Wrenches:

Baran asks a good question.

To my knowledge, not yet.  Based on the conversations I have been having
with a number of Domestic & Foreign Manufacturers, there is a lot "in the
works".  Most of them already have working production models and need to
follow the same course SMA did....Make the modifications to accomodate the
NEC, UL and American Grid requirements.  Some are developing an "all new"
product, just for the US.

I expect that late Spring & early Summer will get pretty exciting for all of
us!

The final products will be diverse in DC Voltage Configurations, making
selection based on preference a possibility.

There is finally a recognition that the US market is worthy of investment.
Competition will be good for the entire industry....Doncha think?

More later,

Matt Lafferty
