[RE-wrenches] 120 volt grid tie inverter

Darryl,

His present power system is 120 volt DC in his entire place, so he is
looking for an inverter that will accept that and 

grid tie. 

>From my understanding the only 120 volt AC he has is to run the saw mill and
he wants to reduce that with the solar that he has, seems that his battery
bank is floating much of the time.

 

Except that old habits die hard I could use a lesson in reducing consumption
from this fellow!

 

Thanks,

Bob

Again the definition of 120 volt DC? is this for a 120 volt PV String?
 
Excel Tec makes a 120 V AC out from small PV array,  It is ment to operate
on a 15 amp circuit I think. They also make a 120 volt DC input but I am not
sure if that is Grid Tie 1741
