Is there a difference between IQ8M/IQ8-M and IQ8MC/IQ8-MC?
- Yes, there are some important differences between Enphase's IQ8M and IQ8MC microinverters. The main differences are:

*Voltage MPP: The IQ8M has a minimum voltage MPP of 30 V, while the IQ8MC has a minimum voltage MPP of 25 V. This means that the IQ8MC is better suited for panels with a lower peak voltage, such as monocrystalline panels.
*Temperature range: The IQ8M has a maximum operating temperature of 65°C, while the IQ8MC has a maximum operating temperature of 80°C. This means that the IQ8MC is more resistant to extreme temperatures.
*Price: The IQ8MC is slightly more expensive than the IQ8M.

In general, the IQ8MC is a better choice for panels with lower peak voltage or for systems operated in extreme temperatures. The IQ8M is a good choice for systems with a limited budget or for systems with panels with a higher peak voltage.
