Fronius noisy fan on solar inverter

Are Fronius Solar Inverters noisy?

Are Fronius solar inverters noisy? Yes. In comparison to the competition, yes they are. Fronius solar inverters are sometimes so noisy that we have even had neighbours call us up and pay to replace the offending solar inverter on their neighbour’s property. No joke! While we still believe Fronius solar inverters are the best inverters on the market, people really do need to understand that Fronius make quite a noisy inverter also. Below is the video of the noise that the Fronius solar inverters make.   This is an 8.2 kW Primo solar inverter. It usually makes this noise in the peak of the summer day. We do believe that the 5 kW solar inverters are a lot quieter than the 8 kW variants, however they have been known for making a sound too. If a solar inverter is installed on a wall that backs onto either an office, shiftworkers’….

We installed Australia’s first Growatt 10kw Single Phase inverter!

QLD Solar & Lighting has been trusted by Growatt to take delivery of the first Growatt 10kw single-phase inverter On Friday the 12th of August 2021 we successfully installed Australia’s first 10kw Single-phase 3MPPT inverter made by Chinese solar heavyweight’s Growatt.   3MPPT 10kw Single-Phase inverter What is so exciting about this inverter is the fact that it has 3 MPPT, meaning we can use 3 areas of the roof. In actual fact, because of the 3rd MPPT input being capable of 27Amps input current, we can install the solar panels as “parallel input”. This means that we can split them over East and West for example, while having MPPT 1 on the North roof, and MPPT 2 on the South – What an absolute monster of an inverter! We have been waiting for this day for nearly 2 years, ever since we saw the Growatt 10kw Single-phase inverter in….

Delta Solar inverter Review – New Release for 2020

Who is Delta? In my research, one particular manufacturer has stood the test of time, Delta. Not the airline or Australian songstress but rather the largest switchable power supply manufacturer in the world. Have you heard of them? No? That is okay, there is possibly a good reason for that. Delta is traditionally what you call an OEM. Original Equipment Manufacturer. That is, if you were a large manufacturer that needed DC fans, DC to DC converters, Chargers for your laptop or LED headlights for vehicles you manufacture you often go to an OEM. They build their product to suit your needs. That is what Delta, a publicly listed company traditionally did, until the early 2000’s when they expanded to produce their own branded products. This includes EV Chargers, Solar inverters, Industrial automation, robotics, and ventilation. Many common manufacturers use OEM’s to supply their builds and you may be surprised….

Sunteams Inverter

Do you own a KLNE Sunteams inverter? Has it stopped working? Has your KLNE Sunteams inverter become faulty? These KLNE sunteams inverters have been known to be amongst the worst inverters ever installed on solar systems in Brisbane and around Australia. At Queensland solar and lighting we have been getting many phone calls and emails from customers who have a broken Sunteams inverter sitting on their wall, and no longer powering their solar panels. The worst thing is, these solar panel customers call us warning the contact information for KLNE. We cannot help these customers as KLNE is no longer around. They flooded the market with these inverters back 2010 2011. They had many solar power systems in Brisbane and Gold Coast hooked up with their Sunteams inverters, but have failed to show up when their customers need them most, in the event of a KLNE Sunteams inverter warranty claim!….
