This is in response to someone who wanted to know my contractor.
Vector Builders.
Admin Note, its fine to mention your installer but please no numbers or links, and I did a search for these guys on www.solarreviews.com and they are not listed, cheers. -
Hi araghava,
can you PM me the name of your installer? Couple of my friends are asking for installers. Since I did it DIY, I thought of asking Forum members. -
I wish this website had enough intelligence to flag any question about SMA vs Solaredge and put a big red flashing X on the screen that says:
"USE THE SEARCH FEATURE AND READ ALL ABOUT IT. THIS TOPIC HAS BEEN COVERED A HUNDRED TIMES!!"
Please don't make us all nauseous by dredging this topic up again. This should be a rule of the forum.Leave a comment:

Opinions from serious and ethical vendors/installers on this forum seem to be a bit divergent as to which might be "better". My engineering judgment generally suggests I'd keep systems as simple as possible and electronics in user controlled environments (for example, indoors/garage) as much as possible/practical, which usually means not on a roof and string inverters. But, I'd defer to those installers/vendors and their greater experience and knowledge in the area of the possible differences in the fit for purposeness of either product.Leave a comment:

SMA is good stuff, but most decent string inverters run pretty close in efficiency one to another, probably within 1 % or so.Leave a comment:

In New Jersey (NJ)
9.3 KW system at $3.01/W installed before rebates this week
LG300N1K-G4(Neon 2 all black panles for better aesthetics look) with 25 year warranty
Enphase sw280 microinverters with 25 year warranty
Enphase Envoy S Monitoring system
10 year Labor warranty from local NJ installer
total cost about 28k
I could have gone cheaper if I had picked solaredge panels and Optimizers instead of microinverters but I am glad to have even better system installed at a reasonable price. Let's hope SREC prices in NJ stay high.
