From what I understand, anything up to 6kw is available IF you panels are putting out at least that much. Solarcity is still alive, but it's now owned by Tesla. WHen they got bought out they came out with a new inverter, that I beleive is designed to work with the PowerWalls. They aren't

What an interesting unit! It looks from the specs that the output is 240VAC, is there a 120V split phase output option? -Otmar, on mobile device. > On Oct 17, 2021, at 9:15 AM, Robert Bruninga via EV wrote: > > Yes! > Fantastic! Is the full 6 kW availalbe in full sun (and no battery) > or

Yes! Fantastic! Is the full 6 kW availalbe in full sun (and no battery) or just 15 amp "secure power" outlet like on the SUnnyboy? Amd $400 is a GREAT deal compared to the thousand+ for the sunny boy. Is this a reproducible sustainable source of inverters like this. or are these closeouts? is

You mean like a Solarcity H6 (AKA Delta H6)? When Tesla bought out Solarcity they dropped this inverter, someone has been clearing them out on Ebay for $400 or so. It was originally designed to wrok with something like a Powerwall for backup power, but will work without it and people have
