The verdict

Identical on every published parameter

All 29 comparable parameters agree, with 3 more left out because at least one datasheet does not publish them. Two records this alike are usually one inverter sold under two names, or two ratings of one platform - decide on price, on the warranty terms and on who you would rather buy from.
