Yeah wondering how much value that UL paper has to the insurance company if one of these not quite ready for prime time inverters bursts into flames.... I really was ready to send the 3k over for one of these but I think a sit and wait, watch, and learn policy is best at this point... Im cool...

Looks like there's alot of problems with this inverter either in this batch or perhaps ingrained in the design... I was going to buy one this week but I believe watching this thread and seeing how the unit matures or doesntcforca month or so is appropriate... For a dube like me who wants to...

I'm getting the feeling these arent ready for prime time yet seems alot of little problems????

I thought I saw a post on last page said 39 watts???

Yeah i read through this and agree

Same here im getting ready to pull trigger

Ha I did this for my wife when I wired the generator into the panel I literally labeled the breakers for her to throw in order and put a step by step list for her next to the panel...

Just looked at my electric bill in middle of Aug with AC freezers etc I used 1100 KWH over 30 days... rest of year its under 1000

I actually have a 6.5kw generator wired into the panel and manually manage my loads as you suggested when its in use I shut off the 101 gallon hot water heater and that takes the major load off the system if I need hot water kill 2 of the freezer breakers... Im new to solar but basic...

My meter and load center both have separate 200amp breakers... Im not sure if I need the bypass my meter does have a disconnect so that is an option simply shut off the meter breaker... I use under 6kw 85 to 90 percent of the time I do peak to 8KWish occasionally if alot of loads are 9n at...

Then why not a 50 amp breaker going into the inverter

Im a lefty and write horribly so I apologize for the chicken scratch

I've been thinking about options if I decided to go with this converter for a while and I'm trying to avoid an independent disconnect...I.e. pulling my panel apart putting in switched etc...I have a ton of room in my existing main panel which is 200 am. Why couldn't I add a 2 Pole Circuit...

Are you kidding me

Are you going to use these as pass through or to simply feed your home grid??? If you have two of them and need a battery anyway wouldn't it be easier and maybe more economical without needing a bunch of disconnects etc to simply use the battery to enable grid down back up vs using pass through...
