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.

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.
