Watch out for

Deye

The cheap 6kW 'OG' off-grid line is a different, lower-spec product to the SUN-SG hybrids.

Victron Energy

Needs a separate MPPT controller and GX device, so the installed cost is well above the inverter price.

We source either one at the market price

You do not need to chase Deye or Victron Energy around Alaba. Tell us what the house needs, we size it, buy the equipment on your behalf and hand over a working system. You pay the brand's market price — our margin comes from our distributor arrangements, not from a markup on your quote.
