[RE-wrenches] Sparq Micro-Inverters

[Benn Kilburn - DayStar Renewable Energy]

Hey Wrenches,
Do any of you have any experience with Sparq micro-inverters?  SPARQ Systems
Inc. <http://www.sparqsys.com/>
Any feedback?

I have installed one system so far using them, but the (new construction)
home will not have internet access for several months, so remote monitoring
is not possible yet. I know of at least one other in the area.
They are very much like the M190 in appearance and interconnection method
(daisy-chain) but I'm told that the next generation will likely be much
smaller in size.

The technology they are using is resonant conversion (I hope I got that
right), which as I understand makes the units themselves more "software"
rather than "hardware" This also eliminates some of the failure prone
components of a typical inverter, so they are confidant coming out of the
gate with a 25yr warranty.  Pretty bold for a newer company/product, but
they are pretty confidant with their technology and everyone has to start
somewhereŠ
