Inverter gurus, please help explain the difference between the Inverter types pictured. What are the operational and functional differences?
I highly doubt they can do exactly the same thing as the price difference is significant.
I am considering getting a solar powered system with batteries to complement the poor power supply in my area, which do you suggest I go for considering scalability and durability.
Thanks

Go for the Mpower inverter, though it might be a little more expensive but it's advantages outwit the cost.
1. It is a transformer inverter on like the other one.
2. For durability and rougedness.
3. More intelligent system
It's a pure sinusoidal wave inverter which is best for your appliance.

Hope these may help. Best of luck

Thanks for your response, much appreciated.
please what do you mean by transformer Inverter? what operational difference is that from the other, mind you I'm not particular about the brand of the first but just comparing inverters of its kind with the one below.

yes some Inverters are transformer-less ie they don't use transformer winding (technical term) but rather make used of ICs electronics components, and as such they are lighter in weight, cheaper ETC. Preferably for lite load.

I see.

Thanks alot bro.

Contrary to your submission. Mpower inverter is a modified sine wave inverter with power factor of 0.6.
Its a better option though cos it will give you additional advantage of charging batteries with public utility or generator apart from sunlight.
It will accommodate more load than the later...

Thanks for your input, are you saying the second type of Inverter cannot accommodate charging of batteries through generators and PHCN?
If so, that's a huge disadvantage.
