Overview
- Price checks on Wednesday highlighted 2,000 W balcony‑PV bundles with Anker SOLIX 3 as low as €1,074 at Sicatron and about €1,260 at Solarway, with extras like a smart meter, free pickup, or free shipping.
- Other current deals place the same 2,000 W + SOLIX 3 setup near €1,139 to €1,217 at Kleines Kraftwerk, while a Solarway package with the prior‑gen Solarbank 2 was listed at €1,349.
- Anker’s SOLIX Solarbank 3 E2700 Pro offers a 2.68 kWh LiFePO4 battery, four MPPT inputs and up to 3,600 W PV input in an IP65 case, with an integrated inverter, app control, Smart Meter support, and expandability to roughly 16 kWh.
- Coverage cites payback windows from roughly 1.5 to 5 years depending on sunlight, household use and power prices, and one real‑world user reported about 280 kWh in the first month with estimated monthly savings of €30 to €60.
- Germany’s simplified rules for plug‑in mini solar since 2024 allow up to 800 W feed‑in with easier registration, which along with today’s plug‑and‑play kits lowers the bar for renters and owners, though retailers warn PV prices could rise after China’s policy shift.
