I have been selling Goodwe, seems pretty decent so far, next best thing price
wise of a good ol SMA. The only issue is they have a 5kw as their smallest but
its pretty decently priced. They have a built in tigo transmitter too.

Subject:[RE-wrenches] Non-battery string inverter options?
Friends:
Now that RSS is required on almost every installation, I am having trouble
finding a plain old, non-battery, non-MLPE string inverter. This is for a
ground mount with the inverter mounted to the rack-- the only scenario I can
imagine that does not require RSS. I don’t need or want battery capability,
now or in the future. The project does not have shading issues and the
inverter will be mounted on the array, so no version of MLPE is needed.
My usual go-to would be the legacy SMA Sunny Boy series. I can’t dine one for
sale and I am getting the impression these are no longer available.
What might you recommend for this new installation?
This brings up the question: Of all the Sunny Boy installations I have out
there, the next time one fails, what am I going to replace it with?
The new Sunny Boy Smarty-Pants series is not yet shipping, it is very expensive
and to replace a grid-connected inverter I don’t need battery capabilities.
I can’t use Solar Edge because I won’t want to unwire a complete array and add
optimizers.
I am not that taken with Sol-Ark, not only because it includes the word Arc in
its name. I don’t need the battery capabilities, AC load center or any of the
other complexities.
Any advice is appreciated.
