Anker SOLIX Balcony Solar Kit
A tidy 'everything in one box' kit, with panels, microinverter and mounts, which is what renters want. But this model isn't on the ENA plug-in register, so it can't currently be self-installed in Great Britain, and the optional battery is excluded by the rules either way.

A capable all-in-one system, with 2,000W of PV input across four trackers and a built-in battery, and one of Europe's best-sellers. But in Great Britain the built-in battery rules it out of the plug-in route: it can't be self-installed under the current rules. Worth watching if plug-in batteries are allowed after DESNZ's safety study.
