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.

Zendure SolarFlow 800

Zendure's strength is modular storage: begin with a 0.96kWh module and stack more later. That built-in storage is exactly what the UK plug-in rules exclude, so it can't be self-installed in Great Britain for now.
