Compatibility summary
The myenergi Libbi (5kW Inverter + 5kWh Battery) is sold in UK / EU / AU only. Of the 53 loads available in that market, it fully runs 40 on 230 V power. 11 exceed its 5,000 W continuous rating. 2 pass on running watts but would trip on motor start-up surge.
The myenergi Libbi (5kW Inverter + 5kWh Battery) is a UK smart home storage system, installed on a dedicated circuit from the consumer unit under BS 7671 and typically paired with a time-of-use tariff to charge overnight and discharge at peak. Backup operation for specific circuits depends on the installer fitting an EPS/backup switch.
With 5,120 Wh of storage and 85% inverter efficiency, the unit delivers about 4,352 Wh of usable AC energy — enough for 3.2 days of a full-size refrigerator, or 2.9 hrs of a 1,500 W space heater. Its 5,000 W solar input refills it in roughly 1.3 hrs of strong sun.
