Our verdict on each
Deye
Deye suits buyers who want balcony solar and a home battery from the same maker, and its 10 year warranty outlasts the group median of 5 years. The trade-off sits at the output end, where 1,100 W of peak power keeps it aimed at small flats rather than whole-house loads.
Enphase
Enphase suits US households that already have solar or plan it and want backup storage, panels and a home battery from the same maker. It earns its place on build choices rather than scale: cells are lithium iron phosphate (lifepo4), and buyers wanting whole-home capacity will look elsewhere.

Pros and cons
Deye
Pros
- Warranty of 10 years, which places Deye at 1 of 19 brands and above the group median of 5 years.
- Balcony solar and home battery from the same maker, where WattCycle LiFePO4 covers home battery on its own.
- UPS mode on the balcony unit, so a small load can run through an outage instead of only storing daytime solar.
Cons
- Output of 1,100 W puts Deye at 24 of 24 brands, so it will not carry heavy loads.
- Entry price of €600 is above the ranking median of €262.21 and ranks 19 of 27 brands on price.
- Support runs on email and chat, and phone is the route 66.7% of the brands in this group keep open.
Enphase
Pros
- Cells are lithium iron phosphate (lifepo4), the chemistry behind 96% of the brands on our data.
- The range covers power station, home battery and solar panel, so a panel, a portable power station and a home battery can come from a single maker and a single support desk.
- Solar input of 400 W lets the pack refill from an array rather than only from a wall socket.
Cons
- Maximum capacity is 1,532 Wh, which puts Enphase at 28 out of 28 brands on our capacity table, so storage for a long evening is limited.
- Peak output of 1,500 W ranks 22 out of 24 brands, below the category median of 4,000, so heavy loads cannot run together.
- The portable range is listed for US only, so buyers in any other market have to look at another maker.
Who each suits
Deye
Who it suits
- Buyers who want balcony solar and a home battery from the same maker, rather than the portable power station route power station and home battery opens up at DATOUBOSS.
- Households that plan around service life rather than peak power, given 10 years of cover against a group median of 5 years, with support handled on email and chat.
- Buyers who want a balcony system under one long warranty and are not shopping for the panel-inclusive range power station, solar generator and home battery covers at ALLPOWERS.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who only want a home battery with no balcony kit, since WattCycle LiFePO4 lists home battery on its own and suits a pure storage brief.
- Shoppers wanting a portable power station in the same basket, since DATOUBOSS lists power station and home battery and Deye's balcony solar and home battery leaves out a power station.
Enphase
Who it suits
- US households with rooftop or balcony solar who want storage and a home battery from the same maker.
- People who need a router, monitor and laptop to survive an outage, since uninterruptible power supply mode is available.
- Buyers who put cell longevity and cover length above having the largest pack available.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want a solar generator or balcony solar, because ALLPOWERS covers power station, solar generator and home battery and Enphase does not.
- Anyone shopping outside US, the only market listed for this range.
- Households that want a portable power station and panels with no home battery, since Jackery covers power station, solar generator and solar panel and stops there.

Questions about each
Deye
What does a Deye balcony system cost?+
Deye's energy storage range starts at €600. That figure covers the hardware, so the 10 year warranty is what sets the value horizon rather than any contract term. Against the field, the entry price ranks 19 of 27 brands and sits above the ranking median of €262.21, so expect to pay more than the typical starting figure here.
How much storage can a Deye system hold?+
The largest unit in the range holds 10,000 Wh of energy. That places Deye at 12 of 28 brands on storage size, comfortably above the group median of 7,994, though a long way short of the biggest cabinets at 94,500.
Enphase
How long is the warranty on the Enphase portable range?+
Cover runs 5 years on the portable energy range, a long term next to most of the field in our warranty table. Enphase ranks 9 out of 19 brands on warranty length, so the term is longer than a good share of the field, though it is not the longest listed.
How much power does the pack put out?+
Peak output is 1,500 W, enough for a fridge-freezer, a router and lighting together, not for heating or cooking loads. On our data that output ranks 22 out of 24 brands, so treat the unit as a short outage supply rather than a whole-home system.
