It runs 120VAC single-phase, takes up to 8000W of solar across two MPPT trackers, and will operate with or without a battery attached.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this inverter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6500VA \/ 6500W continuous with a 13,000VA surge, which is enough headroom for compressor and pump startup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8000W of PV input split as two 4000W MPPT trackers, so you can run two differently-oriented arrays without them dragging each other down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharges at up to 120A from solar, from AC, or combined, with three selectable modes: solar first, solar and grid together, or solar only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree load priority modes let you decide whether the grid, the panels or the battery serves the loads first — the difference between a system that saves money and one that just works.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery-independent design. It will run loads on solar alone with no battery connected, which is unusual and genuinely useful for daytime-only workshop or pump duty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with AGM and a range of lithium protocols including Pylontech, WECO, Soltaro and LIB-Protocol, with a reserved BMS port (RS485, CAN-BUS or RS232).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWiFi monitoring through Rich Solar's Android and iOS app, RGB status lighting, on-board data logging and USB on-the-go transfer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe cooling fan is user-replaceable, which matters more than it sounds — fans are the usual first failure on inverters of this class.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBe aware before you buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput is 120VAC single-phase only. It will not run a 240V well pump or dryer on its own; that needs two units configured for split phase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeak efficiency is 91%, which is mid-pack rather than class-leading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo-load consumption is under 75W. Over a day of idling that is close to 1.8kWh, so if the system sits unloaded for long stretches, plan for that drain or shut it down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich Solar's own page gives two different operating temperature figures. The specification table says 14 F to 104 F; the marketing text says 14 F to 122 F. We have listed the specification table value as the conservative one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMPPT input window is 90-230VDC with a 250VDC absolute open-circuit ceiling. Size strings for the coldest morning you expect, not the average day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e44 lb and 6.2 x 19.8 x 20.9 inches — a manageable one-person wall mount, unlike the larger NOVA units.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e48VDC nominal battery bank, floating at 54VDC with overcharge protection at 66VDC.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a built-in anti-dust kit, but this is an indoor-rated unit; no IP rating is published.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional 12VDC 100W auxiliary output is available for a small fan, LED lighting or a router.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to six units can be paralleled in single-phase, split-phase or three-phase for a maximum of 39kW.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovered by Rich Solar's standard limited warranty.
