As of July 19,2024 some say that SunPower's announcement to stop new
leases, installations, and shipments may indicate the end of the company
as an operating business. SunPower's stock has also dropped nearly 93%
in the last 12 months
Ouch, fair to say the writing has been on the wall or the WallStreet
longer than 2024. Better get your parts soon😉

Evan,
I am not sure if this is the same issue, but I have seen a lot of arc
fault issues with the E20-327 modules paired with SMA inverters. Every
system that we have done repairs on have had the Yukita junction boxes,
and there were a handful of failed solder joints on the diodes in the
junction boxes. Sunpower is having contractors cut out the diodes and
install an external diode per module. The issues related to this have
popped up a lot in the past few years, even though the modules were
installed roughly around 2015-2018.
Cheers,
Dave

Anyone happen know the make/model of connectors associated with the
Sunpower cracking issues a couple years back? News stories do a good
job of obscuring it.
