Foxess challenges and competition in Australia.
Post# of 10783
Another company (Maitian Energy Co Ltd) already out of the gate with their labels on Australia Foxess inverters. Sun Pacific Power has no $ and no experience with these products...so good luck setting up and selling in Australia or from nj. lol
Fox Inverters Available in Australia
Fifteen of Fox’s Inverters (under the name of Maitian Energy Co Ltd) are approved by the Clean Energy Council for the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme, which is Australia’s home solar rebate program.

As of 2-28-22
Being a new company Fox ESS are yet to set up a local presence with no listed Australian office address or Australian website. There is however a Australian contact number (1300 377 369) for service and tech support.

Foxess Product Review
Cons
Only 5 year warranty comes standard with Fox-ESS inverters, although you can purchase an extension
No Australian office or support staff is currently held by Fox-ESS
So, is Fox-ESS a good solar inverter brand?
Fox-ESS is still a young company who are building a presence in Australia and attempting to win market share. There are always risks in buying products from a young company as they do not have a track record to prove they will be around to service the products and uphold warranty claims if necessary. This is particularly the case in solar power where products have long warranty periods and expected lifetimes.
There are some promising signs from Fox-ESS to suggest they will be competitive with some of the major brands over time, but at present there are no particular features of these inverters that would justify the risks of buying from such a young company.
