Looks like a pretty sleek setup and the design is a bit chic too.
You are probably one the best channels they could choose to do an honest review and give an honest opinion on their products.

Installing a different system but as a first timer watching the electrical hookups is invaluable.

No wonder you were chosen by them to demonstrate the installation and use. You are a perfectionist and you know your audience in thoroughly explaining each step. I know nothing about it nor in the market, but I wouldn’t hesitate to defer anyone interested to view your video. I definitely enjoy each video that you and or your wife share, sometimes over again in case I missed something.

Good to see you getting something back for all the hard work you put in. Thanks for showing us it all. All the best 🇬🇧.

I'm using Solid State Batteries and having very good success.

Very clean setup. I know some of the equipment was provided at no cost so it would be interesting to see how much it would cost the average customer.

Very COOL installation. You did the job all by yourself！！👍

[johnclancy]

I think your explanations and projects are terrific. What a transformation over the past few years ! Beautiful work too. I like it when you discuss a failure or poor performance and keeping it real. That helps us the most I'd say. At some point can you talk about total cost of your solar system so us DIY folks can assess whether it fits for their application ? Thanks and keep up the great work.

Man! That's a great system. All the connections between batteries and inverter done and dusted. Plus rapid shut down prewired. Really great.

I enjoy your videos so much! A nice neat power room and well done and thought out. The back-up power is great when you live in the country, especially on a well. No electric, no water which means you cant flush your toilets. Nice job Evan. That’ll take stress off if power goes out. You still need to water your livestock too. Thanks for sharing.

All going to pay off with peace of mind and if selling back to the grid money saved. Nice installation.

[cmiyeru]

very nice and clean installation ! love that "blink" of light to indicate the system had transitioned from on-grid to off-grid and running with just the battery. Thank you for the demonstration.

[jeffl.dillard]

I’m a general contractor and I would love to have a system like this but it’s pretty clear you need to be a master electrician to understand and install a system like this!!!

[lynnelewis]

Hi u got looking so tidy it is so nice when u don't c the wires. X

[an_almighty_one]

Very professionally done video and installation! Best installation video I've seen so far. 👍
Great job. Thanks for sharing! 🙏

[olddawgdreaming]

Thanks for correcting the audio, makes for a much better presentation of the products. It went in well and seems to be what you wanted now if it meets all your expectations things will work out well for both . Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

Even my comments below were meant for Nathan in out of the woods but your channel also gets the tag of one of our favorites for the same reasons so i guess i got a two for one here. my wife and I like everything that you do you're like one of our families. It's so relaxing to watch you do your work whether it be building or just talking or sawing. You are very suited for this gig with a very pleasant personality. We subscribe to over 300 channels, you are one of the best. Up there with AL Lumnah, Mike Morgan, Shawn James, and Josh at Stony Ridge. 😊🎉

Evan, you made it look easy and explained the process very well. Here in Ireland electricity can cost as much as .50c per ye are lucky at 0.14c. Thankfully I too have solar and it helps reduce the cost.

Bravo, You ticked every box, Beautifully installed, very neat outcome, well explained and honest thoughts, it looks like a very well thought out expandable system and almost trendy in its looks. EP Cube 100% picked the right channel for displaying the system. My hope is that the evaluation carries on for years because nearly all evaluation reviews (all products) focus on the first few months. With what is a undoubtedly a substantial investement most people want to see the long term picture. Can I also say, that I walk away from channels that get driven by commercial gain but so far you are not getting to focused on that and what you do do is low key. Been a follower for a long time and enjoy your channel.
