I'm hoping someone on here might know the answer to this.

I'm going to be installing a simple 1,350 watt array on a new home in the way of a solar awning using just six SunPower 225 panels.    The folks at SunPower state this can be done using their smallest inverter (3000m), but that I won't get the maximum amount of juice from the system because the inverter is still a little large for the system.    It'll work, just not optimally.    I was told that I could go with another inverter aside from SunPower, as long as it was a positive ground inverter.    I know Xantrex makes a 2.8 kW inverter, but am curious whether there may be other positive ground inverters out there that could be even better sized for this system.    Does anyone have any suggestions as to whom might make one?

I really appreciate the feedback.
