PatioSun Duo
The two-panel PatioSun kit: 890W of bifacial panels against the same 800W microinverter and the Lite's single 445W panel. Same pre-installed steel mount and sold direct, at roughly £250 more than the single-panel Lite.

Sits right beside the PowerPlug MAX 465 at roughly a £6 premium, for a slightly larger, bifacial panel in place of the 465's smaller, non-bifacial one.
