HP 964 Cyan XL Cartridges

A commercial/villa-grade inverter with the smallest battery for budget buyers. 

Hardware 

• Deye 12 kW Hybrid Inverter  

• 18 × JA Solar 605W Panels (10.89 kWp) 

• 10 kWh Lithium Battery 

(Unlike PF5 & PF8 Lite, we can’t reduce below 10 kWh here — 5 kWh would be too weak for a 12-kW inverter.

Capabilities 

• Full home or business essentials 

• Daytime multi-AC capability 

• 1–2 AC units depending on load conditions 

Backup runtimes (10 kWh) 

• Essentials: ≈10.5 hours 

• Essentials + 24k AC: ≈2.5–3 hours 

Optional Battery Upgrade 

• Upgrade to 16 kWh (+145,000) 

• Upgrade to 20 kWh (+285,000) 

This becomes PowerFlex 12 Budget Plus and gains strong off-grid capability.
