Necessity is the mother of invention. Sol-Ark was born when like-minded defense engineers and veterans got together to create a better solution than anything they had been able to find for themselves. True energy independence, Sol-Arks are military-tough, yoga-flexible and incredibly easy to install. Even a handy DIYer can do it.
We deal with many inverter, solar panel and battery manufacturers. While most provide a good level of support, Sol-Ark is hands down FAR ahead of everyone. Their inverters are more robust with better technology, and their team is incredibily responsive, usually answering within 2 or 3 hours. They are professional, very knowledgable and always keen to help.
There is no other manufacturer that is even close to them!!
We thank you for the great review. So happy to hear we are "hands down FAR ahead of everyone" We here feel strongly about the innovations we achieve here at Sol-Ark. Many of us are ex-military and respect is a priority as well as keeping families safe. Thanks for choosing Sol-Ark.
I installed a complete solar system and chose a 5K Sol-Ark based on the recommendations of my local solar product shop. The first thing I found out is they were right recommending a 5K unit. My average draw rarely exceeds 3K and that is with two inverter type ac units running plus the misc house loads. Installation is essentially idiot proof if you read the manual carefully. I had an alarm come up after the initial power up. This was promptly corrected by a software update which was done remotely in 20 minutes time. The unit has been running smoothly for over three weeks. By 9 am the power company is automatically disconnected until about 5 pm. Can't wait to receive my power bill.
The only gripe I have and its a small one is the connection for the sensors is very delicate. You must use a small flat screwdriver and push very gently to open the contact to accept the wire. And that it, 4.8 out of 5 is my rating. Its a superior product manufactured with very high quality components.
Thank you for choosing Sol-Ark and thanks for the review. Happy to see the install went well with the instructional manual. The software updates are a plus also. Sorry about the missing details about the delicate connection for the sensors. I will pass that on. Thank you and Welcome to Sol-Ark.
My Solark12 was installed a month ago and has performed almost exactly as expected. The device almost appears to be performing magic as it manages my power usage, sourcing from PV panels, batteries and the grid as per the instructions programmed into the inverter. The only issue I've has is unexplained F18 (Over Current) Fault events. Solark support has been extremely helpful so far to investigate the origin (a firmware update may have solved this).
Thank you so much for the review. Great to see the 12K working as expected and "performing magic" as programmed. Our engineers are an excellent source to solve any issues that may occur and keep you up and running. Thank you so much again!
