For posterity, I decided against both inverters I was originally looking at and bought the Sol-Ark 12k. The deciding factor was its limit to house feature. I was also considering the Schneider XW pro 6848 but Sol-Ark seems to do exact what I was looking for and was easier to install and configure.

I am looking at building a similar system: grid tie with battery backup or off grid with grid support, not sure which yet. One thing I haven't been able to find an answer on is what happens if your load exceeds the maximum output of 3kW for this inverter for example? Are you completely limited...

I appreciate all the input and have learned a lot more. I guess I have one more beginner question which I thought I knew but am confused on now. With any inverter with grid input, you are never going to be able to use more power than the inverter is rated for even if using grid power? Are there...

My thoughts exactly when I learned that. I believe it is not a surge, but for up to a minute or two depending on how much water is needed.

This can't be a new idea; something like a hybrid bypass/pass-through that joins the grid input and inverter output together. Maybe I am asking the wrong question. What kind of inverter (preferably an all in one unit) would I need to power a whole house, even with peak loads in excess of 27kW...

One thing that has brought up this concern is my recent learning that electric tankless water heaters require an insane amount of power, 27kW for some I have found. When there are large loads like that I would love to still use renewable energy as much as possible. I have heard that Outback and...

Hello all, I am new to solar and am looking to build my first system. My project will consist of two stages: powering a large RV and then powering a mid-large house. I am hoping to find something expandable that will work for both. I've been looking a lot into Growatt 5000 es and MPP...
