For roughly the same price I can get 2x victron multiplus ii 48/5000 120v ,an ac coupled pv inverter, a grid meter, and a cerbo gx
Or
An eg4 18kpv, which already has a grid meter and DC coupled mppts, and solar assistant.
The victrons will output about 8-10kw per mfg spec, and the eg4 will do 12kw.
Solark is not a consideration because I'm team #nevereversolark
The use case is that the system is always grid connected, and the inverter supports main panel loads from pv or battery, up to maximum output, with the grid supplying the rest, simultaneously.
Any excess pv will be sold to the grid and I would like the ability in the future to sell from battery to grid if incentives are offered.
Victron advantages:
So, if you were the one choosing , which would you choose and why?

Victron advantages:
- Low frequency inverter
- Low idle consumption(about 32w in total)
- Tier 1 class
- Venus os and vrm
- Integrates with smart shunt for soc instead of using questionable bms soc
- Programmable
- Everything in one box
- Supports selling from battery to grid already
- Works with solar assistant
- Ul listed
- Would take up less space in the solar shed
- 10 year warranty
So, if you were the one choosing , which would you choose and why?
