I'd like to put up just 6 panels on the garage to provide 2.2kW. I just want an off-grid system to power a fridge and freezer, or occasional tools or use as an emergency backup if power goes out. My first idea was to connect them directly to the Bluetti AC300 and a couple of batteries. This was shot down by the city (Herriman Utah) because they insist on it being UL9540 compliant. I'd love to see if anyone knows which inverter/battery combinations will pass this. I don't think there are very many. I've seen SolArk 5k + Fortress eflex but that comes in at $15000. I was excited when I heard about EG4 and being UL listed since the cost of that would come it at less than $4500. Are there any systems that can beat out the SolArk and Fortress in cost? Or any battery options for less than the Fortress? Hoping for about 8-10KwH.
