Hi, Wrenchies~ Compliance with California's Rule 21 is at least one reason why Enphase retooled their product line this year. The now discontinued M215 & M250 micro inverters are showing up on closeout so...are they worth considering for folks outside California?
Or: do the other benefits of the new IQ architecture make it worth jumping across & not looking back? I understand the IQ system is more forgiving on communications & it works with 72 cell super jumbos, bigger wattage, simpler trunk cabling, etc. My project opportunity is one circuit residential, 14 to 16 sixty cell jumbos (in three rows) & we can power the Envoy from a dedicated circuit. Maybe it comes down to >> Will the IQ inverters outlast the M215/M250 on the roof? The latter have given me no problems so I'm not knocking these recent M models, but 25 years is a long time from now. Thanks in advance; the Wrench List is the Bomb~ Mick Abraham, Proprietor www.abrahamsolar.com Landline: 970-731-4675 Cell phone or for text messaging: 970-946-6584
