Very thorough review. Thanks for the content.
Nice review. I like that it is stackable, and that you can pass AC through it when it loses battery and solar power.
Perfect size for an RV or small cabin, considering the charge rate 24kw of battery and 9 x 550-watt panels 430 to 460 v. I just checked my solar dealer 6200usd for panels(4950w) and (24kw) batteries, 200 max for wires. Under 8000usd (tax and shipping) for a decent amount of power. These all-in-one inverters have less wires than a stereo to connect. Mine has 17 with 4 pv inputs.
Nice job on this video.
This is compatible with Solar Assistant, I used it with it. Highly recommend you toss out the dongle that comes with it and just go with SA, it's SO much better of an experience and you can control most of the configuration within SA too.
Never heard of solar assistant before, would I have to order a sa specific dongle?
Thanks for the discount code! It stacks with the current sale price.
@5:01 Would it be louder than my stack of 1u and 2u rack servers?
as an electrician, i have no issue with wanting to use the ground to the AC in, as long as they have continuity, i would probably do the same thing myself anyway
Thanks for doing another video, because I done forget the name if this channel. I gotta try to remember this time.
A lot easier to find the channel if you subscribe

Nice unit but what is an affordable 48v battery that can be used with it.
Hmmm, could I EASILY wire in a 120AC surge strip AND a 30 amp plug for my RV? And would it require big panels due to that voltage? I think I'd only need about 1200-1600 watts coming in. Maybe this could take care of my stationary RV and my little shop!
Can it be used as an UPS??
So, can you use this as a "booster" with pass-through AC? Like if your AC in is only 10 amps, but you have a 20 amp load, can it pull the rest from the battery (assuming no solar)?
In short, yes. I limit my intake from grid to 10A (so it doesn't blow anything on an existing circuit) and this is what would happen at night when solar is off.
This will feed solar power back to grid, in case battery is charged and house usage is much less than solar generated power ?
No, you need what is called a hybrid inverter for that.
This unit has issues. Communication being no.1 hz being no.2
Such a cutie.
No a good inverter , my burned out in less than a year , I will put a video of what happened and why not to buy from that brand, I'm hoping they are more helpful on the refund but they are giving me a lot of problems to get it on a return from signature solar , will see but stay away from this junk.
There will be a small percentage of duds in any product. This one has a ton of users (I don't know why the video says it's relatively new, it's been out well over a year) and very few complaints.
Still.....if it is a good product with few fails they should make it easy to return. Thanks for the tip.
Lightweight, high frequency, transformerless inverters are never a good buy, even at $700. The have shorter life expectancies and much poorer surge capacities than low frequency, transformer based inverters. And because high frequency inverters have no transformer and thus no galvanic isolation between their DC boost stage and their AC output, during a catastrophic failure of their H-Bridge circuit where a MOSFET or IGBT shorts to ground, these inverters can pass high amperage DC current to your AC appliances and damage them.
You wouldn't want to run your house on it, but it's a good buy for emergency backup of your PC and fridge if you live in an area prone to power failures.
Been running 2 for the whole house, works great.
@@brock2k1 Working great for the whole house.
I have about 30% of my home's "load" on this unit. Typically in the 200-900w range. Works awesome. Guess time will tell.
