The battery includes an inverter featuring six solar inputs with maximum power point trackers (MPPTs). The device has reportedly a solar-to-grid efficiency of 97.5%.
The new product comes with a 10-year product warranty.
PW3 is optimized for ease of installation & high power, which means that a single Powerwall can serve as an uninterruptible power supply for most homes.
This is a big deal for ensuring that the lights stay on and you can power all your devices in the event of a power outage.
