What happens to your security when the power goes off? Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that. **In this guide you will see:** - Match power rating to your peak load. - Match battery voltage (24 V, 48 V or high-voltage) to your batteries. - Check PV input limits before buying panels. Quick answer Deye, Must, Growatt and Solis are the inverter brands Kenyans search for most. All four make hybrid models that run on solar, batteries and KPLC. The choice should come down to specs, not the badge: power rating, battery voltage and type, how many panels it accepts, phase, export limiting, and local warranty and spares.

Real products, live prices, in stock now ## Key takeaways - Match power rating to your peak load. - Match battery voltage (24 V, 48 V or high-voltage) to your batteries. - Check PV input limits before buying panels. - Need export limiting for EPRA compliance. - Local warranty support matters more than brand. ## What each brand is known for | Brand | Commonly chosen for | Check | | --- | --- | --- | | Deye | Feature-rich hybrid range, single and three-phase, lithium communication | Model's export-limit and parallel options | | Must | Budget off-grid and hybrid units for homes and shops | Whether the model is off-grid only or grid-interactive | | Growatt | Wide range with monitoring app | Battery compatibility list | | Solis | Grid-tie and hybrid, strong in on-grid systems | Hybrid vs grid-tie model before adding batteries | **Important**: Specs differ more between models in the same brand than between brands. Always compare the exact model numbers. ## The specs that decide **Rated power**kW the inverter can supply continuously **Surge**: Short peak for motors and pumps **Battery voltage**: 24 V, 48 V or high-voltage **PV input**: Maximum panel voltage and power **Phase**: Single or three-phase supply **Export control**: CT/meter for zero export Work out your load first with our [battery and inverter sizing guide](https://qyvea.co.ke/battery-and-inverter-sizing-kenya), and see current [inverter prices](https://qyvea.co.ke/solar-inverter-price-in-kenya). ## Pure sine wave, always Any inverter powering a home, CCTV or office equipment should be pure sine wave. Modified sine wave units make fridges, pumps and some chargers run hot or noisy. **When to call a professional**: Qyvea sizes, supplies and installs hybrid systems.
