Roy,
Good Show. Any failures or call backs for any reason yet?

>I sincerely hope this winds up on the list. We have installed 3 ETAs this
>year, with 2 more sitting in the shop waiting for install and 2 more
>confirmed sales/ installs by the end of September. We primarily use these
>for farm livestock watering purposes and one of the biggest concerns here
>is not having enough sun and/ or water for dairy cattle. This is a huge
>concern, especially during the very hot/ dry weather we've been having in
>the northeast this year.

>So....we started looking into the battery options, mostly as a backup. Yes,
>I know, PV direct is much more efficient, but when animals lives are at
>stake and if the customer wants water 24/7, then the loss has to be
>accepted and dealt with accordingly.
>
>Right now we've only installed the 48 volt pumps with the PV direct
>controller...but the good folks at Dankoff have come up with a nifty way to
>use the existing EP600 PV controller with a 48 volt battery bank and that's
>the backup capability we and our farm customers have been looking for.

>So....please....count me in on any ETA discussion if you would!

>Oh yeah....just walked in the door from installing an ETA pump for a
>serious doubting thomas farmer. Shoulda seen his eyes light up when the
>water began to flow....2 gpm at 6:30 in the evening under partly cloudy
>conditions...he says he's going to sleep REAL well tonight!
