DIY system

Is it a good Idea to buy separate products from distributors and then have a installer get it done.

Panels and invertors are straight forward

We have decided on itel 6.6kw ip66 sparta with 13k pv
Aiko ABC panels

going for L2 , cuz we don't use our roof, there's nothing that would be obstructing sunlight (No future constructions either)

what else should we keep in mind.

If doing it this way is not a good Idea , how should we proceed then?

Itel vs Goodwe & Mono vs Mono perc vs BiFacial

We are choosing between hybrid inverters
I asked my dad to get a goodwe 6kw ip65 hybrid inverter it's going for 235k
He did his own research and thinking that itel 6.6kw ip66 that is going for 210k is the better option
he says the reviews are great, the after service also looks good from the reviews etc
and he thinks the tech is better cuz it supports 13k input pv.

I have no clue about what pv is and am not well-versed with electronics, so not sure what I should advice him

We are also going to buy longi panels, read some post saying that going for the x7 is also fine as it doesn't change much. but wondering if that anti shade tech is worth it, our roof is not use by us , and their are no obstruction or buildings around to obstruct sunlight should we go for raised structure or not.

One last thing which should we go for mono , mono perc or bifacial.
it's more of a diy project instead of having one company take care of everything

Salam, thinking about investing into a system 5kv+. I don't really have that much knowledge about rates.

What is the optimal panel to go for?

What is the optimal inverter to go for?

What to avoid?

Optimal rates for all?

I have a budget of around 700k for now, can invest more in like a couple months

Also read a post on this subreddit saying that you can get lithium ion batteries directly from china for cheaper, like 350k for 15kWa
