    I unfortunately can’t speak to this specific solution. I would like to mention though that I have dealt with this company. I have installed two of the Fox 10.5 systems and used their JA solar panels. They are very proactive with installation and setup information on their website. 
     
    I am not sure if they would respond to queries directed here but am sure you should be able to contact them through their website. I do know they have various AIO setups. They were a bit small for my requirements.
     
    When I started sourcing my biggest concern was finding a reliable supplier. My impression was that they have been in the market for many years and are here to stay.
    I hope you find your solution.

    Update after 4+ months of operation is that the system works like an appliance, haven't had to change anything or even draw power from the grid. I've switched the grid on about once a month just so it registers that I still exist but at most it uses 1kwh when I do.
    The inverter stays cool, the batteries stay cool, and I'm able to spend a night cooking and baking and running my slow cooker and air conditioner and still have about 50% battery remaining in the morning when the sun comes out. I was worried a few times when it was raining and cloudy but that just meant the batteries charged up slower with the latest charge up to 99% being 4pm. I haven't even updated my geyser schedule on the CBI astute, it runs 10am to 2pm every day no matter the weather.
    I'm really impressed with how it's changed our lives, with my house becoming the unofficial Pretoria office for my loadshedding-afflicted colleagues that don't want to drive to the Joburg office 😂
     
    Only negatives are that the app isn't as simple or fully featured as the Sunsynk, but honestly once I had it set up and trusted that everything is working as planned, I don't even open the app or the web monitoring console anymore.

    Solarbaby got a reaction from old man joe in FoxBox-ESS All in One - anyone have experience?   
    Hi. Would you be so kind as to post a update on your Fox 10.5. As it is so new to the market you struggle to find relevant information. Your experience so far has been very helpful. Thank you for sharing.
