    Personally, I worry about the ethics of the CEO of Tesla, who make the PW3. But perhaps I shouldn't hold that against the actual company?

    He's a character for sure but the battery inverter is one of the few that have been audited to be free of forced labour.

    -  10 x 400w LG Bifacial + 6 x 550W SHARP BiFacial + 2 x 570W SHARP Bifacial + 5kW SolarEdge Inverter + SolarEdge Optimizers. SE London.

    -  Triple aspect: ENE (2.7 kWp), WSW (3.3 kWp), SSE (2.4 kWp)

    -  Viessmann 200-W on Advanced Weather Comp. (The most efficient gas boiler sold)

    Feel free to DM me for help with any form of energy saving! Happy to help!

    I think his actions put him beyond being "a character", eg the number of children worldwide who have died/will die due to the closure of USAID as just one example that doesn't rely on making a link between what he posts and supports and the real world consequences (though personally I hold him responsible for that too). I truly admire your refusal to support slave labour, I just don't believe that Tesla is the clearly ethical alternative.
