[TowerTalk] Solar Power

[David Robbins]

Are you converting for 24/7 solar only use or just putting in solar to help
the grid and reduce your bill?  For the latter it is better to go with
microinverters, they don't have the high current switching to charge
batteries or a large inverter to create AC... plus no batteries with
associated maintenance and periodic replacement cost and all the
inefficiencies of DC to Chemical energy to AC conversions.

I'm considering converting to solar power for my home. A major concern from
the RF point of view is the potential problem of noise from the large scale
inverter used to convert the DC from the panels to AC for the house and to
be fed back on the grid. The potential installation would use a Solar Edge
SE7600A-US inverter, which is certified FCC part
15 class B.

Does anyone out there have any experience with this?
