The inverter is the SW series inverter/charger 4024 made by Xantrex. It runs at 60 Hz, so you can't tell the difference bewteen the inverter power and the city power, like you can other inverters. (With other inverters...fan motors hum...certain electronics don't work...lights buzz...) SW series is a very good inverter. As for batteries we use the interstate workaholic UL-16 (eight) and UL-16HC (sixteen). That is 24 total. About 9800 amp hours. On sunny days we turn on all our fans and the pool pump to use up all the extra power. Also our system includes 3 60 amp outback charge contolers and 32 130 watt kyocera panels on a tracker. Works great. Runs the whole house and then some.
