Hi Joel and Todd
I have had good success with the Outback systems I
have installed.  

I am presently installing a large Outback system with
both 3 phase, UPS  and of course grid tie.  I went
head to head with other bids and I was both lowest and
could offer the most features.  The UPS was part of
the RFP and others that had to add a UPS seperatly
derived system and drove their price much higher.  

The Outbacks strong point was flexibility.  I could
offer from 4 to 40 kW just by changing the number of
MX60s and GVFXs.  I could offer heavy single phase
componet to the Three phase.  I can easily change the
size of the UPS, just by wiring and programing the
GVFXs.  The UPS is much smaller than the total system.
 

Earily in the design phase there were problems with
the system sizing and the Outback Modular system
allowed easy pricing and scaling.  Also the scaling
allowed the higher efficiency, when the solar supply
is limited the outback will scale back and only a few
FX's will partisipate.   

I am hoping to supply a wind generator later for  this
same customer, and add the wind to the solar unsing
the FX to grid tie the wind machine.
