[RE-wrenches] Power One Microinverters

[August Goers]

Hi Bruce,



I haven't received much feedback from the group yet on the Power One
Microinverters. Marco was in-progress on a job with them and was going to
get back to me off list after completion.



I'm weary about the wireless communication because wireless always seems to
break down at one point or another over the long haul. However, I should
reiterate that I have no experience with this product yet.



Best, August

Hi August.  I'm curious about these inverters as well.  Have you learned
anything outside of the Wrenches list about their track record?

Take care.

Hi Wrenches -



Has anyone tried out the new Power One microinverters?

Seems like a similar concept to Enphase M215 as far as the trunk cabling
goes. However, their monitoring device called "Aurora CDD" communicates
wirelessly with the microinverters compared to power line communications
with Enphase. They also seem to be at a higher price point compared to
Enphase although they are higher wattage at 250 and 300 Watts.



Best,



August
