E3/DC S10 X vs Zendure SolarFlow 4000 Mix Pro
Technical comparison · All-in-one
They do not do the same job: the E3/DC is a three-phase store installed into a house's electrical system, the Zendure a single-phase unit for an apartment. What decides it is the supply you have: three-phase up to 12,000 W or single-phase up to 3,680 W.

The differences that matter
- Continuous output 12,000 W vs 3,680 W, grid charging 11 kW vs 4 kW → with the Zendure the heavier loads stay on the grid and a full charge takes longer.
- Three-phase vs single-phase → on the E3/DC the load is shared across three phases; on the Zendure it all sits on one.
- Backup EPS vs UPS → on the E3/DC a blackout means a brief interruption; the Zendure is declared as continuous.
- IP20 and 5–35 °C vs IP65 and −20–55 °C → the E3/DC needs an enclosed, temperate room; the Zendure tolerates an unheated spot.

Which one to choose
Choose E3/DC S10 X if…
your house is connected three-phase and you want storage that works across the whole installation rather than on one phase. You pay for it in space: it goes indoors and weighs 155 kg against the Zendure's 80, so plan on giving it a room.
Choose Zendure SolarFlow 4000 Mix Pro if…
you live in an apartment on a single-phase supply and have no utility room: it weighs 80 kg and does not take over a room. The trade-off is much lower power, all of it on one phase, and a battery that fills more slowly from the grid.
