    The lower wire amperage, and fire safety where my major reasons for choosing such a system. DC and high power is dangerous when compared to similar power in AC systems.

    I’m also one of those people that like to see what the individual panel is doing and logging the data

      Smart, I think a lot of people though still don’t really know about this setup. I only learned about the benefits yesterday. It really pays to dig a bit deeper, especially for someone making a big decision to invest and install solar.

        I’ve had a micro inverter solar setup on my roof for a few years now.

        Super happy with it.

        Yes, the initial outlay is more expensive, but not by much. The other thing your missing is the noise. Some large inverters make noise apparently, the micro ones do not. This was one of the main draw cards that pushed me to go this way.
