Our verdict
Is a Tesla inverter right for you?
Powerwall 3's built-in inverter does the job well and keeps everything in one box. As an inverter alone it's middle of the pack; its strength is the complete battery system.
Rated 6.6/10, #7 of 9 brands we rate for inverters.
A good fit if
- You're buying Powerwall 3 anyway
Maybe look elsewhere if
- You only want solar now, with no battery

Questions to ask your installer

- 2How many MPPTs, and which roof faces go on each?
- 3Can I see the warranty letter, and who services it locally?
A good installer will be glad you asked, whichever brand you choose.
