Product Description

This kit pairs the EG4 FlexBOSS21 hybrid inverter — up to 21 kW of usable PV input and 16 kW of AC output with solar contribution per EG4 — with the EG4 WallMount 314Ah All-Weather battery, an IP67-rated 16 kWh unit built for indoor or outdoor mounting. Configure one to three batteries for 16, 32, or 48 kWh of storage, all communicating in closed-loop within a single-manufacturer system. OffGrid Horizon is a family-owned authorized EG4 dealer, and every kit ships with full manufacturer warranty support.

Who This Is For

Larger homes and heavier simultaneous loads: central air plus a well pump plus a range, shop tools, or a larger solar array that would outgrow the FlexBOSS18. Per EG4, the FlexBOSS21 accepts up to 5 PV strings and passes through 90A of utility power at 120/240V, making it the higher-headroom choice in the FlexBOSS line — with batteries that can mount outdoors beside it.

Key Features

  • Up to 21 kW of usable PV input across up to 5 strings per EG4
  • 16 kW AC output with solar contribution; 12 kW continuous from battery alone per EG4
  • 90A grid feed-through at 120/240V per EG4 for whole-home pass-through wiring
  • IP67 all-weather batteries — 16 kWh per unit, wall- or floor-mounted, indoor or outdoor
  • Closed-loop communication between inverter and batteries over CAN/RS485, with Auto-ID addressing as you add units
  • 10,000-cycle battery rating at 80% depth of discharge per EG4
  • Grid-tied, backup, and off-grid operating modes with app-based remote monitoring

Why EG4

EG4 Electronics is a Texas-based manufacturer that builds both halves of this system, publishes full spec sheets and test data, and backs the inverter and batteries with 10-year warranties. One engineering team, one support line, one communication protocol — no cross-brand compatibility guesswork.

What's In the Kit

  • 1 x EG4 FlexBOSS21 hybrid inverter — split-phase 120/240V, UL3141 and UL1741 certified per EG4
  • 1, 2, or 3 x EG4 WallMount 314Ah All-Weather batteries (16 kWh each) — the listed configuration includes one battery; select your capacity from the product options

Solar panels, racking, and array wiring are site-specific and sold separately. The system also operates as battery backup without solar.

Grid-Tied, Backup, or Off-Grid

Grid-tied: the FlexBOSS21 manages solar production, battery charging, and export under UL1741 interconnection rules — your utility and AHJ govern export permissions. Backup: when the grid drops, the system transfers to battery power; if you chose the 21 for its output headroom, plan storage to match, since heavier loads draw a bank down faster — 32 or 48 kWh suits whole-home coverage. Off-grid: the same hardware runs fully off-grid, sized by your daily load and sun hours. For whole-home microgrid control — AC coupling, smart load management, and generator integration per EG4 — add the EG4 GridBoss 200A MID.

Inverter Compatibility

The batteries in this kit run closed-loop with the included EG4 FlexBOSS21 hybrid inverter, so state-of-charge and charge parameters stay coordinated out of the box. Individual WallMount 314Ah All-Weather batteries are available separately when you are ready to expand the bank.

Installation

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician — the inverter interconnects with your main panel and, in grid-tied modes, with the utility, and energy storage installations require local permits and inspection. Each battery weighs 309 lb and mounts to the wall or floor per EG4's manual; anchor wall-mounted units into structural framing and plan for lifting equipment. Follow EG4's installation manuals for clearances, torque values, and conductor sizing.

Warranty & Support

Per EG4, the FlexBOSS21 carries a 10-year warranty and each WallMount battery is covered for 10 years or 10,000 cycles, whichever comes first. Register your equipment with EG4 after purchase and keep your OffGrid Horizon invoice — as an authorized dealer, our records document your coverage.

Shipping

Kits ship by LTL freight on pallets within the United States, curbside with a liftgate. Count every piece against the packing list and inspect for damage before signing the delivery receipt — note any issues with the driver to preserve your freight claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many batteries are included?

The base configuration includes one 16 kWh battery. Select the 2-battery (32 kWh) or 3-battery (48 kWh) option from the product configuration menu before checkout.

FlexBOSS21 or FlexBOSS18?

Per EG4, the 21 offers more PV input (21 kW vs 18 kW), more strings (5 vs 4), and more output (16 kW with solar, 12 kW battery-only, vs 13 kW and 10 kW). Choose the 21 for larger homes, heavy 240V loads, or bigger arrays; the FlexBOSS18 kit covers moderate loads with the same batteries.

How much power do I get from batteries at night or in an outage?

Per EG4, 12 kW continuous from battery alone. One battery sustains about 10.2 kW of discharge (200A), so plan on two or more batteries to use the inverter's full battery-mode output.

Can I add batteries later?

Yes — per EG4 the WallMount 314Ah parallels up to 32 units, and Auto-ID addressing configures new batteries automatically.

Are solar panels included?

No. Panels, racking, and array wiring are sized to your site and sold separately. The kit operates as grid-charged battery backup without any solar attached.

Do I need the GridBoss?

Not for a basic partial-home backup or off-grid build. Per EG4, adding GridBoss brings AC coupling, smart load control, and generator integration for whole-home microgrid setups.
