- Split-phase 120/240 V from one unit, so 240 V well pumps run without a second inverter
- Listed to UL 1741, which most permit inspectors expect
- 60 A charger with a lithium profile refills a 48 V bank from grid or generator
- Under 8 W in power-saving mode
- Programming needs the EVO-RC-PLUS remote, sold separately
- Cannot be paralleled to grow past 4,200 W
- 64 lb and hardwire only, so it is a fixed install
