Technical comparison · All-in-one
Two single-phase home batteries with nearly the same continuous output, 3.4 and 3.7 kW. One thing separates them: Zendure SolarFlow 4000 Mix Pro keeps the house running when the grid drops, sonnenBatterie 10 does not. Figures are manufacturer-declared.

The differences that matter
- Backup power: none → UPS, 10 ms: with the sonnenBatterie an outage shuts the house down; with the Zendure connected loads stay on.
- IP30, -5 to 45 °C → IP65, -20 to 55 °C: the first needs a dry indoor room, the second can sit in a cold garage or outbuilding.
- Expandable up to 20 kWh (sonnenBatterie): you start at 5 kWh and add modules later.
Which one to choose
Choose sonnenBatterie 10 if…
you want 5 kWh usable in a dry indoor room, with room to grow to 20 kWh by adding modules, and a unit that talks to the EV charger. The trade-off: no backup power, so a grid outage means the house goes dark, and IP30 rules out a wet or outdoor spot.
Choose Zendure SolarFlow 4000 Mix Pro if…
the battery lives in a garage or an unheated space (-20 to 55 °C, IP65) and connected loads must stay on through an outage, with a declared 10 ms switchover. It delivers 3,680 W continuous and charges at up to 4 kW. The trade-off: the declared grid connection power is 3 kW, below that continuous output.
