    Sorry about the recent problem with support.<br>
    MidNite recently got a new (supposedly better of course) IT and
    phone system.  That system still has some glitches<br>
    which is part of the phone support but should work OK during the day
    or maybe all the time now ?<br>
    <br>
    Remember that  you can always email  <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:support@midnitesolar.com">support@midnitesolar.com</a><br>
    <br>
    support@mid<b>NIGHT</b>solar.com should work in most cases but not
    always.  Good thing would be to spell NIGHT  as  <b>NITE </b>instead<br>
    if you can to make sure the email goes to where it is supposed to
    go.<br>
    <br>
    As for the AIO,  yes it is made in China.  You are not going to find
    a Made in USA AIO for any reasonable price.  <br>
    China is getting very good at this stuff. Too good.  Look at
    Sol-Ark.  They have done very well by partnering with Deye.<br>
    Looking like the AIO ONE from MidNite is less expensive and just as
    reliable.<br>
    <br>
    The AIO is made by an experienced manufacturer in China but is new
    to the US market, as are a lot of Chinese AIO inverter<br>
    manufacturers.  But even this company needed help with the
    implementation of some battery inter-workings (closed loop)<br>
    and 120/240 VAC and stacking.  Also other software to be able to be
    used here.<br>
    <br>
    I know we all love SMA but we wish they would have catered more to
    the US on the Sunny Island by making a 120/240 version<br>
    instead of having to use big and expensive auto-formers.<br>
    <br>
    MidNite would like to concentrate on products that are able to be
    made in Arlington Washington like the Rosie and Little Rosie.<br>
    But some things are best left to the Chinese for manufacture.  AIO
    is most likely the best thing that they do in our industry but<br>
    not without some help along the way.  It's amazing how fast they
    respond to requests and changes for MidNite.<br>
    <br>
    P.S.  We are all getting older.  Don't be afraid to see your Dr.
    once in a while to help us get even older !<br>
