Thats all super helpful, appreciate the advice everyone. 

I’ve not used the sol ark 15 and just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything about battery options.

And specifically the ones that don’t seem to play well.

HomeGrid works great with Sol-Ark. Closed loop comms reports battery SOC from BMS. Parallel stacks install easily. Customer support is competent and patient, in my experience.

The best part is the ability to easily add batteries. On Sunday I had a client with two stacks of five batteries each call me in a panic ahead of Hurricane Milton. He wanted more capacity. We had them in stock. On Monday my team added three batteries to each stack on the fly since we couldn't do a roof install that day due to rain. We had it done in about 2 hours, and that included moving the stacks due to a height conflict with a piece of equipment.

And now, 48 hours later, I'm looking out my home office window at the trees bent over. A tornado passed close by a few hours ago, debris pelting my windows, and a neighbor lost their lanai ceiling. Too close for comfort! But I have power, at least. :)

Wish us luck.

We’ve been installing the Tesla power wall 3 and have had zero issues, a very robust product, downside is no generator support.

 2 – Homegrid both required quite a bit of programming assistance not everyone who answered the phone was knowledgeable enough to get the fixes installed.

2 – Pytes fired up fine no issues.

2 – Solar Edge both required assistance, quick & simple fixes with Tech staff.

I have a client who has started off with “I want Tesla batteries” how has Tesla batteries faired on installation?
