1600W + 3kWh | Plug&Play Solar + Battery
Original price was: $6,649.61.$6,149.61Current price is: $6,149.61.
These are the best plug&play solar with storage value deals you will find anywhere in the States. It's permission-free, so all you need is a regular wall socket to install a full solar system with a smart battery to store any excess energy for later.
The solar system comes with multiple 200W solar panels, smart micro-inverters and cables. The solar panels are our latest innovation: Bifacial solar panels that produce up to 30% more energy than the equivalent regular 200W panels. They're also light and sturdy at only 8.8 lbs, with a thickness of 0.16 in. You can hang them just about anywhere, such as balcony railings, fences, windows, trees, any anything else you can think of. Each panel comes with 12 eyelets, which makes installing the panels with zip-ties super easy.
Our Smart Solar Batteries are fully plug&play and are two types of batteries in one stunning package. All you need is a free wall outlet and WiFi to connect it to our App for management and control.
Got lots of sun, but aren't using a lot of power at the moment? No problem: the CraftStrom Smart Battery works together with our plug&play solar kits and the PowerMeter as a smart storage for the solar energy you can't immediately use. Save money at home, or take the battery with you on adventures. Features offgrid charging and can even act as an Uninterruptible Power Supply.

How much can I save?
You can produce up to 3,400 kWh every year or 85,000 kWh over the lifetime of the system. That’s enough power to run your average A/C unit for 32 years straight. We provide the warranties and the sun is free!
Can I get the solar tax credit from the government?
Yeah, sure. Here is what you need to know. To get the solar tax credit of 30% of the total system price, just make sure that
- You own the system, i.e. you bought it under your name
- It’s installed at your home in the U.S.
- The system is new and has never been installed.
- Any battery has to have at least 3kWh capacity.

What regulates my solar system?
The PowerMeter regulates the electricity flows between your appliances and our battery system. Only produce as much energy as you need, so you don’t need to deal with your utility – you don’t need an interconnection agreement or any other permissions from them. This is called zero-export and our unique solution regulates this every 0.1 seconds.
Is it safe to connect to a power outlet?
Yes! A power outlet is just a connection point for electrical devices. It allows power flow in both directions, but the NEC requires a breaker to also measure ingoing power flow. Our NEC Smart Breaker does exactly that and allows you to connect your plug&play solar system directly to any standard power outlet. It is smart, because it constantly watches the power flow in your home circuit. Should it detect a problem, it will physically disconnect (galvanic separation) the CraftStrom products and remove any risk.
Why should I get a battery?
A solar battery can have multiple functions for you. Thankfully, our battery solves a few problems at once, so you don’t have to buy multiple products to deal with them all.
- To store solar power. You don’t necessarily need all the solar power when it’s generated. A battery allows you to store that energy for later, like for the evening. The CraftStrom battery is in constant communication with the PowerMeter and the solar system, so it knows exactly when it can store energy that’s not needed at the moment.
- To have backup power, in case of a power outage. Instead of having one battery somewhere central, our batteries are modular, so you can simply place them wherever you need power most.
- To use as an Uninterruptible Power Supply for critical issues, such as personal medical devices. Unlike other home battery solutions, our modular design allows for keeping critical devices separately up- and running. You can even charge each battery tower individually from solar.
- To provide power during outdoor adventures, like camping trips. Usually, you’d have to buy a separate battery for this purpose, but the CraftStrom batteries are easily taken out of their grid-connected bases. Simply pull it out of the base and take it with you. It will charge directly from solar in about 4 hours.
How does the battery know when to charge from- or discharge into my home?
Simple. We developed a highly secure and redundant communication system into all our products. It uses two modes of communication:
- WiFi, where it connects to your home WiFi router. It allows our products to send and receive data from the APP. This data is non-critical for the operation of our products. It simply send info to your screen, or takes instructions to then use.
- CrafTalk, which uses frequencies lower than WiFi. This allows our products to communicate through walls, over long distances, without interference from other devices. Since we coded this ourselves, it’s the safest way for our products to talk. Also, since the signals don’t have to take a detour through the internet, our servers and back, this communication happens in about 0.1 seconds. This is essential, if you want to run our system “permission-free”, because you then don’t sell energy back to the grid.
Since all our products use the same communication module, they create their own network. The PowerMeter will constantly check our energy use, check that use against your solar production, and then decide what to do. It can tell the battery to store energy for later, it can tell the battery to support your solar system during high use, or it can tell it to do nothing.
Of course, you can also program the battery yourself, using the App. It uses a simple scheduler to allow you to charge and discharge any day of the week, at any time, with a range of power.
