Looking forward to a review of these new minis. Seems to be a new form factor. Like the LiTime PowerQueen Redodo mini but not so tall.

We are anxiously awaiting someone who has bought these new minis to tell us about them. First I want accurate dimensions and weights. Can you get weights and dimensions before they get installed?

Panels are located near LA, so shipping in California could be under 1000. Shipping price of 3300 would be for Chicago, Dallas or Seattle.

The auction finished and only a few truckloads received bids. For example High bid $500 for truckload of 350 solar panels. Truckload freight $3,300.

Of course you are right. You must have amazing discipline. Some of us are tempted with a full truck load of solar panels (350 per truckload) that are going for only a couple dollars per panel. This auction is for 15 truckloads of 350 panels per truckload. Only the first truckload has any...

Yep, that someone was almost me.... Just press the big BID NOW button. What could possibly go wrong??? I wonder why the auction only listed the first page of the specs. They would have had to intentionally strip the second page out. Maybe they didn't want this information to be easy to find????

Most solar panels seem to be 30-50 volts VOC but not these. Yes, this is from a single 465w panel. There is truckloads of these panels for sale on solarauction.com and the price will be very low. Link to specs I had to really dig to find these specifications. For the auction, they only...

This mini battery has similar dimensions to the LiTime/ Power queen / Redodo mini batteries. Does this battery share the same design inside with pouch cells and ability to mount the battery on the sides, on the ends and even upside down?

XZNY confirms their batteries may be mounted upside down without problem. Looking at Brad Cagles teardown video of these batteries doesn't leave me feeling comfortable that they are designed with internal support for upside down mounting. So even though they may approve this, it likely isn't...

I asked the vendor to confirm the dimensions. They came back confirming the height was as listed. Somebody needs to get one and tell us....

Yesterday evening the skies opened up and the fountains of the deep activated, and there was flooding everywhere. The EG4-3000 was running and sitting partially under an eave covered in a tarp. Thank goodness for the tarp. The eave didn't protect it at all.

How much moisture can the eg4 3000 take while it is running and charging batteries and creating AC current? Making a mobile charge cart like this will tempt us to sit the unit out by the solar panels for ease of charging. At some point, it is likely that a we bit of rain will happen. How...

Mounting LFE 12v batteries upside down makes the connections and wiring very short. It makes the hooking up the batteries on top (the ones that are upside down) more challenging. It also makes the final unit more compact. The PowerQueen / LiTime / Redodo all seem to be made for mounting in...

A weight of less that 38lb should be expected as the case can be much lighter. Hope it delivers what you need. Regarding size I don't see the vertical dimensions, but it looks too tall to compete with your Redodo minis

Yeah, I could, but I want it to stay small and compact. I'll just use a 2 wheel dolly for now until I get some brilliant design figured out.

The solar input are the black and red lines on the ground. This needs more work as the cables are 12 feet long. The simplest would be to have 12 inch pigtails come out the bottom and be held safely off the ground with some kind of a hook or loop for safe transport. But this doesn't provide a...

No, there is only one. (the second one was only temporary to brace the install so you get a prize for finding the hidden gem) This Anderson connector is for adding a second 48v battery pack to give more than 100ah, or to hook 2 of these systems together for 220v split phase.

So far there is no drift and no balancer installed yet. I will see how it behaves over time.

I use a dolly to provide wheels, but yeah. Maybe some solid lift handles too. For solar panels, yeah this baby wants lots and lots of panels.

Up on top, and upside down (not shown) are 2 PowerQueen / LiTime / Redodo minis, (5.25 x 10.25 x 9) and down below are 2 GrenerPower / LiPuls / CyclenBatt / XZNY mini (5.4 x 9 x 8)

New 12v 100ah mini LFP batteries triggered my interest. How small can we go? Final dimensions 22 x 21 x 11 and about 120lbs. I could make it a little smaller, but wanted some clearance between the bottom of the EG4 3000 and the ground for ventilation. The breakers are on the back side...

New mini by DJLBERMPW Dimensions are like LiTime but not as tall (if you believe the Amz dimensions) Since this seems to be smaller than any other mini yet to market, we await confirmation that this isn't simply a typo in the listing.

I must have misread those. I was sure I saw 12 inches. Looks like the LiTime case maybe but not as tall. Perhaps a typo with the dimensions or something new entirely. Maybe someone who has one can chime in with confirmed dimensions?

I don't see any confirmation of the mini size. They are showing dimensions that are the same as the older larger battery. Perhaps just not updated the Amazon listing? I wonder if this is the LiTime/PowerQueen/Redodo mini, or the GrenerPower/Cyclenbatt/Lipuls mini form factor, or something...

But if you like to sleep in after the sun comes up, and the sun is intermittent with clouds the fan noise will cycle up and down.

Has anyone heard anything interesting coming to compete with this inverter? Some weather protection would be nice as this inverter is great on a solar cart outdoors. Having more competition in this space would be great.

Note, the width of the battery is not 5.1" but 5.4"

Yes, even smaller. I wonder what that battery size is called? Is there a group number?

Agreed. I expected these minis (LiTime, PowerQueen, Redodo) to become more prevalent with more suppliers for this form factor. But it appears that this other mini form factor (GrenerPower/LiPuls/Cyclenbatt) form factor is generating more competition. I wonder why?

Cold temperature charging protection was not something I tested with the minis noted above (PowerQueen, Redodo, GrenerPower) I'm glad Brad included that in his review.

And one more from Cyclenbatt?? See Brad Cagle's review. Prismatic cells and low temp charging protection for $225.

It seems like LiPuls has a mini in the same box as the GrenerPower. More minis coming???

So there is nobody other than LiTime PowerQueen Redodo selling this $200 mini form factor. The Lion ut1300 is a different beast at $700.

The 10.25" x 5.25" x 9" batteries are real nice. I have heard that these 3 batteries are all made by the same factory in Shenzhen. LiTime mini Redodo mini PowerQueen mini Have any other competitors joined in making this size ? I want to find all factories making this size.
