From I could find, it looks like a 48V input grid tie inverter. Is that about right?

It's a cold and dreary day, so poking around on eBay and saw one listed. They didn't provide too much info. Google searches produced some info, but it's scant at most

Just wondering...

Whoa! That's to the point...

what little reading I've been doing about it, it appears that there are a lot of ducks one has to keep in a row to get it to work. Namely, having a large 48 pv array 20 feet from the inverter.
