Hello,
I have read so many threads my head hurts. I think I have about decided on using SolarEdge HD-Wave with optimizers instead of Enphase IQ6+. Here is the equipment I was looking at:
With the Enphase option I would need 177 Panels vs 146 with the LG 400W Panels to reach 58.4 KW. The downside with the SolarEdge is the shorter warranty. If I extend the warranty of all the SolarEdge HD-Wave inverters it is an extra $512 each. This makes the SolarEdge about $4,300 more than the Enphase option. I am not sure if I should even go with the extended warranty with the SolarEdge or not. If SolarEdge is reading these threads. They could loose this sale due to a shorter warranty....
So with that said I am really tempted to go SolarEdge. My zip is 72830. The equipment is being installed on a flat roof 18' off the ground. I believe that I will need 6 Inverters. I have been told by SolarEdge that I only need 4 on one call and that I need 6 on another call... Any thoughts would be great.
Also from an installation standpoint it seems that the SolarEdge may be a more challenging installation. Not sure about this though.
Any input on the subject would be great.
