    Tesla Powerwall 3 Vs Enphase 5P VS Franklin WH vs Tesla Powerwall 2 Vs Enphase 5p Battery

    The Best Home Solar Battery Review: Tesla Powerwall vs. Franklin WH vs. Enphase 5P Battery

    This video discusses the market share of home solar batteries and evaluates the specs, features, cost, and suitability of the Tesla Powerwall, Franklin WH, and Enphase 5P batteries. The capacity of the batteries is compared, with the Franklin WH having the highest capacity of 13.6 kWh, followed by the Tesla Powerwall (13.5 kWh), and Enphase 5P (5 kWh). It is mentioned that smaller capacity batteries, like Enphase, allow for easier expansion by adding additional units. The peak power output and continuous power output of the batteries are also compared. Enphase 5P has the advantage in terms of peak power output, while Tesla Powerwall 3 has the highest continuous power output. The dimensions and mounting options of the batteries are discussed, with Tesla Powerwall 3 being the most space-efficient option. Battery chemistry, communication, and coupling systems are discussed as well. All batteries, except for Tesla Powerwall 2, use lithium iron phosphate (LFP), which is preferred due to its safety features. Wired communication is preferred for reliability, and AC coupling is used for Tesla Powerwall 2, Franklin WH, and Enphase 5P, while DC coupling is used for Tesla Powerwall 3. The suitability of each battery for new and add-on systems is also addressed. Overall, the video provides a comprehensive review to help viewers make an informed decision about the best home solar battery for their needs.

    Solar Battery Comparison: Power Wall 2 vs Power Wall 3 vs Franklin WH vs Enphase 5P

    In this video, Solar By Green Greg compares the Power Wall 2, Power Wall 3, Enphase 5P and Franklin solar batteries. He explains that the Power Wall 3 is designed for new systems and offers advantages in terms of lower cost and higher efficiency due to its built-in inverter. However, it requires rewiring if added to an existing system, making it less suitable for those scenarios. On the other hand, the Power Wall 2 and Franklin are better options for existing systems or add-ons.In this section, Solar By Green Greg discusses the different battery options for home solar systems. The Franklin battery is likely a lower-cost option that provides good value for money. The Tesla Powerwall 2 is a mid-range option, while the Powerwall 3 is more suitable for new systems as it eliminates the need for a separate solar inverter. The Enphase 5P battery is the most expensive option but offers the best integration and a 15-year warranty. The Franklin battery is more flexible with other brands of equipment, while the Powerwall 2 can work with most other brands of solar inverters but doesn’t integrate them into one app. It is advised to consult with a solar installer to assess individual needs and priorities.

    Franklin WH… This Small Company Is taking Over Solar Home Battery Backup!

    Key Insights about the Franklin WH Battery

    The Franklin WH Battery is a residential battery system that includes an Agate X  controller and Apower battery. It is compact in size, making it easy to install on a garage wall or outside. The battery chemistry is lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4), which is considered a safer option compared to lithium-ion batteries. The battery has a capacity of 13.6 kilowatt-hours per unit, and up to 15 units can be stacked. It has a warranty of 12 years and is AC coupled, meaning it has its own inverter inside the battery box. The Franklin Home Power (FHP)  system manages solar, battery, EV Charging, generator and load management all is one app! –even if these are different brands. Allowing users to decide when to run certain appliances and monitor their power usage through the FHP app. The battery is compatible with most brands of home inverters and can be used both on and off the grid. The warranty guarantees the battery at 70% capacity for 12 years or 43 megawatt-hours. THis is better warranty than other companies… most others have 10 yrs , 60% capacity warranty. This is breif summarywatch video for more details. 

    Enphase  IQ Battery 5p VS Enphase 10T.. What Is The Difference? Which is Better Enphase 5p vs Tesla Powerwall?

    In this video, Green Greg compares the features and advantages of the Enphase IQ battery 5p and the IQ battery 10t. The IQ 5p has a capacity of 5 kWh, while the 10t has a capacity of 10 kWh. Despite having half the capacity, the 5p has a higher peak power output, making it suitable for running power-hungry items. Both batteries are AC coupled and have a round-trip efficiency of 90%. The 5p is smaller and lighter than the 10t, making it easier to install in tight spaces. It also has six microinverters, providing redundancy and improved system reliability. The 5p is field serviceable, allowing for easy replacement of faulty microinverters without removing the entire battery system. The battery uses wired communication, which is more reliable than wireless communication. The 5p can be wall or floor mounted, while the 10t is wall-mount only. Both batteries have mobile app control, storm guard, and generator support. The 5p also offers additional generator integrations. They both come with a 15-year warranty and use cobalt-free lithium iron phosphate chemistry, known for its safety and lack of thermal runaway. Overall, the 5p offers scalability, reliability, and smart engineering features, making it a cost-effective choice for homeowners.The Enphase system includes an app that manages the entire home energy system, providing monitoring of solar panels and the ability to control other devices such as pool pumps, electric vehicles, and air conditioners. The 5P battery in the Enphase system has double the peak and continuous power compared to other batteries, allowing for larger appliances and more items to be powered. It also has a 15-year warranty and improved reliability with wire communication. Solar By Green Greg compares the Enphase 5P battery to the Tesla Powerwall, highlighting the advantages of each, such as higher peak power and generator integration for Enphase, and lower price and hybrid inverter for Tesla. In conclusion, the Enphase Generator Support Option and 5P battery offer reliable power management during outages and the ability to optimize solar panel usage. The app provides convenient monitoring and control of the entire system. It is recommended to consult with a local solar installer to determine the appropriate battery system for individual needs.

    What Solar Panels are the best technology? 

    As an independent solar panel installer, Green Planet is able to offer a variety of brands based on customers’ needs and priorities. However, we believe Panasonic Solar is the best in terms of performance, warranty, a well-known brand name that is likely to be around to service the warranty. Below we will discuss Pansonic Solar advantages.  Pansonic solar has two product lines .. HIT and Evervolt Solar Panels. The Evervolt is similar to HIT but has a higher power density (more watts per square foot) but also costs more than HIT.  

    Panasonic Solar Panels Logo Panasonic Evervolt Solar PanelsPanasonic Hit Solar Panels

    Is A Higher Wattage Solar Panel Better?

    Many Solar panels manufacturers boast about their solar panel’s advertised wattage is high and this can mislead a customer into thinking higher wattage is better.  However, most of the time that higher wattage solar panel is larger in size than Panasonic and is actually less wattage and less electric production per square feet of roof space. The electric production per square feet is also called power density. Power density is important because homeowners want to produce 100% of their electric use to maximize savings however oftentimes there is limited roof space.  In the Example below,  The Pansonic EV370  system size is 7400 watts  at 376 sq ft vs other brands 400 watt 7200 watts and 391 sq ft.  Even though the other brand is 400 watts per solar panel it takes up more roof space and smaller system watts ..than the Panasonic EV370 watt.

    Panasonic EV 370 — more electric production with less roof space!

    Solar Panels For Whole Home FAQ’s:

    If the electricity goes out will I have power with solar?

    If the electric company has a power outage you must have batteries to have electricity. Solar panels produce electric but not store it! How solar batteries work: Solar panels charge battery… when there is a power outage, there is a transfer switch that switches your most important items to solar battery… such as refrigerator, lights, etc. Ask for details.

    For a whole house solar panel system how many solar panels do I need?

    Most average home solar systems are 20 to 35 solar panels. The number of solar panels needed is based on a lot of factors … the  solar radiation of the roof,  How much electricity do you want to generate?–more electricity generation means more watts of solar panels.  What is the wattage of the solar panels?  How much roof space you have that is not shaded  and not facing North… the direction of roof… a south roof has more sun and therefore requires less solar panels, etc. Every home is different in terms of electric usage and solar electric generation potential ….. We can put one solar system on your house .. and a second  IDENTICAL solar system on your next door neighbors house …. the two houses will generate a different amount of electricity with same solar equipment!  Green Planet Solar  uses high tech solar design tools based on YOUR HOME, YOUR ROOF TOP, YOUR ELECTRIC BILLS,  and the solar panel mfr specifications … to come up with a reasonable estimate of savings, system costs, solar incentives etc. Call us for a Free Solar Quote.

    How many solar panels are needed for a 2,000 square foot home?

    The amount of solar panels is not based on square feett … instead it is based on amount of electric  you want to generate and the solar potential of your home… but in general most homes of modest size…and modest electric use require 20-35 solar panels…Green Planet Solar  uses cutting edge solar design tools based on YOUR HOME, YOUR ROOF TOP, YOUR ELECTRIC BILLS,  and the solar panel mfr specifications … to come up with a reasonable estimate of savings, system costs, solar incetives etc. Call us for a Free Solar Quote.

    How much do solar panels cost for a 2,000 square foot home?

    Home solar panel systems generally start at $100+ month . The cost of solar panels is not based on sq ft … rather it is based on amount of electric  you want to generate and the solar potential of your home roof top… Keep in mind the amount of electric needed is based on how energy efficient your home is, energy use habits,  and your electric use. We have seen  homes on this size that have $400 /month bills .. lousy energy efficiency.. and owner keeps air conditioning on a low temp 68 degrees  vs  a second customer same size home $200 month.. high energy efficiency  and owner runs air conditioner at 76 degrees.  So as you can see .. the best way is to get a custom solar quote based on YOUR electric Bills, Your home, desired financing plan, plus solar incentives etc… We can offer a complete solar proposal including a picture of solar panels on your roof , electric bills before and after solar, solar incentives etc. Call us for a free no obligation  solar quote.

    How Many Solar Panels Do I need for  producing 2,000 kWh per month?

    A Custom Design must be built to determine number of solar panels needed and a price. Every home is different…   The number of solar panels is determined by the electric use of the home and the solar potential of the roof. There are many factors : your home location City, State; roof direction (South , East, West) , roof slope, shading factors, solar panels wattages, solar panels performance specifications, Solar inverter specifications, etc.  Two homes next to each other.. same solar system equipment …. but each home will produce a different amount of electric…because of these differences. Like most home improvements it is best to get a custom solar quote based on your home. Ask us for a free solar quote.

    Do you really save money with solar panels 2024?

    Yes! If You Have A qualified Sunny Roof For Solar.  Over 25 yrs  the average home can save about $100,000 in electric costs with solar panels! This savings takes into account the increasing electric rates.  Call us to see if your home is suitable for solar.

    Are Solar Panels Free?

    Ugggghhhhhhh! Charlie Brown…. it sounds like you had another run-in with Lucy!  Solar panels are not free!  The sun is free … but you have to buy solar panels to make electricity… Swap your increasing electric company bill for a lower fixed solar payment.  You can buy solar panels with $0 out-of-pocket, and  spend less than what you pay the local electric company. Call us to to get a real honest solar quote.

    Is it worth it to get solar panels in Florida 2024?

    Yes, Solar is worth it in Florida if you have a good sunny roof facing South , East, West, or between these… and an electric bill about $150+ average,   the average home  solar system can save you about $100,000 over 25 yrs vs electric company!  Call us to for a free solar quote  to see the math.

    How long do solar panels last?

    Solar Panels can last up to 40 years however they gradually lose efficiency over time. Lost efficiency means the solar panels produce less power. Many home solar panels are warrantied 80% of original electric power output on the 25th year…. Panasonic Solar warranties 90% of original power output on 25th year!  You can plan ahead and buy a few extra solar panels .. or as solar panels age  you can add  a few more solar panels to make up for energy loss depending on how old and energy output …when they get too weak it may be a good idea to toss them..

    Can I buy and install My own home solar panels?

    We do NOT recommend  home solar system.. as a DIY -do it yourselfers project… it’s a lot more complicated than just bolting panels to your roof ….. A home solar system is high voltage 430 Volts AC … if it is a DC voltage on roof top its even higher voltages… Installation requires a permit including Florida Engineer stamped Solar engineering plans complete with wind load, building, and electrical calculations. The solar installation must installed in a way that complies with Florida building and fire codes. Get a licensed solar company to install it … be safe, keeps the manufacture warranty in force….. As you can imagine… if you cross a wire and blow an inverter or damage the solar panels … the manufacturer will not warranty if you are not a licensed installer!

    What company makes the best solar panels 2024?

    For home solar panels…also called whole house Solar Electric … we recommend Panasonic Solar Panels… Panasonic costs a little bit more than other major brands but have best warranty for the money  Triple guard:25 yrs product/ 25yrs power output/ 25yrs labor warranty with Green Planet), higher power output in hot weather vs other brands,  higher power output 25th yr 90%, and a well-known company that has been in business over 100yrs and has the financial stability to honor their warranty.  Call us to learn more.

    How Is Green Planet Solar Systems Dealing with Covid19? Does your Solar Panel Installer Need to Enter he Home?
    We have a no contact when possible further we practice social distancing.   For Solar Electric Panels … We need access to side of house meter, garage ,  and attic. We will keep distance  by providing on-line solar quotes, Installers will call when we arrive instead of knocking, and of course we ask all employees not to come to work if exposed or suspect they have virus or any sickness.

    Will Solar Panels Ruin My Home Roof? 

    We understand homeowners’ concern about preserving the roof.. Solar roof flashings , the roof attachments are simular to roof vents that ypou already have on the roof. Also the designs have improved over the years … most mfrs have a 20-25 yrs warranty. Here is a quick video of Iron Ridge Roof Flashing for shingle roofs as an example : IR Flashfoot
