    Just a note to say thank you SO much. I hemmed and hawed and debated and fretted about what would best suit my needs, and I finally (*finally*) pulled the trigger on this unit thanks to your reviews. I'm certainly not a luddite, but for someone who isn't exactly well acquainted with solar options or to all the nuts and bolts of cables, connection options etc., and power exchanges, your videos are a godsend. You really do a wonderful job (with zero trace of a condescending tone) to explain what types of options are important to consider and are most important for different types of needs. I rarely comment on youtube, but I made the effort here. My sincere thanks again. Very, very appreciated. This was a LOT of money to drop, but I've been thinking debating this decision for over a year, and the time had finally come to do it.

    Gosh Tom- I thought we lost you to being 'grounded'. (P.S. LOVE the house, bud!) It's good to see you & your alter-ego back. I genuinely like this unit, almost too many buttons & tech- even for me, a certified, card carrying MAN. There is enough power to mount this, hook it up centrally, wire up solar, allow it to charge when on shore power & just be happy. 2Kwh LiFePO4 battery, 2k inverter & plenty 'O ports- answers almost every question. Even @ $2k- it almost adds up to 'value packed!' It's genuinely nice to see solar generators getting to this point. Between you, Will Prowse & a few others- you've raised the bar for these manufacturers, and- WE are getting the benefits! Thank you!!!

An online UPS is essentially no different than just running stuff off of it and ensuring you had enough charging input to cover the load... with sine wave output, pretty much anything will work. Granted, you can't use full capacity.

    Ok ... Now that I saw this, I feel so much better for backing Leoch with 2048 usable Wh ...Nice unit but it has so many features that almost consume half the battery :) .. I guess that's the disadvantage of having that many things in one box ... I'm not sure what happened to the inverter but looks like the Leoch inverter is also a bit better and not heating that fast ! Nice review !

      I don't see how you can possibly say the LEOCH is better. It weighs 10lb more, has pathetic solar charging, no touch screen, no high amp DC output.. the list goes on. Granted the final version might be much better than the prototype. We'll find out in about 6 months.

      @costanalexandru5120 3 роки тому +2

      @@HOBOTECH they said solar charging will be increased to 600 W ... but yeah ... that's its only real problem from my point of view...
      10lb for 1/3 +- more capacity is not really a problem I would say ... If you do the maths you'll see Leoch is actually lighter per usable watt hour than the ETTI .
      Etti just has smaller capacity - it's like comparing a AC50 with this one .. of course the AC50 is lighter as it's much smaller in capacity .
      For me the touch screen is not a good feature ... I think once that breaks you won't be able to charge it from DC/PV and it will break as any touch screen does ... or start working really slow after like 1 year or so ... But it's indeed really beautiful.
      The invertor looks kinda so so in this one as well ... Maybe not the invertor but the way they let you use it - if you do 3 more tests at a higher wattage like you did I think you might fry it pretty easy ...
      We have to compare the prices of these as well ... they are both discounted .... and the etti is still like 80% more expensive ...
      LEOCH is a bargain for 2048 usable watts ... while etti is just an ok offer ...
      Afterall, capacity, invertor and price are the 3 most important things on these SOGENs ...
      I'd say Leoch wins all 3 of these battles (or at least 2 of them) by far !
      The outputs are ok for both - You can kinda do similar things on both of them ...
      Having more outputs is nice ... but not really a game changer . You can always use AC if the DC output is not enough in Leoch .

    The dual charging is amazing. I have the Delta 1300 and one of the things I *hate* about it is the 1200 watt charging. I have popped many friends circuits when plugging it in because you can't regulate it's input. I'd strongly prefer slightly longer charge and maybe do 800 watts or so which is still plenty fast or a friggin setting to allow you to set max input.
