Overview

  • APSystems is marketing the EZHI hybrid kit with Hailei storage via Talent International, pairing four 440 W panels with a 5 kWh battery expandable to a stated 40 kWh, priced around €1,520 for the set or €1,199 for the storage alone.
  • The EZHI system is described with a hybrid-parallel design that keeps the inverter operating if the battery fails, an off‑grid socket up to 1,200 W, and brand‑agnostic AC coupling for retrofits.
  • Current shopping guides highlight 1,000 W duo sets starting at about €300–€380 without storage and optional batteries under €1,000, including Kleines Kraftwerk’s Anker Solarbank 2 Pro bundle at €999 and Solakon’s Growatt NOAH 2 kWh option at €899.99.
  • Solakon announced presales for its new ONE modular LiFePO4 storage at 2.11 kWh per unit (stackable to six), IP65 rating and up to 1,200 W backup, with prices listed at €749 for the master and €599 per expansion; sign‑ups opened September 4 for sales from September 7.
  • A reader unboxing of Solakon ONE reported solid packaging and build quality with positive first impressions, while legal limits from Solarpaket 1 still frame adoption with 2,000 W system allowance and an 800 W feed‑in cap.
