Does anyone have experience with JSD Solar out of China?

Their pricing seems way too good to believe. I'm building a new off-grid home and I'd like to accept their offer. they are preparing a submittal for me that apparently shows recent UL listings. videos appear to use aluminum wire!! hard to confirm. I want a 10Kw system. batteries. I'll add a natural gas generator as backup.

As they say, “a trust but verify”. . Out of 48 Amazon reviews, 46 are Vine reviews (i.e received free product to evaluate through am Amazon sponsored program. Only one non-Vine review.

I have been communicating with JSD. Response activity is good but still no clear outside or unsolicited reviews or information. I have asked for photos of builds and internals….still waiting. Have not found any actual in use “hack me open” reviews….

I may take the leap if I can get some answers from them…

I purchased a JSD 6KW system. We still need to install half the panels. So far everything is working beautifully! Very good quality, fit, and finish from a Chinese vendor! This is my first experience with solar, but if you have questions I can try to answer.

Here is a picture of my setup so far. I still need to hookup 7 of the panels and tie up some wiring, but we are using both inverters through the battery and it's working great

photo didn't post... I just placed concrete on the home foundation. I'm trying to get this looked at by my state inspectors. They're pretty tough here and known to reject entire systems after installation.

I don't know why I couldn't get the image to load earlier, sorry.

Like I said, this is my first solar project. But here are a couple things that really impressed me with this system;
All the components are capable of networking together, so the inverters will collaborate and monitor the BMS.
The inverters can be configured to do single ph. or 3ph., 110 or 220. This is great for us! We hooked an inverter to each leg of our 220V panel.
The fit and finish of the metal enclosures is top quality! They look great! I don't have pictures, but the roof mounting brackets for the panels is also top quality! I have a fabrication business, so I notice fit and finish of sheet-metal components .
