YES! I finally dug into this this morning. 6 lines of code to fix it but figuring out those 6 lines took me about 2 hours . Should go live tonight.The main thing for me right now is on mobile it is very hard to reach the sub catagories in your navigation menu
The new 280ah cells are coming in about 4 months. Unfortunately CALB does not provide them in the -B (bolt terminal) model, since their bolted connection is not rated for 280a (1c rate). Since we use them for solar at far below 1c rates, I have an order placed that will be going to SOK's factory so they can weld me on some terminals and then send them on one of our upcoming containers.access to more of the CALB catalog?
John, you are the best. The canvas photos you sent me are hanging on the wall in the family room.I've got to say your rapid growth is well deserved
Gah! Kills me to hear this...but we did try pretty much every shipping company and sadly FedEx has statistically been the most reliable. I swear if we ran a shipping company with our customer service, we'd make billions.even with the occasional fed ex problems.
We do have the inventory tracking down at this point! Our warehouse manager is top-notch, and always lets us know when we are anywhere near concerned about running low on things. Also, we are signed on with Midnite to offer their products...I probably should start looking for a catalog manager to help get all the products listed.Similar to ordering directly from Midnite.
That would mean we would need more returns...which...yeah, we don't want that!Personally, I would like to see more stuff on the shack
Absolutely! We have been trying to grow our kits offerings across the board and keeping them listed in a logical manner. A staffing bottleneck at the moment. I've been working on getting more help in tech support first, before expanding our offerings, so we don't sacrifice support for sales.considered offering more economical kits?
Great idea! By the way we just revised the SOK manual about 2 weeks ago. It is still highly interactive for further reading which would suffer if you saved as a PDF, however, you can get the important content printing to PDF. We did this originally because Jakiper was ripping off everything we published, so I didn't want them just slapping their logo on the manual that I wrote to differentiate ourselves.It should be something like:
- a complete set of docs (datasheet, installation, operations, troubleshooting, safety/security, and warranty)
That perfectly part is the issue. SMA is not registering SOC% below 20%...no matter what we tell the inverter it's not listening. The rest of the bugs have been worked out.Get that SOK server rack battery working perfectly with SMA Sunny Island.
Yes. Soon. A better rack for 48v too.Come up with a high voltage battery solution
I agree with your list, except the JBD's. JBD screwed us over on our last order and about 300x 16S BMSs were nearly unusable. They also changed various design aspects mid-production run that made an even bigger mess for us.A couple things I'd like to see:
We used to. They messed up on our tax documents out of their own stupidity and put constant holds on our money for quite a long time. The holds alone forced us to take out a kneecap business loan when we were getting started in COVID. Did you know PayPal's outsources their tax department to a company in Ireland? Yeah, all of our confidential business information handled by a third party in a different country without our consent. I'm still salty about PayPal's horrible practices. Stripe is used by a lot of large companies and offer essentially the same buyer protection as PayPal without trying to put the sellers out of business. -endrantConsider taking paypal as a form of payment
I greatly appreciate everyone's feedback and am even happier to see that some of our ideas are inline with what is being requested!
