| I particularly like the Enlighten App that allows me to check energy consumption as well production on an almost realtime basis. The graphical representation of the energy balance has resulted in even my wife becoming more energy conscious. The power of visual management........
Every now and then we seem to be losing connection (not sure why) but the system then buffers data locally, hence no data losses. Bought From: Green Sky Australia Review Date: 2 November 2016 |

| Very pleased with the Enphase individual inverter per panel system. The online reporting system is delayed sometimes but seems to catch up eventually,some of this may be quality of the internet service more so than the Enphase units and their software.

| We have 4 Enphase batteries (total 6 kWh). We went for Enphase batteries and micro-inverters because we liked: i) AC wiring; ii) the modular approach to batteries (you only buy the storage you need); iii) their software (My Enlighten) for managing the flows between panels, batteries and grid.

| The house runs solely on the solar system throughout a nice sunny day we do not use any power from grid at all the system is very intelligent and extremely easy to use and you can see a up-to-date performances at any time on your computer it is far advanced this system great value for money ready for batteries to be retrofitted in the future when they become cheaper and when you actually have a break even cost with the batteries Bought From: Solaray Energy Pty Ltd Review Date: 30 August 2016 |

| It is a bit difficult to say as we have one set of panels with Enphase inverters which I have access to for performance and two sets which each have a large inverter on the wall. Hopefully when I get the Smart-meter (sometime this month) I will be able to compare. Or am I being too optimistic?

Matt | NSW | 2850 | |
| I am hopeful that one day soon (if the govt rectifies their issues) we might be able to look at a battery (provided costs come down a bit) in addition.
It seems, that we have had an excellent saving in relation to being able to draw the power we are consuming in our home from the sun. Our energy bills have definitely come down. which is great news. It has only been a year, so I do not know what is going on, on the roof in terms of lifetime quality of what we have installed but I hope it will last for a while yet as we should pay off the investment in 4 years (3 more) and then we will hit some actual savings!

| The only criticism is the microinverter monitor as it fails to communicate with Enphase server every now and then. When it eventually connected to the server, it does upload all the missing data. Other than that they just work quietly everyday.
The next size up microinverters might provide a little bit of extra output in those extremely good sunny days but the extra cost making it in-economical. Bought From: Solargain Review Date: 29 May 2016 |

| I have 18 microinverters rather than a single inverter. This has been advantageous since one of the trees near our house started to shade one panel. Seems to have hardly affected production.
Enphase's MyEnlighten product (no extra charge) makes it easy to keep track of production. Came in useful when I forgot to reconnect the Envoy to my new WiFi network. Bought From: Solaray Energy Pty Ltd Review Date: 5 October 2015 |

| Really, no problems. We went with Enphase M215 micro inverters and haven't had any problems or service disruption at all. The related monitoring software indicates that all micro-inverters are performing optimally after 12 months. Bought From: Solaray Energy Pty Ltd Review Date: 8 January 2016 |
Mark | NSW | 2155 | |
| Enphase also provide cloud-based data collection and web portal to monitor the performance of the system. While I generally dislike too much clould based info for security reasons, the personal info is minimal, but the performance reporting is very good.

| Obviously the Enphase System reports the gross amount of energy generated, but the reporting system is not integrated with the Aurora meter and accordingly does not show net energy produced as compared to energy generated. There appears to no capacity to reconcile between the Enphase system and the Aurora meters. Bought From: 1800 TAS SOLAR Review Date: 27 November 2015 |

| These micro-inverters are not compatible with the recently released Tesla battery, there is an enphase battery solution, but IMO this is not as good as the Tesla option. If you want to use the Tesla product you need to swap out your micro inverters for a single. On the positive side one inverter per panel is good in terms of performance, e.g. if one panel is shaded or not working all the others still produce.

| Probably could have got away with a standard string inverter. The shading I was trying to offset would perhaps have been better addressed by putting panels on the east-south-east facing roof (we have limited useable roof space). Bought From: Glen Clark and Co Review Date: 18 November 2015 |

| These are Micro-inverters which are installed under each Solar Panel. Making them more efficient as the DC is converted to AC directly. Plus it enables the panels to perform better as they are more independent. If 1 panel gets shade on it from trees etc, it doesn't affect the performance of the other Panels.

| We have Enphase micro inverters, one per panel.i.e. 10 number.
The system is split with 8 panels due north and 2 panels 10 deg East.wired in parallel.
Because of this system we get power production over a longer period of the day.
Shadowing of the 2 panels in the afternoon does shut down the whole system, as would happen with a series wired system. Bought From: Green Energy Options Review Date: 20 August 2014 |
