Title: Houston, TX (Midtown)
Post by: mrbrooker on May 03, 2017, 02:07:00 AM
I have an off-grid system installed on my town home in downtown Houston.   It has a 3600 Watt PV array, 48V 2480 amp-hr battery bank, MidNite 200 Classic MPPT charge controller, and an AIMS 2000 Watt inverter charger.  My intent with this system is to reduce my overall electric bill and more importantly have essential power available in case of loss of grid power from events such as hurricanes (I lost grid power for 3 days following hurricane Ike in September of 2008).

Have you been happy so far with your AIMS inverter/charger?  I'm planning to upgrade from 24 to 48 volts, and will need a new unit.  The AIMS specs look great, as is the price...but I'm somewhat skeptical about the quality compared to, say, an Outback.
THanks.
