The Chinese has this unbelievable ability to reverse engineer just about any product, cheaper and quicker, than anyone else.

And they have no qualms to ignore IP of others, even those of their own countrymen.

Looking at the website, If it is the right one, has a familiar ring about it ... cannot place where I have seen it: http://www.growatt.com/product/index13.html

So I would not be surprised if it is another Voltronic type line coming our way.

 

Never seen a Victron copied though ... I just HAD to add that!!! :D

Also, this one only differs in colour from an old Victron-badged unit:

I believe the ve-direct based controllers are actually manufactured in China.

My WORD!!! I am floored! Did NOT see this coming!

Ja, I know everyone has China making them stuff, but money will keep them from copying, until a competitor makes a move.

But still, I did not see the make believe Victron simulation coming.

Also note it's only ip43 rated, not ip65 like the real thing.

Now which newbie will know the difference. It is all about price. ;)
