The funny thing is I posted this and on Tuesday afternoon Sharp called me about making sure they got the replacements to me.

If they have a location, even just a stock pile storage, in the United States it isn't Alibaba cracking down it is the United States. The US is doing this through the credit card processing companies coming down saying they will stop processing credit cards etc. I haven't purchased through...

I have three arrays on a home I recently purchased. They are made up of mostly ND-208U1's and NTS5E1U's that performing horribly. They each of the arrays are sun tracking and connected to two Sunny Boy SB4000US and one Sunny Boy SB3000US inverters. The house has a legacy connection to NV Energy...

Well the current 3500sqft home uses up to 161kWh/day average and he is more than doubling the sqft with game room, bar, workout room etc. I usually use battle born but that would make it cost prohibitive.

I am in Las Vegas, Nevada, US.

Hi I purchased a home in June of last year that had an existing DIY solar system. The panels need replacing and I am looking for some suggestions that won't break the bank. I have three towers that are on elevation and azimuth systems. The towers are identical the inverters are not, right now...

From what I understand they replace the whole array.

Just an update, Sharp is being jerks about this again. I am going to replace and then move forward with litigation against them.

Yes, that would be very nice, the panels have been changed around, and aren't the originals also they are no longer available. The sizes and ratings have ALL changed in the 14 years since installed. What cost effective brand etc would everyone use is what I am asking.

Do you still have these? I may be interested.

Right now the DC section of the system is a mess, there are six different panels on one of the towers that are all different. I do want to change the setup and wiring on the DC section of the system. I have two towers with a Sunny Boy 4000US inverter on each. I have one tower with a Sunny...

Thanks, I am going to look at them. This system was originally Sharp Panels, they were supposed to be under warranty but Sharp doesn't care so I will not buy anything Sharp ever again.

We are building a large solar and battery system in the Southern Caribbean where electric is not very good. The home uses up to 325kWh/Day so we are sizing to 400kWh/Day with about 350kWh of battery storage on site. This will leave me needing about 30000 ah of battery storage on site needed. The...

More than you have lol. I eMailed SanTan about maybe going with a different panel setup though.

I completely understand that broken wouldn't be. But there are 20 Sharp panels that aren't putting out 50% of what they should be. I live in Las Vegas and they are mounted on a rotating and tilting tower. Yeah, I just looked at San Tan Solar and it looks like for ~4k I can replace everything...

All valid points. There is a pool pump with heater and a hot tub, along with a massive amount of AC that the owner likes to keep in the mid 60's. We are likely going to size for 15kW on the inverter side. At my home in Las Vegas I had 20kW of inverter. 50k is nothing on this really. We...

Where did you try to order a shipping container full of panels from? Where we are located it is cheaper than shipping one or two pallets freight over on the barge than to ship a container from China or Japan. Thanks.
