William,
Unless you're into various forms of self-abuse, I don't understand
why you'd spend time on a system from a customer who "bought some
modules and M190 inverters from an E-bay vendor". The customer
won't appreciate what you offer.

Colleagues:
I had occasion today to use the Enphase on-line compatibility
calculator. My client bought some modules and M190 inverters from
an E-bay vendor. The exact module model number was not listed on
the compatibility list so I was recommended by Enphase to use the
calculator.
The result showed the module was compatible only with the M215
inverter. Further research revealed that the calculator will
never indicate compatibility with M190s even if your module is
indeed compatible. The reason I was given for this is that since
Enphase no longer makes M190s the calculator would not recommend
them.
This is silly since we still encounter M190s in the field. Be
aware of this situation if you ever need to use the calculator. I
informed the customer support person of this concern and
recommended that this tool be corrected to show all
compatibilities. I don't know if they will change this, but I
hope so.
By the way does anyone know if the Sharp NU-US235F9 BX modules
will work with the Enphase M190? It appears so, but I don't want
to recommend something that does not work.
Thanks,
William
