    What this does and doesn't tell you

    • Pre-cooling with solar in the afternoon can cut evening grid use.
    • Off-grid, check the inverter can handle the start-up.
    • Safety: in Australia, any work on 240V AC wiring, including connecting an inverter, battery or solar system to a home's switchboard or fixed wiring, must be done by a licensed electrician.
