What do you see, Dave? We have 6 12 kW and two 8 kW installed so far in the Bahamas and two here in Maine, all with Fortress batteries, and I cannot be more pleased. I do wish they had a remote monitor panel for easier at home monitoring and I guess I would rather they had their own monitoring system instead of Powerview, but compared to others I am thrilled at the ease of installation and programming, zero service calls and wireless connectivity for monitoring over the internet.
