Real Goods has been flying a 175 (48-volt) at our Solar Living Center for over
5 years. The models being sold now have an improved rectifying and control
panel, which is good, since blown diodes in the rectifier are the only problem
we've ever had with it. It's mounted on one of the nice easy fold-over 70'
towers, but we've never had to bring it down (yet). It's a good windy site,
with a dependable coastal afternoon breeze of 10 to 15 mph every afternoon,
spring thru fall. It's been a good unit.
