Solar Inverter Reviews

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’….

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….

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….

Mil Solar Inverter Review MIL-Solar inverters are designed and manufactured in Australia. MIL-Systems, which is the company behind the inverters has been around since 1985. Previously, they specialized in designing and manufacturing power equipment for the military. These inverters are specifically designed to be resilient in the harsh Australian weather. For instance, the inverters are filled with front-facing cooling fins, which help to increase airflow. According to the manufacturers, the feature enables the inverters to generate full power across a wide range of temperatures. Additionally, the design feature makes it easy to clean nests built insects and other debris that could reduce performance. The Specs The MIL-Solar inverters have a capacity of 5kW. However, if you live in an area where the Distributed Network service Provider insists on inverters with a capacity below 5kW, Mil-Systems power it down to 4.95kW. In the future, the company plans to produce a 6kW….
