EZ1 VOICES: Portable Plug-In Solar on Wheels

After installing an APsystems EZ1-LV plug-in solar system, this customer found the setup process straightforward and appreciated the flexibility it provided for a small-scale solar installation.

The system consists of two solar panels connected directly to the EZ1 microinverter, which converts DC power from the panels into usable AC power for the home through a standard household outlet. The customer mounted the panels on wheeled stands, allowing them to be easily repositioned around the yard throughout the day to capture the best available sunlight. Longer DC extension cables provide additional flexibility, making it easy to move the array while keeping the EZ1 connected and operating.

One feature that stood out was the EZ1’s built-in monitoring platform. After connecting the microinverter to the home’s Wi-Fi network, the customer was able to track real-time production, historical energy generation, and detailed system performance data directly through the APsystems app.

The customer also highlighted the safety benefits of the EZ1, noting its certified anti-islanding protection that automatically stops power production during a utility outage.

Unlike traditional fixed solar installations, the wheeled panel setup allows the customer to follow seasonal sun angles and optimize production by moving the array to the sunniest locations around the property.

“The app was very easy to connect to my Wi-Fi and provides plenty of information about power production, daily output, and historical performance. It’s a very good system and I’m very happy with it.”

This installation demonstrates how the APsystems EZ1 makes plug-in solar accessible for homeowners looking for a simple, flexible way to begin generating their own solar energy while maintaining visibility into system performance through easy-to-use monitoring tools.
