Transparency: I live in a 240v land, I have a Siggen.[0]

Not sure whether other brands could be better but there seem to be various options that would suit. If you are in 120v land you may need to check if there are models to suit.

Its largely modular, inverter sits on top of modular batteries in 8-9kw chunks.

But they are app-infested. IE wants a wifi connection, app on your phone to their servers... etc etc.

I hate it, but the wife likes it. This is a recent thing so I am still working out if there are possible solutions for privacy and control over my own objects.

Their car charger was doing my head in.

I pulled it apart and found an Ethernet plug and it was a complete game changer.

But: the app and their servers remain.
