Peter, The fellow is living with a 120 volt DC battery bank, using it to power his place and a 20 HP motor on his sawmill.
He wants to reduce the electric bill further than he already has. So we are looking for an inverter that will take 120 volt DC nominal from the panels / batteries and send it to the grid. I am supposed to meet him tomorrow and hope to have more info afterwards.

Or do you mean that they want a 120 Vac (RMS) output? If the former, what output voltage do you want? If the latter, what is their nominal dc input voltage (better yet the range of DC input voltages over a range of typical temperatures and irradiance values)? - Peter Peter T.
