cant imagine the Epanel or Nottagutter making you feel claustrophobic

Also Midnite solar is in the process of having there combiners listed
for AC use as well as DC.
I have been very happy with AEE once I got a good steady sales person. I do
miss the dealer login and hopefully they will fix that some day?
I have also had good luck with Power Up but they are a little more money and
don't stock as much.

I think the thing that I still haven't seen mentioned, is printed on the
device itself, it's nameplate says 215 @.95 power Factor.
Which would mean, at unity it would be higher...
Another shining example of this company not telling the whole story in their
documentation.
Does anyone have an opinion about the best sources or approaches for
training proper and efficient fall protection rigging techniques for the
variety of applications we run in to installing PV. Manufacturers, training
organizations, OSHA Contacts, Etc. I have definitely cowboy'ed a few times,
and
Dan,
Thanks for the E-caps post.
Could you briefly describe why the Thin-Film Caps guys continue to spread
this rumor?
Perhaps give a brief description of the differences?
Perhaps some weaknesses of the thin-film caps?
I'd love to get your take on this.
Thanks,
Hi Jesse,
Good open questionhere's what I think about this problem
We all understand that electrical components have very clear performance
versus cost trade-offs.
I think extreme outside conditions, like those below -40°C temps, simply
lend themselves to a string/central PV topology
