What to check before you buy Confirm the price is for a hybrid with built-in MPPT, not a basic inverter.
Check battery voltage matches your bank (48V for most 5kVA systems).
Ask for the warranty in writing and who handles repairs locally.
Check MPPT voltage range against your panel string design before buying.
