Owner experience

What repeats after the purchase

Owner discussion repeatedly returns to transfer-switch setup and large-unit idle use rather than specifications alone.

These are self-reported experiences from a changing mix of owners, conditions and software versions. They identify questions to test, not a failure rate.
SignalWhat owners reportOur readEvidence

Transfer-switch setup and large-unit idle use

Owners repeatedly report that idle draw, inverter efficiency, fan behavior, firmware, solar compatibility, neutral and grounding behavior, support and the exact load list matter more than nominal watt-hours alone.

Model the installed home kit and expected standby loss rather than treating the base-station sale as the complete backup price.
