We sit down with Tom from Sol-Ark at our 8th Annual Solar Conference to discuss the features and benefits of the Sol-Ark 8k Hybrid Inverter. It is an easy to install solar + storage yourself with the Sol-Ark inverter/charger. It supports 8000 watts of continuous power for off grid production, and 9000 watts of continuous power for on grid. It has its own solar charge controllers and built-in over current protection, making for a complete DIY solar installation.

Wahoo! Sol-Ark! Great job both of you.

@dixiesedgwick89 3 года назад

Our friends bought the Ark and love it!

@HomesteadEngineering 5 лет назад

I use the Magnum system and I am very happy with it but this sounds like a really good option as well. I think they have a great mission statement and I hope they will be successful.

@trevorlambert4226 5 лет назад

Can this be installed where net metering is not allowed? In other words, can it be configured to power the house when solar/battery power is available and automatically switch over to grid power but NOT supply any power to the grid?

@AltEStore 5 лет назад

Yes. You can configure it to not sell back. It's done quite often.

Will this work with wind turbines?

@fly4fun24 2 года назад

As soon As I Find a video that shows a SOL- ARK working with the Enphase solar System, with Lithium batteries, I will Buy 2-12 kw

CAN THIS BE MODIFIED TO CHARGE TESLA BATTERIES FOR OFF GRID SYSTEMS?

@chrisaltvater 5 лет назад

Would this work with a battery bank made up of Battle Born Batteries?

@AltEStore 5 лет назад

Yes, Battle Borns would work great with this.

so if you have electric heat pump, electric water heater, stove, oven, MW, Drier, dish washer, and clothes washer, how does it do with inductive surges? Especially when you may have 15kwh per day? In theory, if the power were continuously being drawn, that would be a passable generation, but since things turn on and off..what happens when lots of stuff comes on at once? Additionally, when the power company wiggles the frequency to trip all the grid tied systems off line because of the duck curve, what happens with their system?

Billblom don’t think inverters the issue here. It would be you!

@Billblom 4 года назад

@@6969smurfy I spec'd out a system here several ways. If I don't use the stove, heat pump, clothes dryer and hot water heater, it is EASY. However. I do need those.. so I'm looking at (from Tesla) 3 power walls, or a huge stand-along inverter. AC starting? Starting surge needs a minimum of a large starting surge. 20+ amps at 240 volts. You may be able to stay hot for 3-4 days at a time when the power is out.. I'm not in the group. I need to take showers... water heaters are a big plus to make that possible. Heating is a must... and when the temps get below 40, the heat pump gets REAL inefficient. and guess what, that is the same huge starting surge again. The power company here just announced a 25% price hike in the next year or so, which will push this forward... Only issue: after the Lawsuit from Walmart against Tesla.. well, I can see why there were problems at solar city. burning down your customers is not a great business plan. So mine will be on a big stand in the back yard.... And batteries/inverters, charge controllers in a shed next to the stand. Why? The local Fire Department is not willing to climb on a roof covered by solar panels since it is a source of power that they have no control over..... So out in the yard it goes...

Sol-Ark is a great inverter.

@caballo2154 4 года назад

Would you ship to a US veteran retired in Panama. Power here is 120/240V split phase 60 Hz

@AltEStore 4 года назад

We ship all over the world. Contact us at the store for a quote including shipping.

@mlg779 5 лет назад

I just ordered this inverter. There is nothing else out there that can get even close. It is expensive but in US you still have this year 30% off from taxes.

@tryder7901 2 года назад

How easy is it to replace any individual component that may fail. Ie a MPPT charge controller need rqplacement.

@TRYtoHELPyou 5 лет назад

Been looking at this inverter backup thing for months now. J want to buy a storage unit, some panels, some batteries and charge my EVs from that setup.

@deniscastonguay5251 Год назад

Can it be used with 24 volt batteries

@electricengineer624 5 лет назад

Nice 👍

@onegbenga 5 лет назад

Did you ship this product to Nigeria?

@AltEStore 5 лет назад

The inverter is 120/240V split phase 50 or 60 Hz. Nigeria uses 230V 50Hz. It will not power Nigerian equipment, nor connect to the grid. However, if you are powering equipment from North America, and not connecting to the grid, we are able to ship to Nigeria through a freight forwarder with wire transfer payment. But there are more affordable products available to do that with those restrictions.

@saif080 5 лет назад

Hi. I think a much cheaper and more compatible product is being sold by Voltronic Power in South Africa called Infinisolar. They are very famous in South Africa and few Asian countries. Maybe it is easier to look for that inverter compared to the one in the video.

@THEDIESELCHANNEL Год назад

Deye does make great products

@JamesKlafehn 4 года назад

Not supporting hv batteries is a mistake. I was sold until I heard that. There are leftover ev batteries available everywhere. I have 2. My current inverter uses one and I am looking for another hybrid inverter for my second Tesla battery. It’s too bad.

Hi beautiful Haven't seen you in like 4 months we missed you 😘 Nice video 👍 I love you

I like this inverter a lot. Costs too much though. I can get two 8K inverters with 2 charge controllers on Amazon with free shipping for less than this one Sol-Ark not including their shipping. I only need around 8kwh for my home so 2 charge controller and an inverter will do, no batteries. Only interested in selling back to the power company. We get around 10 cents per Kwh here in Texas.

@erikcable1755 3 года назад

3 cents is the buy back rate...so u run your house on a 25amp breaker?what camp ground are u in?

Sol- Ark and Imeon are efficient, use 48-VDC batteries, user friendly, and simple to install hybrid inverters. The next generation of inverters has to integrate better with hot water diverters and EV charging products such as those from myenergi.com, or perhaps to integrate them as part of the inverter to add more value to the same.

@fisherus 2 года назад

Stay away from the alt-E store unless you want to get shafted by buying an outdated unit from Sol-Ark. They sold me a Sol-Ark 12K in 59V I never knew existed for a 63V model and the papers and manual included in the box all said it was a 63V model but it was not. Now I am screwed!

@truthexposed9916 4 года назад

SMA Inverters are one of the most popular Inverters installed around the world, why have you left them out of your comparison sheet, I bet its because at least for the price they shit all over the Solark.

@erikcable1755 3 года назад
