[RE-wrenches] Tigo inverter experience

[Howie Michaelson]

I do not have a lot of experience with Tigo equipment, almost all using
their optimizers with CCAs and TAPs.  The 2 things I can say is after
getting my head wrapped around the setup and commissioning process (which
is not the most intuitive process), I haven't had much trouble with them
(again only have maybe 4 or 5 systems out there), and their tech support is
generally very available and very knowledgeable and helpful, impressively
so. Otherwise I can't speak much to their durability, reliability, or
functionality.
