Rated separately for each product.

#2 of 9 inverter brands
A proven, widely installed inverter brand with excellent specs across solar-only and hybrid models. Its two recalls were both fixed, but they're worth knowing about.

#6 of 9 home battery brands
Solid batteries that pair neatly with GoodWe hybrids, from a well-established brand. Specs and warranty terms are middle of the pack rather than class-leading.
