We have a small offgrid system with an Outback GFX1424 1.4 kW inverter and FM80-150VDC charge controller. There were some issues early on with incompatible LED dimmer switches that apparently fried the Outback inverter board, so that was replaced under warranty. We’ve only had the system in for ~6 months so I can’t talk about long term reliability. </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"><img width="246" height="369" id="Picture_x0020_0" src="cid:image003.jpg@01D1E8B3.44D19170" alt="Luminalt offgrid (Small).JPG"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">Cheers,</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">August</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">-----Original Message-----<br>From: RE-wrenches [mailto:<a href="mailto:re-wrenches-bounces@lists.re-wrenches.org">re-wrenches-bounces@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>] On Behalf Of frenergy<br>Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2016 9:22 AM<br>To: RE-wrenches<br>Subject: [RE-wrenches] Off grid</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText">Off-gridders,</p><p class="MsoPlainText"> </p><p class="MsoPlainText"> I've got a customer that wants to run a few very small loads (less than 200 watts) but also a 20 year old washing machine (vertical axis).
