Editorial interest 77/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Playa del Carmen–based installer offering whole-house battery backup for homes, rentals, and coastal properties between Cancún and Tulum.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

The site frames backup power around four Riviera Maya-specific failure modes: voltage sags, hurricane-related outages, unattended homes, and rental-property complaints. Its stated mechanism is a roughly 20-millisecond battery handoff, while the equipment section names Growatt models and points to manufacturer datasheets. A calculator is presented for selecting an inverter and battery line and viewing changing price and runtime, followed by a WhatsApp-based site-visit request. The service area lists communities from Cancún to Tulum.
