    Do you have a guide on the plug and play instructions? Can I just plug into the closest power point?

    • +3

      I believe the plug&play is referring to stacking new battery module. You will still need to connect it to a compatible inverter.

    • Thank you…to be 100% sure please have a look at the official manual at:
      https://www.goodwe.com.au/Ftp/EN/Downloads/User%20Manual/GW_Lynx%20Home%20F%20Series%20G2(HV)_User%20Manual-EN.pdf

      Thanks, Richard

    • Click on the "see deal". The info is there e.g. LX F9.6-H-20, Lynx F G2 Series High Voltage Battery, 9.6kWh, LiFePO4 Technology, IP55, For ET|EH Series Inverters

      You need to have ET|EH Series Inverters to get it working.

      • +1

        Yes, if you have a Goodwe inverter this battery will only be compatible with the Goodwe ET|EH series inverters

        Thanks, Richard

        • I have got GW10KAU-DT
          Is it compatable?

  • Excuse my ignorance, but i assume this is some sort of battery that feeds off your solar? If so, how long would it last with normal night usage?

    • +3

      It depends how much energy you use in a "normal night usage"

      • +11

        50m2 of Plants and grow lights. Asking for a friend*

      • Last month, 157kwh was used (sorry dont have split day/night meter), so say that was my nightly usage?

        • 157kWh / 30 days = 5.233kWh

          Meaning if you managed to charge the batteries full during the day, that battery can pretty much last the whole night.

            @juns: Thats not bad, I dont think this would benefit someone like me, looking at the numbers it would take 16 years give or take to break even.

            • @BatmanAU: I use slightly less, but from my last bill tariff, I use about $75.92 worth of electricity in two months.

              My break even time is 12 years (not including installation cost!).

              But I'm going to wait until it's less than 10 years so it can achieve break even within warranty period.

              • @juns: Thats not bad, but i can see how it adds up. Great if you have big families, but costs of solar for the roof, then battery like this, small families/singles are better off just paying for electricity.

        • Any PV ? Size ?

    • he is right, need more info on this to plug our bat cave

      • +1

        Bat cave? Thats just to start the Batmobile :p

  • Hi OP

    1. What does the warranty cover?
    2. Is this rated for original 9.6kWh capacity at 10 years (i.e. is it overrated so at end-of-life it is still rated to original capacity?)? If not, what is the expected capacity at 10 years?
    3. How many cycles is this rated for and what is the definition of a 'cycle' (e.g. change from charge-to-discharge (partial charge and discharge) vs. full charge and discharge)? Sometimes batteries are rated for 10,000 cycles but if a cloud passes over and the battery starts discharging that's counted as a cycle - resulting in 100 cycles a day.
    4. How is temperature managed (HVAC?) and what happens on a 45°C day?

    Thanks

    • some info here - https://www.goodwe.com.au/Ftp/Downloads/Datasheet/AU/GW_Lynx%20Home%20F%20PLUS+%20Series%20(HV)_Datasheet-AU.pdf

      • Operating voltage > 500VDC is wild!
        Parallel configuration would be way better

      Hi Exprise,

      1. Please have a look at the official Goodwe Australia warranty:
        https://www.goodwe.com.au/Ftp/Downloads/Warranty/GOODWE%20Li…

      2. In the above warranty it states:
        10 years of performance warranty: GOODWE warrants that the battery system retains either seventy percent
        (70%) of Usable Energy for ten (10) years, or for a Minimum Through Output Energy which is calculated fromthe earlier one of installation date or 6 months after battery system production date, whichever comes first

      3. I tried to find info about how many cycles however could only find the following:
        https://www.energymatters.com.au/goodwe/lynx-f-g2-series-bat…

      4. For this one I could contact Goodwe for you and find out

      Thanks, Richard

      • Thanks a lot! This is detailed and exactly what I'm after.

        1. From the sheet you showed me that's perfect. It's about 2,500 full cycles (24,500/9.6). The output throughput answers this.

        2. Will be interesting to see how temperature is managed. Battery cell temperature should be ok up to 60 degrees though operation could easily bring it 15 degrees above ambient temperature on a hot day.

        My main concern here was if parasitic loads are involved as they can easily half the battery life depending on how HVAC is managed.

  • +3

    do you know how much for installation?

  • +2

    Probably more worth it to get a $12,100 tesla powerwall 2 at this stage… Goodwe is cheaper but the tesla pw2 is liquid cooled, 13.5 usable (Goodwe one is assuming 100%), includes install, backup power which is rather seamless, 10 year warranty is unlimited cycles if used domestically and guaranteed at 70% battery

    Most importantly, Tesla PW2 is AC which means it can be added to almost any inverter

    • +2

      Can get 19.2kw/hr battery for $1,000 less though if you go with the Goodwe

      • Tesla deal includes install, tesla gateway and backup which isolates from the grid to run on battery during blackout.

        Tesla counts 14kw but 13.5 usable. Goodwe counts 100% usable. Liquid cooling is essential for battery health if u live in hot places like WA.

        Most of these solar systems stop working once the grid is out… even if u have a battery unless it has backup function installed to cut from grid

        This would only make sense if u had the compatible goodwe inverter

        • Yeah, I thought this would only be the use case for these if you had the corresponding Goodwe inverter.

          I have the ET series inverter and backup function is possible when black out.

          Been waiting for a deal on these batteries but will still wait for a bit more as I think prices will come down further.

        • +2

          You’re wrong I guess. It’s 12100$ plus installation and delivery which possibly adds up to around 15k$.

          • @kevv: Oops had a read again, misread it as total cost. My installer quoted me 3 months ago 14k installed with gateway

    • Who does PW2 installed at $12100? Or is that after rebates etc?

      • Before rebates. Check the latest Tesla deal on ozbargain

  • +10

    With drop is lithium prices, most likely we are looking at huge price cuts for both electric cars as well as home storage.
    Home storage is already overpriced (roughly 2.5 to 3x) if you compare it with car batteries.
    PW3 coming soon, also alternative chemistries in play as well . So overall if you can wait, just wait for price to drop further.

  • Waiting is a better option, plus go with company which actually provides support, I have Goodwe inverter which I tried to add again on WIFI app, I have sent emails to goodwe support but haven't received any reply..

  • I have a Goodwe GW10K-MS Inverter. I can't for the life of me find details of what batteries are compatible with it & I'm also not very cluey regarding the topic but gaining knowledge (slowly) as I research it.

    I contacted the manufacturer & they said the system is ready to go with any ac coupled battery like - tesla, alpha etc . Or it can go with any battery by adding with a small hybrid inverter.

    Do you or anyone in the know have information of a 5-10kw battery I could use with my inverter?

    • +1

      Thanks….let me have a look, I will try to find out. Thanks, Richard

    • +2

      So I checked and according to Goodwe website the GW10K-MS can't take a battery:
      https://www.goodwe.com.au/ms-series-single-phase-residential…

      Not sure why Goodwe told you "system is ready to go with any ac coupled battery"

      Thanks, Richard

      • AFAIK, AC coupled battery storage doesn't have a PV inverter compatibility requirement as it goes on the grid/meter side and has it's own inverter for DC-AC convertion during night/blackout.

  • Thanks for sharing. Pretty good price for two for a 20kw battery system which should cover a day/night from solar.

    Do you think you might get some more agnostic brand batteries that work with different inverters?

    • +1

      Thank you, I will get you all brands from my solar distributors shortly, Richard

      • Oh that’s great. So good having some competition in this space!

        • +2

          Thank you, yes competition is good:)…So I/we can get:
          Alpha Ess, Dyness, Goodwe of course, Huawei, LG, SAJ, SolarEdge, Sungrow, AERL, BYD, GNB, PowerPlus Energy, Selectronic, Sonnenschein, XESS….take your pick and I can find good prices, Richard

          • +1

            @IT Shopping: Can I please get quotes on the sungrow and byd systems?

            They’re modular systems so should be fairly popular.

            What prices can you do?

                  • @IT Shopping: Wow. That’s pretty good! Do you have a link?

                    • @Ellllllys: Thanks, firstly, may I ask(did only about 3 post previously on OzBargain)…how do you prevent from double showing your @Ellllllys ?(as you can see in my replies to you)……and sorry, no link as I/we have so far only managed to add Goodwe batteries to our website….if you are seriously interested you would need to call me, sorry, bit old school….byd…also think worth another post……B-Box Premium HVS, with Battery Control Unit and HV Combiner Box $8514inc GST, free shipping, OzBargain price only….Thanks, Richard

                      • @IT Shopping: Great stuff mate. I’m excited for the deals you post!

                        • @Ellllllys: Thanks….again….price feedback is always great….very happy….if you have a look on the home page there is a Google fortnightly report(official report, not made up)….currently about 97% below benchmark prices in Oz

                    • @Ellllllys: And just so that there is no misunderstanding…if you are seriously interested in what I quoted you then I would add that product to our site and you CAN order it from there, Thanks

                  • @IT Shopping: Solid pricing! Warranty wise, through yourselves or Sungrow direct?

                    • @cycloneaussie: Thanks for the nice price feedback…always makes my day!!…with warranty, been doing this business for 20+ years, mainly IT products but was more of a side business hence not many or old reviews, however now full time business and reviving it. The way I/we deal with IT products warranty in the past, if it is faulty I organise everything with the customer to send it back to the authorised distributor and then I gets sorted by the distributor and the manufacturer, for example HP.
                      I'm new to the solar business and of course I only source those products from authorised distributors however so far I didn't have any warranty case….I/we will always try at any stage of a warranty case to sort everything possible out for our customers, however, if there for example is a need to lodge a warranty case with the manufacturer that is something that our customer would have to do and then the manufacturer takes over, but at any given time we are here to assist with any of that….hope that explains it a little….and I had a quick look at the Sungrow AU warranty pdf and it clearly states:

                      If the Battery is defective due to material and workmanship within a period of
                      10 years (120 months) from the date of installation (no more than ten years
                      and six months (126 months) from the manufacturing date) or if the Battery can
                      operate but fails to comply to its Performance Warranty under the standard
                      capacity test conditions, Sungrow will provide the material (replacement parts
                      or an equivalent replacement) via standard freight and standard service rebates
                      to cover the labour costs of repair. Refurbished parts may be used to repair the
                      Battery.

                      Thanks, Richard

  • Do you have someone who can install?
    How will I know if it is compatible with my solar panels?

    • Thanks……sorry, I/we don't know any good installers…..with the compatible panels….let me check and I get back to you….Thanks, Richard

    • Panels arnt the issue, they all work the same

    • Thanks to Headless…yes, all panels will just work

  • Are you able to source inverters as well?
    Looking for an 8-10kw single phase hybrid inverter, ideally sungrow for their battery compatibility.

  • I have a goodwe GW5000D-NS. Is this battery compatible?

    Or do you have any other batteries which would be?

    Thanks

    • Thanks….let me check and I get back shortly, Richard

    • Thanks….the GW5000D-NS is not a hybrid inverter, hence you can't fit a battery to it. Have a look at the Google AU website:
      https://www.goodwe.com.au/dns-series-single-phase-residentia…

      Richard

      • Thanks. Does that mean i would need to replace the invertor if i wanted a battery?

        • Thanks, yes, unfortunately that is correct…sorry, just have to organise an order…replies won't be prompt, Richard

        • +2

          @cathalm8 you absolutely can use your inverter with a battery. ANY inverter can take a battery. Your inverter is not a hybrid so just cant take a DC coupled battery which is the type that kicked off this post. You just need an AC coupled battery (the Tesla is this type amongst others). You'll have to look up what AC and DC coupling is I'm not going to tap out that amount of info in a comment :-)

          • @skysurfer: Thanks…and really sorry I gave the incorrect info…still a little new to solar products….thanks so much for correcting my comment

        • skysurfer is correct and I can get an AC coupled battery…its the AlphaESS SMILE-B3-PLUS. Have a look at:
          https://www.alphaess.com/smile-b3-plus-3kw-residential-energ…

          I will shortly quote a price to LuckyDealer so you will also know how much they are.

          Thanks, Richard

          • @IT Shopping: Hi please could you also provide me with the quote, thanks, I will DM email address now.

  • And to anyone looking on our site for IT products…..we have been focusing on Electrical and Solar products for the last 6 months….and have not done any work/update on our IT products so prices might be outdated and details/descriptions/images are very poor…and of course also the range of IT products is very small….so again please disregard those products….Thanks, Richard

  • I have a Goodwe rebadged GE inverter (model GEP10-1-10). Does it work with this battery?

  • I got GW10KAU-DT installed just last week.
    Is it compatible? and can you give pricing for installation?

    • Thanks…also with this inverter, it is not a Hybrid inverter, so no, this battery won't be compatible…sorry…have a look at:
      https://www.goodwe.com.au/sdt-g2-series-three-phase-resident…

      • Thanks, Can you pls give me a short list of compatible batteries? with pricing?

        • +1

          Thanks….what I meant…your inverter is not a Hybrid inverter…you can't add a battery to it to be charged

          • @IT Shopping: non-hybrid inverters can have AC coupled batteries I believe, and that way they get charged from panels only, is that not the right understanding?
            Like TSLA PW 2, AC in AC out. unsure about connection but I was told it is compatable.

            • @LuckyDealer: Thanks….well, you are correct….AC coupled batteries should work…sorry

          • @IT Shopping:

            1. Panels generate [DC]
            2. Inverter [i.e. goodWe solar inverter] converts [DC] to [AC] and house uses [AC]
            3. Battery takes [AC] from solar inverter and then battery's internal Inverter again converts it to [DC] to store
            4. Battery's internal inverter again converts the stored energy from [DC] to [AC] at output to send it to house usage

            I understand the efficiency impact since every conversion will have 2-3% loss which makes ~ 9% loss overall since there are 3 conversions.
            Do you have any AC-Coupled battery system? Any AC-Coupled battery system will work I believe.

            • @LuckyDealer: Thanks….yes, I actually can get them…so far checking I can get the AlphaESS SMILE-B3-PLUS…have a look at:
              https://www.alphaess.com/smile-b3-plus-3kw-residential-energ…

              If interested I can get you a price asap

              • @IT Shopping: please give me a price, installation and warranty information,thanks.
                5kw and 10kw

                • @LuckyDealer: Thanks…5kWh is $3515inc GST, Free Shipping….10kWh is $5876inc GST, Free Shipping…these are all OzBargain prices only.

                  With installation, so sorry, we are not an installer, we are only a reseller so there we won't be able to help you, my apologies

                  • @IT Shopping: will it work on a 3 phase?

                    • @LuckyDealer: Thanks…just called AlphaESS…1 last check at my distributor and will get back to you

                    • @LuckyDealer: So, when I called AlphaESS as the datasheet of that battery states "single phase" they said to make it work with a 3 phase inverter you need the AlphaESS meter….dtsu666….and I can get it…however, at this stage I would just like to remind you we only started selling solar products about 10 months ago and my knowledge is still very limited compare to IT products…hence I might not be able to give you the same support/knowledge as a business which has been doing this for several years….so in a way, yes, I can get good prices and all legit with warranty and authorised Australian distributor etc but you would need to know how all this works or get some more expert advice….thanks

                      • @IT Shopping: I believe we can not just go and change a meter, meter is not home owner's property.
                        Its owned and maintained by power supplier.
                        I will find out more information on it, can you please email me this quote? I will PM you my email address, if thats ok?
                        Also warranty, in 10 years of performance warranty, at what % of performance degrade does the warranty kick in…
                        For example, for a TSLA PW2 in 10 years if it degrades more than 30%, we get a replacement.

                        • @LuckyDealer: Thanks for the info…yes, you can PM any time…..will check the warranty again and get back to you

                        • @LuckyDealer: Had another look….the only info in the warranty pdf about performance is:
                          Alpha ESS warrants that the Product retains at least 3.12MWh of its per kWh Usable Capacityfor120 months from the start of the system’s warranty period.

                          Thanks

                        • @LuckyDealer: @LuckyDealer it's not your power meter they are talking about it's an AlphaESS product that meters the power moving through the solar/battery system. It allows management of the system. They are saying it is required for a 3 phase system.

  • What about price of SAJ battery plus hybrid inverter

    • Thanks…I'll get back to you shortly, Richard

    • So had a look…there are a bit of choice with SAJ Hybrid Inverters….do you have any in mind?….or how many kWs?…Thanks

      • 20kw
