Besides the GTIL2, are there any inverters that can use the grid power, battery power and pv power all at the same time seamlessly without having to change settings?
Also allow the battery to charge with the excess pv power loads arent using.
Also able to operate at a reasonable battery voltage under 120v, preferably closer to 60v.
And lastly be able to limit its ac power supply to only supply the amount of power the loads are using.
Ive been looking and cant find any others. I have found a few but they need batteries with a really high voltage. The GTIL2 can operate between 45-90v.
I guess Im looking for a grid tie inverter that is not a string inverter. Im wanting to use a lower battery-operating volts than a string inverter will be able to use.
Imo the GTIL2 (although not a well known brand) has things going for it that are not common features for an inverter to have. I think these things would be appreciated by many more people if the brand was more well known. I myself started this post in pursuit of a better quality brand inverter (I haven't had problems with GTIL2) that have these features.
Most people cant be fully offgrid without a costly offgrid setup that most cant afford. Or their area doesnt allow offgrid. So then grid tie is the option for them so they can still use grid power when needed. But they should still be able to store excess pv power (not used throughout the day) in a battery to be used during the night and early morning. The GTIL2 makes all that possible seamlessly. Also the stored battery power can then be used by an offgrid inverter in case of an emergency.
There has to be other inverters than can do all of this using a low voltage battery like the GTIL2 can do. Id hate to have to use a 120+v battery.
