I have hundreds of solar installations off grid, hybrid, grid sell only. The 15k Solark in my opinion can't be beat. The 200 amp pass through was a game changer. Also, the built-in smart load diversion load controller is phenomenal for both off-grid and zero export systems. I have very remote systems at high altitude and cold climates or that smart load is keeping homes from freezing with radiant floor heating for an example. Tech support is always excellent with Solark. And I continue to replace systems with grow Watts, LV 6548s of all sizes and shapes and colors. It's just not worth compromising on the hub of the system. I monitor 100 systems on PV pro. Beauty of being able to tweak each of those systems to each customer's life style remotely has been huge. If you have any questions, I'll be happy to help.

[@Roll2Videos]

Thank you very much for reaching out and offering your help. I will watch more of the content you've created, precisely what I've been looking for. Funds are an important factor which is why I started youtube, to fund my hobby without taking away from my planned / career income. My ultimate goal is a sol-ark-powered system. You may see other units on my channel to promote affiliate marketing to gain funds for my dream setup. I'm far from achieving my goal, but I will work hard until it's a reality. Thank you so much you give us all valuable information. Have a great sunny day.

I would definitely recommend a low frequency inverter for your usage. A big transformer will be the best route for your tools.

[@Roll2Videos]

I agree 👍

[@pedronieves9749]

I was in your same position, and I settled down on a yiyen 10kw low frequency inverter w/o mppt. Sigineer also sells them under their name brand. I got it like 3 years ago for $1,300. The inverter is not as smart, it's only a toggle switch config so no app or wifi console. The big transformer Growatts have a noise issue w their fans. The only downside is that I had to buy Victron MPPTs. So, I monitor the battery voltage and state of charge w the Victron App. In your position I would do 1) a dumb but robust inverter 10kw, 48v + Victron Mppts 2) 2 x 6000EX-48HV with the advantage that you will have 4 mppt trackers in this configuration but there is extra cost in the wiring and breaker box for the paralleling of the inverters.

Basically, I didn’t know anything about electricity at all. So, it took a while to learn, and I wanted to make sure I didn’t do anything that could have a real bad outcome. Good thing, I started with a 24 V system, as I shocked myself a few times. Insulate those ground wires folks!

On the other hand I've saw several high frequency inverters that were no longer working and that had problems of one kind or another. I like my low frequency sungold power inverter really well.

@@Roll2Videos No but it makes great sense ... the thermostat will keep at temp and then maybe the extra ... overload into something else... lift pump for water storage. (I use 12 and 120 in the radio shack and have sureflow pump for when the 120 drops (for now). Less "waste" and using what one can. Also depending up area and weather ... maybe lighting for greenhouse using full spectrum bulbs at winter.. Heating blankets for batteries, warm soil, floors ... :-) keep up the good work like to see what you narrow in on. pat

I went to 48v 6 years ago. I like simple large transformer inverters with no software is what I like . The biggest builder of these type of inverters is YIYEN in china. I have been running there 12 kw split phase inverter for 6y now with 0 problems.

[@Roll2Videos]

Oh wow, 6 years! That's a great example of good quality. I will look them up. Thank you for the tip.

@@Roll2Videos yes they do because YIYEN builds the sigineer units for them.

I say sol-ark or Schneider electric, both are pricey but you buy once cry once, I heard Schneider has a couple odd grid tie issues but don't remember the specifics

[@Roll2Videos]

😭 lol, Thanks I will check them out

[@todamnbad]

@Roll2 Videos lots of options make it hard to choose a good fit, playing around with equipment for reviews to help a beginner or budget friendly designs is fun but for a long term design I wouldn't cut any corners

[@Roll2Videos]

@@todamnbad No, that's what I want to avoid.

I have a 8k sol-ark personally running my business with 12 employees for 2 years now and have no issues with it. Only problem is your paying double for the name. Just get the MegaRevo and save yourself a ton of money!! MegaRevo has a 12k unit coming very soon.

@@Millertechenergy 😁 Are you a MegaRevo rep 🤣 I do like their units. Thank you for commenting 👍

[@cyberprepper]

Have you considered the Bluetti AC500? It is very powerful, expandable, safe. I have Ecoflow Delta Pros with extra batteries but also use 24V EG4 batteries to charge them up when sun is not available. It also has the Smart Home Panel which is nice!

[@Roll2Videos]

Yes I have, They are awesome, I would like a system the can coupled with different battery manufacturers and expanded they way I want. I just feel if I went with them I'd be locked in with there products. Also the grid tie aspect comes into play with what I want. Very good suggestion 👍
