[RE-wrenches] Fortress Avalon

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

Hey Darryl,

I got involved with the Schneider Home all in one (same thing as 
Fortress Avalon) Before that I was involved with another Schneider HV 
all in one long before Solark. Omnia failed to get to market. I get the 
hee bee jeebies with that kind of voltage offgrid. The numerous various 
failures of the LG hi voltage batteries.

There is no way to replace the battery without waiting for Fortress to 
help. With 48v, I can go to Costco or Walmart and build a temporary 48v 
bank in 3 hours. Pretty simple requirement that I have. Especially in 
this world!
