In this episode, we take a look at the EG4 wall mount indoor power pro battery. This is the smaller brother or the indoor brother of the original power pro battery and it's pretty much the same battery except it is indoor rated only.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The WallMount Indoor 14.3kWh batteries are ideal for low-voltage residential indoor energy storage applications. The batteries use lithium iron phosphate cells with the highest safety performance and an intelligent Battery Management System (BMS) that can monitor and record the voltage of each cell along with the current, voltage, and temperature of the module in real-time. The BMS also contains a passive balance function and an advanced battery control method, both of which improve the performance of the battery pack.
ON-BOARD LCD TOUCH SCREEN
Easy to see BMS monitoring, and selectable closed-loop communications with EG4, Schneider, Sol-Ark, Victron, Growatt, Megarevo, Luxpower, and Deye inverters.
DUAL ON-BOARD FIRE ARRESTORS
Offer fail-safe protection against thermal runaway.
INTEGRATED SELF-HEATING FEATURE
Internal heating keeps cells operating during cold temperatures.
INTEGRATED BUSBARS
The battery design comes manufactured with 600A internal busbars with multiple terminals (4 positive & 4 negative) eliminating the need for external busbars when paralleling batteries and/or multiple inverters.
INNOVATIVE EMERGENCY STOP FUNCTION
The optional ESS disconnect can shut down all batteries and inverters (if equipped with rapid shut down capability) with the press of a button.
THE PERFECT PARTNER TO EG4 INVERTERS
The optional conduit box mates up directly to the connection ports of EG4 inverters allowing a sleek and efficient installation. For other inverters or stand-alone battery installation, the conduit box plugs should be installed.

When Riuxu releases their UL certified 16kWh battery also with built in fire suppression like the EG4, for around $3K US, Signature Solar and all other vendors/brands using this 14.3kWh battery will have to drop their price significantly if they want to compete. And just the lat few weeks, Riuxu and a couple other brands dropped their no frills server rack batteries close to the $1000 US mark. Signature Solar will need to do something to compete there too, not just their current sale of $1149 US.
Competition like that is good for the consumer. Drives better product quality products and pricing for consumers.
You can build your own for 100.00 per kwh. I just prefer it, self serviceable, most cost effective and the biggest upside... you have such a complete understanding of your system and how to scale it
I'm in the process of setting this exact same setup up. 2x wall batteries and a 6000xp. It's been a pleasure to work with so far. Pairing it with 20x Aptos bifacial panels for a ground mount system. Whole process from ordering to shipment and delivery was smooth as silk with signature solar.
nice size array. best of luck on your setup
Have you found where to buy the needed degson connector to parallel your two batteries? I’m stuck trying to do that.
So everyone is talking about this magical “paralleling kit”. I now have two of these batteries that I can’t connect together because no one posts the actual part number needed, and signaturesolar doesn’t sell such paralleling kit (degson connector). Help!! 😅
it's probably because they haven't changed the name and documentation everywhere to match up, but it's the same "parallel kit" as the outdoor powerpro.

If you only need the connectors, you can get them and make your own cables:

I saw a wall mount battery on wheels i don't know what make i am sure you could add wheels to this one but check for balance
yeah but not sure you'd really want this heavy battery that mobile. how often would you move it after it's in place?
IF one has an inverter like the 6000XP or 18Kpv, after the sun goes down and this thing is charged up, would it having any issues powering an electric 220v oven for an hour or two in addition to other standard house items, such as lighting, television, fridge? Also, what about charging an EV that has a 70 kWh battery?
Buy 2 or 3 batteries
The amount of kilowatt-hours (kWh) needed to fully charge a Tesla depends on the model and the charging speed. For example, a Tesla Model 3 has a 50 kWh battery, so it takes 50 kWh to charge from 0% to 100%. The Tesla Model Y Long Range and Performance models have a 75 kWh battery, so it takes 75 kWh to charge from 0% to 100%. The Tesla Model S and X variants have a 100 kWh battery.
@@samfish6938 Two or three batteries eh.. you mean something like 3x of these 14.3 batteries? So 40 kWh?! I wonder if a single one of these batteries is sufficient for an average of 10 kWH/day of use in the home (includes use of 220 volt oven)? I feel like I could get away with just a single 5.12 LL-S style battery that would suffice to start (no EV charging of course), at least it would likely get my home through the evening, possibly?
Depends on your usage. In a grid down situation you probably won’t need to run everything, or say you shouldn’t run everything.
If you run critical loads like fridge, kitchen appliances, lights, and tv, you should be able to get through for a few hours and even over night depending on your usage.
So I would just say you have about (14.3 * .9) ~ 12.8 kWh worth of energy in the set up. Assuming you don’t have any panels connected.
Assume you’re going to use about 12 kW of that energy so depending on how much you need to use you should be able to get through the night. I think I saw a statistic not too long ago that said the average American household uses somewhere around 35 to 55 kWh a day. But a bulk of that number is running HVAC units. So if you move the biggest consumers, you should be able to be good for close to a day if not more.
And if for whatever reason, you already have a generator, you could always use it to charge the battery
Keep in mind you won't be charging the EV from 0% to 100% every day. and hopefully you can charge it during the day when the sun is out. But regardless. I suggest you check your current power bill and estimate your current daily usage and go from there.
Say for example when I look at my bill, I find peak usage is in January. I average about 22KWh a day in Jan. I would suggest aim for double your daily max. In my case 44KWh, which is about what 3 of these batteries equal.
There is possibly build 30kwh battery with eve cells for approximately 2200-2500$ exclusive bms, but good jk bms cost like 100-200. My conclusion is diy cheaper
I just built a 48V 16kWh battery (using the latest 314Ah EVE MB31 cells) with oversized disconnect breaker, class-T fuse, 150A JK inverter BMS w/2A active balancer for just under $2000 US ($125/kWh). This is with the lowest priced reputable EVE cells delivered from ventor QSO on Alibaba. QSO has never disappointed me. Just don't ever skimp on the overcurrent protections regardless of the additional cost. Yes, DIY is still significantly less expensive per kWh but the margins are shrinking little by little. And no certifications with DIY though...lol
And you wore your t-shirt inside out. Anyways Educative Video.
thanks

very interesting, do you want to add our battery to your system?
