Well.. it's probably annoying if you've set an alert for 'generator' deals and 4/5 matches are actually just Battery/Inverter combos like this.

At any rate... $1359+tax is pretty solid for a Delta Pro, even if it is refurb... EF still warranties it for 5yrs.

Yes, but it MUST be NEW, not used or refurbished. These refurbished units DO NOT qualify.

I personally feel the law is vague enough such as to allow a person to claim an EV that is capable of bidirectional charge, i.e. like my EV6 which connects to a 6 circuit 120 volt transfer panel in my garage. If I had not bought it used , I would 100% have attempted to claim it at $39,000 for an $11,700 tax credit. Its functionally no different than any of these portable batteries. If they qualify, so can an EV that is bidirectional and "installed" to the home with a transfer switch. Really think about it, if these portable batteries with wheels can qualify, so can a car that does literally the same thing.

I thought they had to be stationary to qualify?

Quote from FairSnail337 :
You can heat the panel with the 30 amp 115 volts output. You have to turn off the main. My electrician put a safety bar in so the spare 30 amp circuit can only power the panel when the main is off. Works great. I have internet and tv when the power goes out for at least 6 hours. Then I only have to listen to the Predator inverter generator for 1.6 hours which is how long it takes to charge the Eco Pro back up again.
YEah I get that part but you need to power both circuits of 110. This only has one. Unless you connected both to the same 110 circuit?
edit: or are you using two of them and using the 220 option ?

Check out this post. It's also important to get a "2" model, since they use Lifepo4 batteries which are safe to leave in the car

It does not say that anywhere in the law, else all these portable batteries would not be advertising their eligibility.

Right, anything that was previously owned/used does not qualify.

https://www.irs.gov/credits-deduc...rgy-credit

Read the part under "Qualified expenses" . I suspect this tax credit will put a target on most folk's back, so if you were to be audited, it would not end well. This is the first year that people will be able to claim standalone batteries so there may also be a lot of fraud that goes along with that, this happened with the $7500 EV tax credit for a number of years.

Fair to say there are a few unanswered questions. I think a lot of this will be cleared up when the IRS releases the Form 5695 for tax year 2023 (that adds the battery storage qualifier).

Not as long as you can plug a solar panel into them to generate it into usable voltage.

Are gas generators not generators because you aren't supplied with unlimited gasoline?

Battery Prices are expected to fall further so waiting is worth it. Also Ecoflow has Ultra model scheduled to be released in few weeks.

Definitely wait if you can

I doubt the new ultra will be priced anywhere close to this deal. Not for a while at least.

What that person likely mean is that the price of these Delta pro units may soon drop further, especially as the new Ultra model takes the top spot as the mobile home backup solution.
