PatioSun Max+

PatioSun's flagship: the same dual-MPPT HiFlow PRO microinverter as the Max, but with larger 465W panels for 930W of capacity, the most panel capacity in the range. Whether the roughly £30 premium over the Max is worth it comes down to those extra 40W of panels.

Perlight PowerPlug MAX 1000

The top of the PowerPlug MAX range: two bifacial 500W panels for a full 1000W of capacity, at roughly £12 more than the non-bifacial 930W kit alongside it. The most panel capacity and the only bifacial two-panel kit in the Perlight range.
