Bill, Have you looked at CreoTec? I personally like the Ironridge racking system much better than ProSolar or Unirac. I've seen plenty of demos with Creotec but haven't had the opportunity to use it yet. Looks very cool though and has some rave reviews.

Single-handed mounting for replacing or installing modules on racks. My helper installing an array on an Iron Ridge rack commented (like so many of you have surely thought) that the mid-clamps are really clumsy. His suggestion was that on his, he would lengthen the rail and only use end clamps so each module would be independently mounted, removed or the Enphase replaced. Of course this would apply to UniRack and other mid-clamps too. Can anyone recommend a jig for supporting the line of modules, while they are individually being clamped or unclamped? Perhaps a long length of Al angle braced back to the rail, so the bottoms of the modules can sit in a straight line while they are being clamped. Even a couple sliding Z-shaped spring hooks that can support the bottoms might work one module at a time as long as the rail is s Bill Dorsett Sunwrights 1715 Leavenworth Manhattan, KS 785/539-1956 Home/Office ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Home Power magazine List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Options & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/pipermail/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
