Will used IQ7/8/8+ Microinverters still work and just not report data?

I've been looking at eBay and elsewhere for used microinverters since they're so expensive new. Will used microinverters still physically work?

Seattle City Light - Net Metering requirements

Newbie question but I've got Seattle City Light and leaning towards a backfed breaker w/ an EG4 smart inverter.

With a backfed breaker as long as the meter tracks energy exporting to the grid, is there anything else I'd need to provide? Or am I off base and it doesn't work like that

Advice | Solar Setup on Detached Garage - Net Metering w/ Hybrid Inverter

I'd like to build out a solar system before utility rates spike in my area. Ideally a Net Metering setup for a ~3.2 KW array due to shade. Space next to the meter is scarce due to gutter and heat pump location. Panel is flush mounted on an interior wall, also not much room inside.

Solar Setup Basic Layout

Is there a cleanish way to get this system going?

Potential future Battery Backup & flexibility for Bi-directional EV Charging in the future would also be great. I'm an electrician so can perform the work but don't have much experience with Net Metering

Thanks
