[QUOTE="binky, post: 536896, member: 490"] I'm not a fan of micro-inverters unless you have shading issues. Fact is they have 2 problems, one, you are adding twice the number of connections on the roof which are the most common failure point, and two, they will need replacing in 20 years, which means scaffolding and lifting all the panels, which will probably mean replacing all the panel clips if you can still get them, and if you can't, replacing the entire framework. I've found that panel clips are pretty impossible to reuse after less than 10 years, they consist of stainless steel and aluminium, which corrode together by electrolytic corrosion ie dissimilar metals and water make a weak battery.
