Victron Energy Gel Battery 12V/90Ah
See price and availability (2)
This Victron gel battery (90 Ah, 12 V) is sealed and maintenance-free, with a very long service life: an excellent storage core for your solar kit.
- Capacity: 90 Ah (C20), 80 Ah (C10)
- Voltage / Type: 12 V / Gel VRLA
- Service life: Up to 12 years
- Weight: 26 kg
- Sealed gel VRLA, maintenance-free, very durable
The battery is the heart of a solar kit: it stores the energy from the panels and releases it when needed. This Victron Energy battery uses gel (VRLA) technology, so it is 100% sealed and maintenance-free, with a very long service life even after deep discharges. At 90 Ah and 12 V, it offers one of the best compromises between capacity and size for most installations, with Victron's proven reliability.
We use this Victron gel battery on an off-grid installation, and it inspires confidence. No maintenance, no fumes: we even installed it in a poorly ventilated box without issue. After several deep-discharge cycles (nights without sun), it comes back without weakening and holds its voltage well. The 26 kg are felt when carrying it, and the price is not the lowest on the market, but here you pay for Victron's longevity and reliability. As the core of a solar kit built to last, it is a reassuring investment.
Zendure SolarFlow 2400 AC
1199.00€ (6)
AC-coupled storage that changes scale: 2400 watts both ways, 2880 watt-hours expandable beyond seventeen kilowatt-hours, and a backup socket when the grid drops.
- Power: 2400 W charging as well as discharging
- Storage: 2880 Wh LiFePO4, expandable to 17.28 kWh
- Backup: 800 W off-grid outlet
- Durability: IP65, -20 to +60 °C, 10.12 kg
- 2400 W bidirectional and 6000 cycles
The SolarFlow 2400 AC is not a microinverter but an AC-coupled home battery: it sits between the meter and the home, absorbs up to 2400 watts to charge and gives back as much when electricity is expensive. The base configuration pairs the unit with an AB3000X battery of 2880 watt-hours in lithium iron phosphate, expandable to 17.28 kWh with six modules. An 800 watt off-grid outlet takes over during a power cut, and the AI-driven HEMS manager arbitrates according to hourly tariffs.
The SolarFlow 2400 AC marks a change of nature in Zendure's range, and that is worth understanding before buying. The SolarFlow 800 and its derivatives are microinverters: you plug solar panels into them. This one has no photovoltaic input, it is AC-coupled. In other words it sits between your installation and the home, and stores electricity indifferently from your existing panels or from the grid when it is cheap. That is home-battery logic, not balcony-kit logic, and it opens a use case microinverters do not cover: pure tariff arbitrage, profitable without a single panel. The figures follow that ambition. The 2400 watt rating in both directions absorbs a production peak or covers a household's real evening consumption, where the regulatory 800 watts of a balcony kit only erase the standby baseline. The 2880 watt-hours of the supplied AB3000X battery represent a full evening for an average household, and stacking to 17.28 kWh puts the system on a par with conventional residential storage. The quoted 6000 cycles on LiFePO4 cells sit within today's serious standards. Three points deserve attention before ordering. The backup outlet is limited to 800 watts: it saves the fridge, the router and the lighting during a cut, not the hob. The IP65 rating lapses as soon as that off-grid socket is used or the cover is not properly closed, which Zendure states honestly. Finally, at 1199 euros in its entry configuration, the unit addresses buyers who have already worked out their off-peak to peak price gap: that is where its payback lies, more than in solar self-consumption.
EcoFlow Stream Ultra X
£1499.00 £1249.00
(13)
3.84 kWh of LiFePO4, a built-in hybrid inverter and up to 2300 W: the EcoFlow Stream Ultra X is the flagship of balcony solar storage.
- Capacity: 3.84 kWh (LiFePO4)
- Output: 2300 W (2 AC outlets) + 800 W grid
- Solar: 4 MPPT, up to 2000 W
- All weather: IP65, self-heating to -20 C
- Battery + built-in inverter, microinverter included
The EcoFlow Stream Ultra X is an all-in-one balcony solar storage system built to maximise self-consumption. It combines a 3.84 kWh LiFePO4 battery, a built-in hybrid inverter and four MPPT solar inputs (up to 2000 W of panels). It stores energy generated during the day to release it in the evening: up to 800 W fed back into the home grid, and up to 2300 W through its two AC outlets. IP65 rated with self-heating down to -20 degrees C, it installs outdoors and is controlled by app. The microinverter is included.
The Stream Ultra X is the most accomplished balcony storage system to date. Where most systems settle for a battery module wired to a hub, EcoFlow packs everything into one box: 3.84 kWh of LiFePO4 cells, a hybrid inverter, four MPPT controllers and even two AC outlets. In practice, you plug in your panels (up to 2000 W), store the day's surplus and release it in the evening, either fed back into the grid (800 W, within balcony limits) or straight to its outlets at up to 2300 W during an outage. The IP65 housing and self-heating down to -20 degrees C allow year-round outdoor installation, and the app control is thorough. Two reservations: at 39 kg, plan a solid mount and a two-person install, and its price places it firmly at the premium end of balcony solar. But for anyone who wants to maximise self-consumption without stacking boxes, it is a very convincing proposition.
Power Queen 100Ah LiFePO4 battery
See price and availability (10)
1280Wh of reliable, light lithium: the 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 battery that replaces lead, lasts thousands of cycles and unlocks the runtime of a motorhome, boat or solar kit.
- Capacity: 12V 100Ah (1280 Wh, LiFePO4)
- Cycles: 4000 to 15000 cycles
- Protection: 100A BMS, low temperature
- Dimensions: 329 x 172 x 214 mm
- 1280Wh LiFePO4, 100A BMS, long life
The Power Queen 12V 100Ah is a lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery of 1280 Wh built for off-grid independence. Far lighter and more durable than a lead-acid or gel battery, it offers 4000 to 15000 cycles depending on depth of discharge and can be discharged to 100% without damage. Its built-in 100A BMS protects against overcharge, deep discharge, short circuit and overcurrent, with a low-temperature protection that cuts charging in the cold. Perfect for the motorhome, caravan, boat, electric outboard or an off-grid solar system.
The Power Queen 100Ah holds up very well against pricier batteries. Fitted in a motorhome in place of an old lead-acid battery, the difference in runtime is obvious: you actually use nearly all of the 1280 Wh, whereas lead does not tolerate deep discharges. The weight saving is welcome, and the built-in BMS is reassuring day to day against overcharge and short circuits. The low-temperature protection is a real plus to avoid damaging the cells in winter. We use it both to power a fridge, lighting and a pump in a van, and to store the output of a small solar kit. Two honest caveats: the 100A BMS limits discharge current, which is enough for most uses but may restrict a very powerful inverter, and like any LiFePO4, charging below 0°C is not advised (hence the protection). To replace lead with reliable lithium without breaking the bank, it is excellent value.

Anker Solix Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro
1799.99€ 1049.00€
(7)
2688Wh of plug-and-play solar storage: 4 MPPT, a bidirectional 1200W microinverter and an AI that optimises your self-consumption on its own. Balcony solar finally pays off.
- Capacity: 2688 Wh (LiFePO4, expandable 16 kWh)
- Solar: 4 MPPT, up to 3600W PV input
- Inverter: Bidirectional 1200W, plug&play
- Intelligence: Anker Intelligence (AI), meter
- 2688Wh, 4 MPPT, optimising AI
The Anker Solix Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro is a balcony solar storage battery, plug-and-play, that makes home solar genuinely worthwhile. Its 2688 Wh (2.7 kWh) of LiFePO4 store your panels' energy to release it in the evening or at peak hours, instead of losing it. It packs 4 MPPT controllers (up to 3600 W solar input), a bidirectional 1200 W microinverter, and above all Anker Intelligence, an AI that manages the flows on its own to maximise your savings. Its capacity expands to 16 kWh, and a smart meter avoids any waste.
The Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro reconciled us with balcony solar: without it, the energy produced during the day is fed to the grid and lost if no one consumes it; here, you store it to bring it back in the evening, when the home actually needs it. Installation is simple, genuinely plug-and-play, you connect the panels and the microinverter, and the app does the rest. The 4 MPPT let you connect several panels facing different directions with no loss, a real plus on a balcony or facade. What impressed us most is the Anker Intelligence AI: it learns our habits and decides on its own when to store, when to release and how much to feed in, without us having to think about it, which genuinely optimises the savings. The 2688 Wh capacity covers a good part of the evening consumption, and the expansion to 16 kWh lets you go bigger. Two honest caveats: the price remains an investment, to be paid back over several years, and the payback depends on your consumption profile and sunlight. But to make a balcony solar kit finally smart and worthwhile, it is a success.
Zendure AB3000X
1199.00€ 719.00€
(6)
The 2880 Wh LiFePO4 storage module that unlocks the SolarFlow 2400 AC: expandable to 17.28 kWh, rated for 6000 cycles and backed by a 10-year warranty.
- Capacity: 2880 Wh (LiFePO4, 48 V)
- Expandable: Up to 17.28 kWh (6 modules)
- Lifespan: 6000 cycles, 10-year warranty
- Cold weather: Self-heating, works down to -20 °C
- Large 2880 Wh stackable module for SolarFlow 2400 AC
The Zendure AB3000X is a 2880 Wh LiFePO4 storage module built for the SolarFlow 2400 AC balcony system. A single unit already covers an evening, and it stacks up to six modules for 17.28 kWh. Long-life cells (6000 cycles, around 15 years of use), self-heating that keeps it charging down to -20 °C and a 10-year warranty make it a solid base for storing your solar energy all year round.
The AB3000X is the storage brick that makes the SolarFlow 2400 AC truly worthwhile: with 2880 Wh in a single module, you already cover a good part of an evening without drawing from the grid. What we like is the stacking logic: you start with one battery, then add more over time, up to six, with nothing to reconfigure. The LiFePO4 cells rated for 6000 cycles inspire confidence over the long run, and the internal heating, which keeps the battery active down to -20 °C, is a real plus for a year-round outdoor install. The build is hefty and reassuring, but that is also the trade-off: at over 26 kg, the module is not made to be moved often, so plan its permanent spot from the start. Another point to keep in mind: the AB3000X is designed for the SolarFlow 2400 AC ecosystem and is not a universal block. But within that setup, it is an efficient, durable extension, covered by a 10-year warranty, for anyone who really wants to maximise self-consumption.
Zendure AB2000L
719.00€ 599.00€
(6)

Long-life cells (6000 cycles), an IP65 enclosure and a 10-year warranty make it a reliable, affordable extension for storing your solar energy.
The AB2000L is the new generation of extension battery for SolarFlow hubs (Hub 2000, Hyper 2000): with 1920 Wh per module, it already covers a good part of an evening, at a noticeably gentler price than the previous generation. It keeps the safety pitch that reassures on this kind of permanently installed product: an aerosol fire suppression system that can smother a fire without toxic gas, anti-thermal-runaway protection and an IP65 enclosure for the outdoors. The self-heating, which keeps it charging down to -20 C, makes it a genuine outdoor battery, usable year-round. Stacking remains the ecosystem's great strength: you start with one battery, then add up to four (7.68 kWh). The LiFePO4 cells rated for 6000 cycles and the 10-year warranty reassure over the long run. The only real downside is its weight, which makes it worth choosing its spot carefully at install time. To extend an existing SolarFlow system without breaking the bank, it is now the most logical choice.
Zendure AB1000
900.00€ 499.00€
(5)
The 960 Wh LiFePO4 storage module of the SolarFlow ecosystem: compact (11.5 kg), expandable to 3.84 kWh, self-heating -20 C, IP65 and a 10-year warranty.

- Compact 960 Wh battery, the most affordable
The Zendure AB1000 is a 960 Wh LiFePO4 storage module for SolarFlow balcony solar systems (Hub 2000, Hyper 2000). Compact (11.5 kg) and compatible with the other AB batteries, it stacks up to four units for 3.84 kWh. Self-heating keeps it charging down to -20 C and the IP65 enclosure allows outdoor installation. With its 10-year warranty, it is the ideal entry-level extension to get into solar storage on a budget.
The AB1000 is the gateway to storage in the SolarFlow ecosystem: at 960 Wh and 11.5 kg, it is the lightest and most affordable of Zendure's extension batteries, ideal for a first step or a small balcony. It carries the essentials: an IP65 enclosure for the outdoors, self-heating that keeps it charging down to -20 C, and the range's stacking logic (up to four units, or 3.84 kWh, and compatible with the other AB batteries to size your capacity). The 10-year warranty covers the whole thing. Two things to keep in mind: its capacity stays modest, so for genuine evening autonomy you are better off with the AB2000L or stacking several modules; and, unlike the newer versions, it does not have the aerosol fire suppression system reserved for the higher-end models. But to start out without investing too much and discover balcony storage, the AB1000 remains an excellent entry point.
Zendure AiO 2400
1799.00€ 1199.00€
(2)
The all-in-one solar storage that combines a hub and a 2400 Wh battery in a sleek metal case: 2 MPPT, self-heating to -20 C, IP65 and easy install.

With two MPPT controllers (up to 1560 W of panels, 1200 W for charging), it connects to a microinverter to feed the stored energy in. Its slim metal design, self-heating down to -20 C and IP65 rating make it a polished, easy-to-install way to store your solar energy all year round.
The AiO 2400 takes the opposite approach to modular SolarFlow systems: instead of stacking a hub and batteries, everything sits in a single metal case, slim and genuinely elegant, one of the best-looking in the category. In use, its simplicity is what wins you over: you connect the panels to its two MPPT inputs, link a microinverter (often the bundled EZ1-M), and the built-in 2400 Wh battery does the rest, storing daytime energy to release it in the evening. The self-heating that keeps it charging down to -20 C and the IP65 rating make it a true outdoor product, usable year-round. The LiFePO4 cells last up to 4000 cycles at 80% (8000 at 70%), a sign of longevity, and the 10-year warranty reassures. Two caveats: its capacity is fixed (2400 Wh), so you need to size it right at purchase, with no stacking like on an AB system; and you have to add a microinverter for feed-in. But for a clean, good-looking, fuss-free balcony install, the AiO 2400 is one of the best options around.

A reliable, rugged choice for those who want a proven leisure battery without switching to lithium.
The Antarion 125Ah Gel is a safe bet for anyone who wants leisure runtime without complications. Fitted in a motorhome, it does exactly what you expect: it powers the lighting, fridge and pump for several self-sufficient days, and takes the daily discharge and recharge cycles without flinching. The big advantage of Gel is zero maintenance: no electrolyte level to watch, no gassing in normal use, and installation possible in various positions. It is also more tolerant than flooded lead of slightly deep discharges. Two honest caveats: like any Gel battery, it remains heavy and should not be discharged too low to preserve its lifespan, and recharging requires a Gel-suitable charger to avoid damaging it. For classic, reliable, no-surprise motorhome use, on a controlled budget against lithium, it is a reassuring choice.

The simple way to make solar self-consumption genuinely worthwhile, with no heavy work.
The BS2500 Pro reconciled us with balcony solar. The principle is clear: without storage, the energy produced during the day goes to the grid and is lost if no one consumes it; here, you keep it to release it in the evening, when the home actually needs it. Installation lives up to its plug & play promise, you connect the panels and the inverter, and the system handles the rest. The dual MPPT lets you connect several panels, even facing different directions, with no loss, a real plus on a balcony. The anti-backflow protection avoids sending unwanted current back to the grid, and the IP65 rating is reassuring for an outdoor install. Its 2600 Wh capacity covers a good part of the evening consumption. Two honest caveats: the price remains an investment to be paid back over several years, and the payback depends on your consumption profile and sunlight. But to make a balcony solar kit finally smart and worthwhile, the BS2500 Pro is a success.

LiFePO4 wins on a fixed installation: 3,000 to 4,000 cycles against 500 to 1,000, no thermal drift and a stable voltage down to 90 per cent discharge. NMC lithium-ion only keeps the edge on weight and bulk, which matters for genuinely portable use.
With a charger or controller set to the LiFePO4 profile, absorbing at 14.2 to 14.6 V for a 12 V bank, and without a prolonged float stage. A classic lead-acid charger will undercharge it or hold it at voltage needlessly. The built-in BMS protects against overcharge, but it does not replace a correct charge profile.
Yes in most installations, on three conditions: adapt the charger profile, check that the alternator or controller copes with the higher inrush current, and check the dimensions, since LiFePO4 is more compact. The gain is clear: 100 Ah of LiFePO4 gives as much usable energy as 200 Ah of lead, at half the weight.
A 400 watt panel produces 1.4 to 1.8 kWh on a good summer day. To store that output without clipping it you need at least 150 Ah at 12 V (1.9 kWh). Below 100 Ah the battery saturates by midday and the energy is lost. Rule of thumb: 25 to 40 Ah of 12 V storage per 100 watts of panel.
It discharges happily down to -20 degrees, but it must not be charged below 0 degrees: that causes metallic lithium plating which destroys the cells irreversibly. Models aimed at vans and boats therefore include internal heating or a cold charge cut-off managed by the BMS.
A LiFePO4 accepts 80 to 90 per cent discharge without harm, against 50 per cent at most for a lead-acid battery if you want to preserve its life. That is why you should always compare genuinely usable energy, not the raw capacity printed on the label.
