I had one of the first generation 130-watt Micro-Sine units on my office for
about 10 months when they first came out. With a pair of Siemens SP75
modules on, it cranked a steady 80 to 100 watts of AC output. I wasn't
terribly impressed, (this is all that MPPT can deliver?) and their DOS-based
monitoring program positively sucks! On the other hand, four years later
it's still running, on my home now.  Connected to a Solec 100w/24v module it
runs along at 50-60 watts. Best I've ever seen is 83 watts, but I suspect
this is as much the Solec module's fault as the inverter's, since power goes
up considerably under cold conditions.

Best regards,
Doug Pratt
