I wouldn't bite
Strip everything away but the cells and you're looking at $60 per cell.
I doubt you could find that kind of a deal for 280ah cells
What sounds crazy cheap is likely to be crazy expensive bait.
If you look out your window you should still see the pigs flying by delivering those panels.
With claims like that I would also expect the controllers to be actual bricks
Some of the biggest scams often involve portable panels
As far as Amazon/product links - they're fine as long as they are...
critical comments/warnings from the forum
After review I see there's only one member that adamantly disapproves of the MOES
from tims again on another post
More than likely. The people who didn't listen to the warnings. Were too embarrassed to return.
You have been very lucky, so far.

I bought one after seeing Will's video. (2020)
I built a backup system (1200w panels, 24v system) and it was the answer to using some power while reserving some for outages.
I'm now up to 3000w solar with 20,000 kWh battery bank and during all this time I've had no problem with the Moes.

I've found it takes about a year for mismatched MC4s to break down, some may last longer but it's a hit and miss thing with "compatibility".
When it comes to panel to panel things are OK but as soon as I run a string to a charge controller or combiner box I'll replace the MC4s so I have a...
There's a very good chance that the panels are fine and only the MC4 connectors will need to be replaced.
I got a couple of never used, awful looking panels that were 'stored' on the ground for about 6 years.
The MC4s had to be replaced and the panels washed - good as new
There are some who call me Tim
Follow. But! Follow only if ye be men of valor! For the entrance to this cave is guarded by a creature so foul, so cruel, that no man yet has fought with it... and lived!

a 2x4 spans the the 4x4s and the pvc rests on it
the pvc is bolted to the bottom of the "hinged" 2x4s
spaced holes are drilled in the pvc and a long bolt is inserted thru and into a hole in the 2x4 span.
panels are mounted in pairs, each is...
If you're only mounting 4 panels something like this with adjustable tilt may interest you

Thinking about it I've come to the conclusion that it would be best to start the wash and hopefully the good lady will finish.
You might have to finish it yourself so the trick is not to do it right

You're making it easier for me to decide on the 6000XP
That and seeing it for sale on Current Connected (while the 3K is not)
Current Connected has a outstanding reputation for service and I doubt they'd stock anything that would be problematic.
