I was shocked to see that Midnite Solar is selling  DYI line of inverters and a charge controller that is made in China. I am kind of interested in the inverters since they will be backed by MS support and warranty. I thought MS was designing their own affordable US made inverters?

    Been doing a little research and it seems MS might be using the same Chinese manufacturer as the inverters with the Renogy brand. I have an email in with MS to see if they have an e-panel code compliant set up for them yet.

    Perhaps you search here was hampered by the DYI vs DIY. There has been a discussion including input from boB (one of the Owner/Engineers at Midnite)
