PowerXpress Plug-in Solar 920W

The 800W in Screwfix's listing title is the microinverter's AC output; the panels total 920W (2 × 460W), and both figures are correct and describe different parts of the kit. Sold with fixings for wall, floor or balcony mounting, but Screwfix's own spec table states a 1-year manufacturer guarantee, well short of the 10-year panel warranties common elsewhere in this catalogue.

Thunder Bolt 920W

The sensible middle of the register-listed range: enough panel capacity to make real use of the 800W cap, and two independent MPPTs so one shaded panel doesn't drag the other down. Bracket sets included for a garden or flat roof, shed, outbuilding or rear extension roof.
