[RE-wrenches] Working with SBS 6.0 and LG Chem batteries

I haven't used that combo, but I spent quite a bit of time researching, 
and SMA only warrants their equipment when used with batteries from 
their 'recommended' list.  LG Chem is not on the list, BYD is.  
Personally I would be picking an inverter that has better tech support 
(SMA fired all their off grid team) and is better suited for the 
design.  The only reason I could think to use the Sunny Island would be 
if it was a 208, 3 phase setup.
