🔋EP Cube Hybrid Inverter & 20kWh Battery Installation: Complete Guide for Solar Retrofits I'm installing a 7.6 kW Hybrid EP Cube Inverter and 20 kWh of stackable battery storage in my garage! Watch my step-by-step guide as I retrofit these expandable batteries to an existing solar system, perfect for homeowners looking to add energy storage or installers seeking installation tips. This video shows how to upgrade from a 7.7 kW SMA Sunny Boy String Inverter (with Tigo Power Optimizers) to the EP CUBE Hybrid Inverter system while maintaining the Tigo Rapid Shutdown functionality. Pretty nice and easy retrofit to existing String Inverter systems (NOT Solaredge, to SolarEdge, your best option will be to AC Couple this Hybrid, unless you want to take all your optimizers down... :) This is one of the great features of this product, you can AC or DC Couple it! :) Special thanks to @CanadianSolarInc and @EPCube for providing these batteries for testing! Stay tuned for future performance tests and real-world usage data. https://www.epcube.com/ 🌞 Texas Solar Inquiries for Quotes or Consultations: 💡972 675 7725 (Call & Text) 💡https://solartimeusa.com/contact 💡info@solartimeusa.com 🏠 Outside of Texas?
