At this time I don't think there is one out there that has the similar ease, efficiency, or overall price to performance.
I own the 12k and did not opt for the EMP and I am not worried about the perceived security risks with remote monitoring servers located in China. If you were to sniff your own internet connection or setup a block on unauthorized tracking cookies,
So do you think their extra "EMP hardened" ad-on feature is fluff to capture extra $$ or is legit? It does make you wonder if this company has been deceptive about being "American Made" will they cut corners elsewhere? I don't need nearly the 12k output either but it seems that is the unit (the only one listed on there web page) they are pushing right now. They also make a 8 and 5k but the price difference does not seem to be proportional?
Yeah your right data capture concerns are definitely not limited to Sol-Ark. I am studying up on these issues and should probably set up more blocks, I would be interested in learning more about this, I currently use Brave browser and run Linux Mint on my desktop and looking into Lineage or eOS for my phone, but maybe this would be getting 'off topic' so another thread or PM me.
An even greater concern would be a malicious attack that could disable the inverter! Before anyone says oh that would never happen I have had first hand experience with "updating" my HP printer and having them permanently brick my printer rendering it totally useless because I used an aftermarket cartridge instead of their genuine HP $150.00 ink cartridge set. Mind you there was nothing physically wrong with the cartridge I was using and the printer was working just fine before the "update". I am NOT making this up, there was a successful class action lawsuit on HP in the public record that anyone can search. Now this was just a printer, what is to say China could not do the same to our inverters during a war, or if they simply get pissed off!?
