What we do
- Collect specifications from manufacturer pages and major retailer spec sheets. Each product card links its sources.
- Flag gaps: when a spec is missing, contradictory or only listed by a retailer, we say "check" or note it rather than guess.
- Read public reviews and owner discussions to identify recurring themes, which we present as such, not as our own findings.
- Do the maths openly: every sizing example shows its formula and assumptions.
- Follow regulations from official or specialist sources for balcony and plug-in solar, and link them.
What we don't do
- We do not claim hands-on or lab testing of the products on this site.
- We do not publish star ratings or numerical scores, because they would imply testing we haven't done.
- We do not print prices, which change daily; buttons lead to current prices.
- We do not let affiliate commissions decide rankings. Products appear because their specs fit the use case.
Safety stance
We explain options so you can make informed decisions. For anything wired into your home (transfer switches, inlets, sub-panels, hard-wired batteries, balcony circuits), we point you to a licensed electrician and the relevant authority.
