GivEnergy Hybrid Inverter 5.0 (Gen 3)
The longest manufacturer warranty of the full-size inverters here: 12 years, against the 5 years that is standard elsewhere. Electrically it is a conventional 5kW hybrid: two MPPT trackers at one string each, 7.5kWp per string, 97.6% maximum PV efficiency, with a 3,600W backup terminal that transfers in 10ms. At 21.7A maximum output current it is a G99 application, and G99 and G100 are both listed on the datasheet's approvals. It weighs 32kg.

Unusual among the 5kW hybrids in that its maximum AC output (5,500W) is genuinely above its 5,000W rating rather than just a higher apparent-power figure. The 120A charge and discharge current and 35A maximum continuous AC passthrough make it the most off-grid-oriented unit in this list, and the datasheet names both G98 and G99 in its grid regulations. In practice it is a G99 job: rated output current is 22.7A, with 25A maximum. Maximum efficiency is 97.60%; the warranty is 5 years, and at 20.5kg it is among the lighter hybrids.
