I am in So Cal in a town where the city takes there own cut and thus electricity prices are ridiculous (Real rate calculated by taking bill and dividing by KHw is nearly $0.5 / kWh. I bought panels at 24 panels at $120 / 380 Watts call it $3K for nominal 9120 Watts but my real production is about 7800 peak 85% not bad. I bought an EG4 18KV off a guy who had planned to go off grid and an EG4 battery ~15Kwh battery to go with it for call it $8K. Another $2k in installation costs (12 panels on the flat patio cover needed angle brackets and welded up a angled patio cover on the side of the house for the other 12, some wire, flex, connectors, breaker to tie it to the panel. All in about $13K. Tax incentives cover ~1/3 so real cost is $9K. New california law only pays me $0.038 per KWh and charges me $.50 no wonder all the solar companies are going out of business. No way am I going to put power back into the grid at those prices.
My bill dropped from $400 to $150 / month. (My previous solar install under the old rules did drop to zero with no battery install required since the utility was paying me at the same rate they were charging. I get that there are infrastructure costs, but there is no way that infrastructure costs are 93% of costs. (In fact they publish that generation costs are 60%, pay us 60% and everyone would be happy)
Saving $250 month gives a payoff time of 3 years. This makes sense to me with the crazy rates in this city. It also insulates somewhat from future rate hikes. If your rates are in line with US average (about $.25) the payoff would double to 6 years.
This inverter looks a lot like the SunGold unit that Will Prowse recently used to make a dolly cart setup on YouTube. The output matches, the screen is in the same place, and both have a breaker switch on the left side. $3,200 for these 4 batteries ($800 each) is a good deal, so adding in the rack, wiring, and inverter looks pretty slick to me.

Both the Sungold & Eco Worthy are SRNE HYP series re-badges. I've had the EW version in service for almost 18 months. No issues at all. I've also got the 1st generation of the battery and version 1.5. Eco Worthy sent a replacement BMS for version 1, and I added Bluetooth to version 1.5. BT is standard on the batteries in this deal. They parallel nicely with my EG4 and Vatrer batteries.

Wait who fills them up? Solar is not included in this deal.
These have a place. I have a similar setup but much smaller like 5kwh total. I have a propane Genny that I need to run 3hrs to full charge the batt. And then it runs for about 5-6hrs during the day or 8hrs in the night. This way the gen is used most efficiently and I get a lot of quiet backup power during multi day outages.
Out here we only lose power in winters and solar charging is not much help.
