Had Radian failures and typical issues contacting Outback tech support in a reasonable amount of time. (ended up replacing boards on site, just like FX inverters, which is nice rather than sending the unit in)
Xantrex XW is massively improved after a rocky past, interconnect box is very spacious and easy to work in, and perhaps most important – tech support to assist with programming etc. has proved to be top notch and readily available when needed. All of this is counter to what our experience was historically with Xantrex but perhaps the Schneider purchase has made a positive impact?

Kirk, I agree with Peter. I have installed several Radians with good luck. I installed one SI and it worked ok but was more expensive and very time consuming to install. Did one XW and would never do it again. Never has worked right.

Hello,
Can anyone recommend a good battery-based inverter for grid-intertie? I need both generator and utility inputs, 120 or 240 output. I have experience with the OB Radian series but don’t know what else is out there. Thanks.
