SMA just came out with their Sunny Tripower line for the US. I love the Tripower line, I have been buying the European ones for one of our projects and they are the greatest. I love the Bluetooth connectivity, so much easier than running Cat5 to inverters.</p>

<div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">A new installation with a pair of 11.4-3 phase Delta inverters refused to come up and detect the grid. A call to Barry at tech support solved the problem-- press the Menu button 5 times and enter a secret code number. This was of course undocumented in their manual. No reason for this kind of opaque secrecy. </span></p>
