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 465

The entry point into Plug In Solar's Perlight PowerPlug MAX range: one 465W panel on a mount rated for wall, floor or balcony fixing. Not bifacial, unlike the 500W and 1000W PowerPlug MAX kits alongside it. With a single panel, its capacity is well under the 800W output cap.
