My goal is to use a hybrid inverter to offset my home AC. I recently purchased 4 of the 12.8v 280ah eco-worthy batteries (for a 48v setup), and a 60 amp charge controller (thank you slickdeals). I need a hybrid inverter that detects grid power but does not export back. I'd rather go big like this 12kwh for future expansion.

I think it does but you may have to put current sensing coils on the AC input,,,(they are included)
I would look on Diy solar forums by Will Prowes... and search for ANENJI for a more thorough answer,,

It does connect to grid for pass thru (using grid power then switch to battery if grid goes down) and for battery charging.
12,000 W / 48V = 250 Amp, so theoretically 280Ah battery would be enough for this battery, but it won't last long if you pulling 12KW or anywhere near. You ideally need 2 sets of 48v 280Ah (or 8x 12V 280Ah batteries) which can get pricey.
My advice if you insists on using 4 x 12V 280Ah batteries is to go with a "parallel-able" 5 or 6KW inverter. It will happily run that 6KW inverter + surges, and when you ready to expand, get another identical "parallel-able" inverter and more batteries.
I have two of these 12KW inverters to build a tandem 24KW system, and I am having to connect 2x 48V 280Ah batteries per inverter which gets costly (these batteries are nearly $2K each), so I am only going to run 1 inverter for now until I can afford more batteries (or tariff drops if it ever).

My use is to see how realistic it is to store energy (and to use solar during time time) for devices my 200A home services couldn't handle, such as multizoned mini-splits, induction cooktop, etc..
