Price is right....

 

[Steve_S]

These are MASSIVE 156 cell beasts !
1956*1310*45 mm = 77" x 51" x 1.7".
I can't imagine the S&H on these … oh boy, I bet it would be dear.

 

[El Jack]

These caught my eye too. I think they may be a bit big for roof-top mounting, thoughts appreciated.

Has anyone gotten a shipping quote on these?

The web page says free shipping. Seems too good to be true?

Just one of those would fit perfectly on top my 8' camper shell and might leave room for a 14" x 14" vent.
But the voltage limit on my DC-DC/MPPT is 45V.

Spec listing says 96 cells...
Free shipping on over 2 panels...
Also on the page is, 100Ah 48v LiFePO4 pack...$1030...

I actually have 20 of these 500W/96cell panels on order. Shipping cost was fine considering it's a 730kg package.

 

[upnorthandpersonal]

Has anyone gotten a shipping quote on these?

Not from the same provider, but 20 panels to Finland is $1200 door-to-door with customs etc. taken care of. As mentioned, it comes in a ~720kg package, so I'm pretty happy with that.

That's excellent. May you post a link to the seller please?

I requested from Yangtze (the original post) however minimum order is 10 panels.

Much appreciated. Odd that the listing's data sheet is for a 350w panel :-/

 

[upnorthandpersonal]

Yeah, it's the datasheet of one of the other models in the range. When you chat with (in my case Kimmi) you should make sure you specify exactly what you need. However, her English seems very good!

[upnorthandpersonal]

@buckwhea Nice! Pretty close to the price I got. My shipping is slightly more expensive, but that's due to taxes. Pretty amazing price none the less...

not as good a price as the used BYD, but wow, 4.8KWh new... at nearly 1/4 the price of battleborn...

 

[shaymcquaid]

I’m looking at 6 of the 500 watters for my Skoolie. 3000 watts ?
$800 usd to port in Houston. (Road trip!!?)
Quoted $80 shipping. Pick up for free.
25 days.

I,I,I just cant say no to that!

 

[drh]

I actually have 20 of these 500W/96cell panels on order. Shipping cost was fine considering it's a 730kg package.

I am also very interested in ordering 20 of these.
I would have loved to hear from someone with experience of them before ordering but that could be too long a wait, worst case scenario going by their timings for order and shipment, it could be 3 - 4 months before they land

 

[upnorthandpersonal]

I should get them in 2 months or so, but that might be longer depending on the Corona situation. I'll make a report topic once I have them.

 

[drh]

Great!, I think a lot of people will be interested to hear about your experience.

I'm not sure I can wait that long since I could really do with panels asap as it is

 

[upnorthandpersonal]

Well, crap. I just got notified that they can't be sure of the duties/taxes expenses anymore (Corona stuff). This would lead to increased costs, so they agreed to cancel the order for now and we'll pick it up after the current situation. Might chat with a few other suppliers as well...

 

[drh]

Strange, I don't see how Corona will affect duties/taxes, only shipping times and even then, that seems to have improved in the last few weeks.
