Thinking of self installing a 5kW solution onto a South facing garage. DIY solution appears to be 60% cheaper than hiring a local installer (Ohio)

Thanks for this extensive reply. Not the OP, but I've been slowly doing my research on this, and this gave me a good base of things to look into. Cheers!

    An example of of "grid-interactive" system is the ecoflow smart home panel. It's the front runner I'm looking at right now for my own system. It will dynamically balance where power is coming from based on your batteries/solar/grid state. Easy to expand battery packs, and ties directly into up to 10 circuits.
