Best Hoymiles inverter for your array

Updated: October 2026

You already know you want a Hoymiles microinverter, and the open question is which of the three amazon.co.uk rows fits the panels you actually have. Best Hoymiles inverter, on this page, means that fit on 21 October 2026, not a national ranking. The [Hoymiles inverter](/hub/electrical-equipment/hoymiles-inverter) comparison holds the HMS-1800 listing at £429.99, the HMS-1000 listing at £379.99, and the HM-700 balcony package at £379.99. A 20 October 2026 snippet at £299.99 is not the price cited here. There was no lab test. A purchase through our links can earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

What this comparison can call a fit

Other best Hoymiles pages rank an HMS-800W-2T, an installer HMS-1800-4T from a trade counter, or a code that never appears in this basket. Those prices are not prices for these ASINs. The only choice here is B0BS6TCMMD, B0BS6RZR83 and B0BZ8D67FP. The HMS-1800 listing is the top pick when you already have four panels inside its printed window and you accept the standards line on the card. The HM-700 package is the best value only as a bracket-and-cable bundle at the same £379.99 as the bare HMS-1000 listing. If you have not yet checked suffix, connector and the register, stop and use the Hoymiles inverter buying guide.

Four panels

The HMS-1800 listing is the row that states four inputs. It prints 1,800 VA, an MPPT window of 16–60 V, a maximum of 65 V, and 4 × 16 A, at 5.34 kg, with a pure sine output at 230 V and 50 Hz. Use the listing for this ASIN. Do not average it with another retailer’s sheet. The box is the microinverter. A DTU-WLite-S or DTU-Pro-S is required for S-Miles Cloud and is not included. The standards text is UL 1741, IEEE 1547 and NEC rapid shutdown. There is no G98 number on the card. 1,800 VA also sits above the 800 W plug-in class.

Two panels

The two-panel conversation starts at £379.99 on the HMS-1000 listing. The title says 1,000 VA for two panels, with an MPPT window of 16–60 V, a 65 V maximum and 2 × 16 A. One bullet says 800 W and up to one panel. A voltage field says 12 V DC. Averaging 800 W and 1,000 VA, or 12 V and 65 V, invents a product the listing does not sell. There is no customer-reviews line. The DTU is the same S-series pair as the four-input row, and it is not in the box. The connector is not named. One bullet says hm series, which does not make the title an HM-700. Skip this row as a settled spec while those bullets remain.

Balcony brackets

The HM-700 package is the row that includes hardware, at the same £379.99 as the conflicted HMS-1000 listing. You get the inverter, aluminium balcony brackets stated for a 0–30 degree angle and metal railings, and a 3 m cable. You do not get a solar panel. The MPP line is printed as 16–20 V DC. The Europe HM sheet for this family prints 16–60 V, so follow the listing when you are judging this ASIN. The lead is Betteri BC01 to an EU embedded plug. That is why the best-value label is only about the extra brackets and cable, not about a UK 13 A installation. A lifetime-defects field and a 25-year bullet should not be merged into one warranty.

Common questions

Which kept row is for four panels?
The HMS-1800 listing, at £429.99, is the four-input card, rated 1,800 VA, with 16–60 V MPPT and a 65 V maximum. It is the top pick for that panel count if you will buy an S-series DTU separately and you can accept UL 1741 and NEC text instead of a G98 number on the page.
Why is the HMS-1000 title not enough for two panels?
The title says two panels and 1,000 VA at £379.99. A bullet on the same listing says 800 W and one panel, and a field says 12 V DC. Until those lines are resolved against the label, the card is not a specification you can design an array from. The missing review line does not fill that gap.
Is the HM-700 package a better buy because it includes brackets?
At the same £379.99 as the HMS-1000 listing, the package adds balcony brackets and a 3 m lead, and that is the best-value case. It does not add a panel, a UK 13 A plug, or a reviews line. If you cannot use an EU embedded plug, the brackets do not make it the better buy.
Should you skip a listing that prints UL 1741 and NEC?
Skip it when your electrician or your DNO paperwork needs a UK type-test reference on the product you are buying. Both HMS listings print UL 1741, IEEE 1547 and NEC rapid shutdown, and neither prints a G98 number. That is a reason to pause, not a hidden UK approval.
Does 3.3 from 4 make the HMS-1800 the quality pick?
It makes it the only kept row with a star line. The four saved reviews are from France and Spain, one of them reporting output falling above about 1,200 W with four 410 W panels. The score behind the top pick is that star line scaled to 100. It is not a lab test.
Is £429.99 the price to cite when a snippet shows £299.99?
Yes for this comparison. The saved amazon.co.uk price for the HMS-1800 listing is £429.99. A snippet recorded on 20 October 2026 showed £299.99 and is not used as the shelf price. The other two rows stay at £379.99, including VAT as shown on the HM-700 fetch.
