The optimisers are quick to install and set up, just like the Piko CI itself. In addition to the numerous Tigo features, the Piko CI also comes with corresponding safety features such as AC/DC overvoltage protection, an IP65 housing and an electronic DC disconnect. Monitoring is digital and controlled via tablet, PC or smartphone. (mfo)
