Robin’s Corner
The engineers at MidNite Solar have been designing renewable energy disconnect boxes for twenty years. The majority of the existing disconnect boxes were designed by us. We think we have finally got it right. People in the industry have spent years teaching us what is important to them. Our E-Panels take care of the over current and disconnect requirements. This allows you to devote more of your hard earned money to the performance components such as PV panels, power electronics and batteries.

Big Baby Box
The original Baby box has been a huge success in filling an industry need. It does have it’s short comings though as it is a very small enclosure. We now have in stock an enclosure called the Big Baby. This box is one inch larger in all dimensions. It also includes a ground box lug and mounting provisions for our short insulated bus bar. A dimensioned drawing is under documents on this website. List price $45.00

Having trouble figuring out which E-Panel goes with which inverter? Heck, sometimes even we have trouble remembering all the combinations, so we created this matrix.
