3.6 kW Hybrid Solar System with 5 kWh Battery
A starter system for a home or small shop on a 230 V supply. It runs lights, fans, a TV, a fridge and phone charging, and keeps them on through a grid outage.
Standard kit, supplied complete from China: 6 × 580 W modules, 3.6 kW inverter, 5.12 kWh battery, cables and protection. Available as a Premium or a lower-cost Value version.
