You might try Sam Vanderhoof over at Solar Cowboys (Grass Valley area) .. They have been rebuilding and reselling older models of ALL sorts of stuff for the technician-from-another-time. . Any time I need something like a 120vAC SMA or something Legacy. . . They have it. .

I saw one a while back on eBay. The SMA 700 are nice little units for training. The input window is tight with newer modules. The input max current is pretty low.

I also think they are all stand alone in any case. We use a fair number on boats and on the oyster farm. I think the smallest that I can think of is Outback GTFX at 3000 watts, 120VAC, but you probably already looked at that. Chris On 4/29/2019 10:12 AM, Jay wrote: Hi peter. Check amazon or eBay etc. lots of cheap Chinese small inverters.

I kept a couple of the AES 1000s for a while and then finally gave them to our local scrap metal purveyor. I have a 900 W off-grid system that I used to haul around to “green events”. Blue Sky CC, Xantrex 1000 W inverter, 24 V AGM battery set. But as time goes by I spend very little time demoing this big an off-grid system, and I wish I had an AES-1000 to covert my seldom-used off-grid system into a revenue producing grid tied system. Did anyone else keep a working AES-1000 (or low power grid tied inverter) that works and would be willing to part with it for a modest sum. Is there a solid ~1,000 W 120 Vac grid tied inverter out there on the market? My system is comprised of five (5) Tata 180s. Vmpp=35.8 V. * Peter Peter T.
