Belize panels [RE-wrenches]

Hi Kurt,

Any chance these PV's could get distributed amongst the wrenches? I'm sure most
of us wouldn't mind some "defective" modules like this in our personal home
systems. I scored 2 M-55's a few years back that had J' Boxes ripped off (when
the mounting was destroyed in high winds) and in the J' box removal process,
several inches of the connection to the module was uprooted off the the teldar
backing. With some soldering and lots of silicone they are functioning fine now.
I wouldn't want anyone else to have to deal with something like that other than a
wrench, but hey an extra 90 watts for free is nothing to turn down.

My point is if at all salvageable, these PV's deserve to be out in the sun
working to offset their imbedded manufacturing energy cost. Who would be better
suited to fix up and baby sit these units during the rest of their lives than
some wrenches?

I'm open to taking 10 or 12 of them off their hands for shipping plus say $50
each. Anyone else interested?

Todd
