I live off grid, and am not in the market for any equipment, but like many I retain my interest in what's going on in the industry.  I ran into this new item, a Phocus inverter-charger-kitchen sink.  It goes for about $1600, and strikes me as an extraordinary value.  I'd like to know what others think.
							
						
					This inverter/charger/mppt controller looks to be an incredible value...

That's a legit brand, on a legit site
note that it DOES NOT include a battery
and it's weight is half of the roughly equal capacity Schneider XW
