One solar battery probably can''t run all the stuff in your home, or at least not for very long. So you''ll need a way to make sure you don''t try to draw too much power at once, or run through your power too fast when you''re unsure of how long a power outage might last.
The most common workaround: Only connect the battery to some of your circuits—usually the really important stuff like the fridge, sump pump, and entertainment center, and maybe the HVAC system if there''s enough capacity.
There''s a basic old-school way to do this, with a standard critical loads sub-panel. It''s the same strategy that installers have used with backup generators for decades.
A smart panel offers extra flexibility. It works like an air traffic controller between your solar battery and your home''s energy needs, monitoring your power usage and adjusting the power flow based on rules that you (or your installer) set in an app. In some cases, a smart panel will also let you change your mind about which appliances you want to keep backed up, without hiring an electrician to require the sub panel for you.
As long as you don''t already need an entirely new electrical panel, the Lumin Smart Panel makes a lot of sense in this scenario. It''s a sub-panel but smarter, with energy monitoring and enough flexibility to adjust energy management settings through an app in real time, if that''s important to you.
That said, any smart panel or energy manager can be a fine solution for this problem. If you''re excited about features you can only get in the Span, that''s also a fine choice for many solar batteries. Ditto for Savant, Schneider Home Pulse, and Leviton Load Center. Each has pros and cons. (EnergySage is owned by Schneider Electric, manufacturers of the Pulse panel.)
Alternatives: If you don''t care as much about hands-on control, a simpler smart load controller can also be a great way to manage a solar battery, usually for less money than a smart panel. Your battery-maker might even make a smart load controller that is purpose-built to work with their product.
Our picks:Span''s everything-is-automatically-connected approach feels powerful and is easy to understand. Get it if you want it. "Smart circuit" systems from Savant, Schneider Electric, and Leviton offer as much control as most people realistically need, and can cost less.
Span feels like the most powerful choice. By default, you can control, manage, program, and otherwise fiddle with every single circuit in your home through one app.
But most homes aren''t wired in a way to make the most of these capabilities. Multiple rooms'' worth of overhead lights are often shared on a single circuit, so you can''t automate your lighting with as much nuance as you''d get with smart bulbs or smart light switches. You''d need another controller on top of the Span to get a proper smart-home experience anyway.
On the other hand, circuit-level control does make sense with large appliances: HVAC, electric stove, water heater, EV charger, hot tub, and so on. Each of those devices almost always gets its own circuit in your breaker box—so controlling the circuit is essentially the same as controlling the device.
