k, banking on quick-payback claims that depend on optimal yields and household usage.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets list Anker Solix 3 Pro bundles with four panels around €1,199–€1,299, including Kleines Kraftwerk (1.8 kW at €1,199) and comparison roundups citing BALKONSTROM (€1,199), Solago (€1,249) and Powerness (€1,239 pickup/€1,299 delivery).
  • Key specs highlighted across listings include about 2.68–2.7 kWh base capacity, four MPPT inputs with up to 3,600 W PV input, IP65 housing, LiFePO4 cells rated to roughly 6,000 cycles and modular expansion to about 16 kWh.
  • Publishers report that 1.8–2.0 kW sets can reach up to roughly 1,800–2,000 kWh per year under ideal conditions, implying about €600–€630 in annual savings at €0.35/kWh and an estimated payback near two years at current promo prices.
  • Vendors market simple setup and app control with included smart meters, though articles note an electrician may be needed to install the meter and that inverter output is typically limited to 800 W unless approval allows 1,200 W.
  • Beyond 2 kW bundles, retailers are pushing larger packages with steeper nominal cuts, such as Solago’s 4 kW sets with Anker Solix 3 Pro around €1,749–€1,799 and a newly advertised Solakon 4,000 W kit with a 2.11 kWh ONE storage unit from €1,299 plus shipping.
