Not All Solar Products Are Equal. Here’s Why We Only Use the Best

Will Solar Battery Prices in NSW and ACT Rise Due to Stock Shortages in 2025?

When it comes to solar energy, it is easy to assume that every panel, inverter, or battery performs the same way. They all look similar, and most claim to deliver high efficiency and long-term savings. The truth is that not all solar products are created equal. At Stag Electrical, we have seen first-hand how quality, reliability, and real-world performance can make all the difference.

Our philosophy is simple: we only install products we have tested, monitored, and truly trust.

Why Cheap Solar Can Cost More in the Long Run

Choosing the lowest-priced solar products might seem like a good deal at first, but the savings are often short-lived. Low-cost systems can underperform over time, leading to poor energy production, shorter lifespans, and unexpected maintenance costs.

Many budget systems look identical to premium ones, but the difference lies in their internal build quality, firmware reliability, and after-sales support. Once problems arise, homeowners often find that warranties are complicated or that support is hard to reach.

That is why we have a strict vetting process for every product we install.

How We Choose the Products We Trust

Before any product becomes part of our lineup, it must pass our real-world testing in Australian conditions. Our team looks beyond glossy brochures. We install, monitor, and assess how each product performs under heat, cold, humidity, and day-to-day use.

We also consider manufacturer reputation, product certification, long-term service support, and how easily it integrates with other system components. Every product we offer has earned its place through proven performance and reliability, not through marketing promises.

Why We Stopped Using Alpha ESS

Many customers ask, “Why doesn’t Stag Electrical recommend Alpha ESS?”

We did use Alpha ESS batteries in the past, particularly during the ACT Next Gen Energy Storage Scheme. During that time, we ended up replacing 25-30 inverters under warranty. 

It is important to say that Alpha ESS is not a bad product. The company has made improvements to their newer models, and their technology continues to evolve. We simply decided to focus on systems that aligned more closely with our service standards and the level of reliability we promise our customers.

We constantly review new products, and if Alpha ESS continues to improve in areas such as compatibility, installer support, and customer service, we would be open to reassessing them in the future.

Our decision is based on one thing only: we want every system we install to perform at its best for years to come.

Why Using the Best Products Saves You More

Quality products do more than just perform better. They last longer, maintain higher efficiency, and require fewer service calls. Over the lifetime of your solar system, the return on investment from premium products easily outweighs the short-term savings from cheaper alternatives.

When you combine high-performing products with our professional installation, you get peace of mind, better energy production, and long-term savings.
