SolarFlow 1600 AC+ already holds a battery inside the control unit's body, but it has no panel inputs of its own: it's installed downstream of an existing rooftop solar system, reading how much the home consumes and how much the system produces, and exchanges energy with the home grid through its cable with a Schuko plug. When the starting capacity isn't enough, up to five dedicated satellite packs stack under the control unit, attaching to its terminals.
It also has an emergency outlet for power during a blackout, but it stays off by default: it has to be turned on from the app before it can be used, and turned off again afterward. In basic mode it feeds up to 800 W back into the grid; a more aggressive mode reaches 1,400-1,600 W, but it needs a certified technician to activate it under local regulations.
It mounts on a wall with the included brackets. Below zero the battery heats itself to keep charging. The first setup goes through the Zendure app and a registered account. It's the choice for anyone who already has panels on the roof and wants to recover the energy that today goes to waste, with the battery already included and the option to grow it later.

Which documents this page rests on
The rest of the data comes from one page on the manufacturer's site, cited row by row in the table above.
A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.
What it really costs
How we worked it out
- price
- 725
- nominal capacity
- 1.920
- the manufacturer does not state the warranty: the limit could be shorter than the stated cycles
- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
How we worked it out
- stated cycles
- 6000
- the manufacturer does not state the warranty: the limit could be shorter than the stated cycles
- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
- on nominal capacity: the manufacturer does not state the usable figure, so the real cost is higher
- without conversion losses, which the manufacturer does not state: the real cost is higher

These numbers are calculated, not stated: they have no source to cite, they have a formula you can redo. The price used is the manufacturer's list price, which is stable and the same in every country — not a shop's price on the day.
Pros and cons
In favour
- The battery is already inside the control unit: no need to buy it separately just to start storing the roof's energy.
- It recovers energy from an existing rooftop solar system, with no need to install panels dedicated to this device. source
- With six packs in total, base plus five satellites, it reaches one of the highest capacities in its segment.
- It mounts on a wall with the included brackets, with no need to buy a separate mount.
Worth knowing
- On installation day the emergency outlet is off by default: it has to be remembered and turned on from the app before it's actually needed.
- Feeding back more than 800 W into the home needs a certified technician to activate the more aggressive mode under local regulations.
- Without an already installed rooftop solar system, there's nothing to charge it from the sun: its job is to recover existing energy, not to generate it. source
