That’s where I’m coming from: trying to convince a family member to setup a DC system so the inverter can stay in sleep mode during evening/overnight, because the efficiency is horrendous at small loads. it’s really academic in kWh savings per day, but it saves you the most when sunlight’s the least and reduces battery cycling. But if you’re running an office, the inverter is pretty much running a good load or off, I think.
