What we found

From the seller's published specs and the sources listed on this page. We haven't tested this kit ourselves.

In its favor

  • 1,050 W AC fits within SB 868's 1,200 W per-home limit, leaving 150 W for other plug-in devices.
  • $2.90 per watt of AC output at the price we checked.
  • Seller-stated warranty: panels 12 years, inverter 10 years.

Things to know

  • No battery: power not used at the time it's made goes to the grid for $0.
  • Certification of the complete kit is not verified.
  • Outage shut-off (anti-islanding) is not verified.

Who a kit this size suits: Homes with high daytime use. It uses most of the per-home limit, leaving little room for another plug-in device.
