I am working with a local solar installer to put in whole home solar backup. I'm leaning towards 18kpv with a power pro battery. My roof should have room to mount 30 400w panels, so now I'm left with picking the right panels.
My installer quoted REC N peak 3 at 240 a panel which is ok for REC, but I've found a lot more cost effective deals. For example, SS has CS panels for 156 each or Talesun for 108 each. Also, Inxeption has Msolar parks for roughly a 100 per panel.
Do I go with a more well known brand like CS or an off brand like Msolar that supposedly is domestic and has a 25/25 year warranty? Also, on that note, does anyone know if the CS panel is 25/25 at SS? There is an asterisk that says only certain regions but doesn't give further details. I'm in WI, but I have no idea if that qualifies as one of the certain regions.
Lastly, for aesthetics, the SO requires all black panels.
Any help is appreciated.
