“Track record”is a good point Hedges while there has been many lower and higher end product with good price ,longevity and performance I know some has had many disasters.But it’s the one thing I think a lot of Chinese AIO has not perfected besides software/firmware.
Where’s the lie in his post? He has carried at least a half dozen Chinese relabels (probably 3 or more even right now) Victron, Midnite, and others.
In case you aren't aware Current Connected carries eg4 gear now:

Interesting..Midnite Solar MN15-12K (The ONE) pre-order for AIO now availble. $6,200.00
MidNite Solar “The One” All-In-One Inverter System
Now Available for Pre-Order Midnite Solar MN15-12K All-In-One AIO, Powerful and Flexible.
Waiting for Current Connected pricing!!
For the ardent brand loyalists, they will pay that, but that will be a small market given the advent of sub $3000 options out there now.
If that price is confirmed then they've seen it will be competing with the eg4 12k and solark 15.
And having Midnite behind it goes a long way too!
Patiently waiting!!! The dependability of the midnite products will keep me in thier court for future installs. Also, waiting to see more reviews on capabilities from first hand experience of the people testing "The ONE".
Yes , haven't heard from the tester except High Tech Lab
That $6200 price is about $1k more than the one other place which is taking pre-orders for it (TheSolarBiz). Still will be interesting to see what the official pricing is when Midnite finally releases it.
Because a 200A service really should have two inverters. And with 100a internals you are running 2awg to each inverter vs 2/0 if you are using inverters with 200a switching equipment/breakers.
If you have a house which might draw substantially over 10 KW at any given moment, then asking a 10 KW inverter to handle that means grid failure is followed by inverter shutdown when your house loads go over 10 KW. You have no backup, essentially.
I'm talking about pass though to the grid what the inverter can't invert, so in your scenario if you were requesting 20kw ..10kw would be offset by passing it through the relays to the grid. I think it's called grid assist or something like that. I know Schneider, outback and solark can do this can this inverter do grid assist, I'd assume so since it does have the relays. Solark, at least the 15K, does have 200A relays which makes it a simple install if you don't want to start rewiring and splitting panels.
These are hybrid inverters and will export to grid if desired. The grid then can be used for powering heavy loads with grid assist function.
