Home backup power
Huawei Power-M
All-in-one inverter and battery, proven in South African homes
The Huawei Power-M is the all-in-one backup system EcoHub has supplied to South African homes for years: a 5 kW hybrid inverter and lithium battery modules in a single clean cabinet, with the option to add solar panels now or later.
“I have run a Power-M at my own home since September 2022. Three batteries and eight panels run everything except the geyser, including the pump on a 12 m lap pool. It is the system I recommend because it is the system I live with.” — Dylan, EcoHub
Choose your capacity
5 kWh, 10 kWh or 15 kWh — and up
Every Power-M uses the same 5 kW hybrid inverter and stacks 5 kWh battery modules in the cabinet. With one battery the system delivers up to 2.5 kW; with two or three it delivers the full 5 kW. The 10 kWh and 15 kWh systems are the ones most homes choose; the 20 kWh and 30 kWh options are two Power-M systems in parallel, for 10 kW of output. We ship the floor-mount base as standard at no extra cost.

Why the Power-M
One cabinet, no clutter
All-in-one cabinet
Inverter and batteries in one enclosure. No wall of separate boxes and cabling — it looks like an appliance, not a plant room.
Expandable
Add 5 kWh battery modules inside the same cabinet as your needs grow, and add solar panels whenever you are ready.
Solar-ready hybrid
A true hybrid inverter: run from solar by day, store the surplus, and fall back to the grid only when you need to.
About Huawei Power-M
We started selling Huawei Power-M in 2022, and it quickly became one of our best-selling home backup systems. Our director has run a Power-M at home since then, so the advice you get from us comes from daily use, not just the spec sheet.
How the system works
Each Power-M is a 5 kW hybrid inverter with a built-in solar charge controller, sitting on top of 5 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery modules. Everything stacks into one tower only 16 cm deep, floor-standing or wall-mounted. With one battery it delivers 2.5 kW; a second battery unlocks the full 5 kW, and a third takes the tower to 15 kWh. Each power module takes up to 5.5 kWp of solar panels, so you can start with backup only and add solar later.
Choosing a size
- Power-M 5kWh: lights, Wi-Fi, TVs, the fridge and security, at up to 2.5 kW.
- Power-M 10kWh: the full 5 kW output for most homes.
- Power-M 15kWh: carries a family home through long outages.
- Power-M 10kW / 20kWh and 10kW / 30kWh: two towers in parallel for larger homes, small offices and practices.
Already have a Power-M? Add a 5 kWh battery module to extend your backup time or unlock full output.
Warranty and installation
Every system is the 220–240 V South African model with Huawei’s local 10-year warranty, delivered nationwide. Installation is by your own installer or a Huawei-trained installer from our network, covering all major cities and most areas of South Africa.
Need three-phase or more power?
Power-M is a single-phase system. For three-phase homes or larger systems, have a look at our EcoFlow PowerOcean range.
Good to know
Power-M questions, answered
A typical family home: lights, wifi, TVs, computers, fridge and freezer, a microwave and small kitchen appliances. Heavy heating loads like a geyser or stove are usually kept off the backup circuit.
Not on a single 5 kW Power-M — a geyser element is a heavy load, and for most homes we keep it off the backup circuit. If you want the geyser covered, two Power-M systems installed in parallel run it comfortably, and the EcoFlow OCEAN 2 Plus, with an 8 to 12 kW inverter, handles a geyser comfortably. Ask us when you enquire and we will size it for your home.
Yes. The Power-M is a hybrid system, so panels can be added at installation or any time afterwards.
Yes. Extra 5 kWh modules fit inside the same cabinet, up to the cabinet’s capacity.
Installation is quoted separately by a qualified installer, as it depends on your distribution board and site. We can recommend installers in the main centres.
The Power-M carries Huawei’s South African warranty. EcoHub handles the claim process for you.
Courier delivery is free on orders over R1 000 up to 40 kg. Power-M systems are heavier, so they carry a weight-based delivery charge from R495, shown at checkout before you pay.
