<div dir="auto">Hi August,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">That is fascinating that you got told different info. I specifically asked the person I talked to (I did not write down her name though) about the -C and -D microinverters. She said that they had figured out a way to monitor them with their equipment, but they needed some kind of reprogramming. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Being that you got told conflicting information, I am going to call them back next week and see if I cannot get a definitive answer. I'll update you all here afterwards.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Cheers,</div><div dir="auto">Dave</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Sep 27, 2024, 7:04 PM August Goers via RE-wrenches <<a href="mailto:re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org">re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Dave - <div><br></div><div>The sales rep, Parker, I spoke with at Enphase said that they don't have a way of monitoring the SunPower Type C and D micros since those were manufactured by SolarBridge.

They will be providing warranty support at least for Sunpower's microinverters. They do not know how long Sunpower's monitoring will continue to work. But they have figured out a way to use their Gateway to monitor Sunpower's microinverters, even the older -C and -D micros. Currently the customer will need to pay a flat fee of $699 and Enphase will send them the equipment and then schedule one of their techs to come install it. It sounds like it involves some reprogramming of the equipment on site.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Then once they can monitor the system, they can provide warranty support.
