Data from official source

Zendure SolarFlow 4000 Mix Pro is a storage unit that's added to a rooftop solar system, with two ways to receive its energy: in alternating current from the solar inverter already there, like its siblings in the same series, or directly in direct current from the panels, with its own dual MPPT tracker input built for new systems or for anyone redoing the system from scratch. It can return more energy to the home grid than a system within balcony solar limits does, and that share can be increased by having an electrician hardwire it, within what local regulations allow.

It recognizes a power outage on its own and switches to the battery to power the loads connected to its dedicated emergency outlet, both day and night; if the panels connected directly or through the existing inverter are still producing, they keep charging the battery even while the grid is down. What it powers in an emergency is what's plugged into its dedicated outlet, not the home's system.

It also charges and discharges based on the energy price, when the utility makes it known: it draws from the grid or from the sun during the cheapest hours and returns the stored energy when it costs more. It's heavy, and it moves by pushing it sideways on its wheels. It's built for anyone redoing or expanding a rooftop solar system who wants a single device that accepts both new panels and the inverter they already have; anyone looking for a small balcony storage unit with no rooftop solar system of their own needs a different device, built for that scope.

03 · Summary

Pros and cons

In favour

  • It accepts the panels' energy both directly in direct current and in alternating current from the existing solar inverter, without having to choose in advance. source
  • When power fails it switches to the battery on its own, powering the loads connected to its dedicated emergency outlet.
  • It charges from the grid or from the sun during the cheapest hours and returns the stored energy when it costs more.
  • It doesn't need a technical room: it withstands rain and splashes and stays outdoors, as long as it's sheltered from direct rain.

Worth knowing

  • It can't be moved or mounted alone: it takes an extra pair of hands. source
  • Above 3 kW fed into the grid it needs an electrician to hardwire it, and local regulations may not allow it.
  • Emergency power comes out of a single outlet: the home's circuits stay off.
