Chris,

 

I've had one of my guys research this same question a while ago and the
conclusion was the as far as low-cost DAS systems, Fat Spaniel was the big
winner, as in under $1,000 which includes a year's worth of monitoring.

 

Cheers,

marco

 

Good Day Wrenches,

            I'm looking for suggestions for a low cost DAS system for
home/small commercial use. It just seems to be such a useful basic tool to
verify performance other than just the Kwh meter. I'd like to add this to
all of our clients quotes and projects. Looking for the basics like module
temperature and irradiance and it would be nice if it would tie into the
existing inverters DAS like an Enphase, Fronius or SMA to name a few since
they already have inverter and PV in/output information. Or is Fat Spaniel
and Helitronics my only options otherwise? Thanks for the help ahead of
time.
