Sunny Boy Stats "final" [RE-wrenches]

[Nick Nicholas, APS]

Hi Jeff:
    Some other large distributors would disagree with your SB stats.  One
large distributor thought 10-12% was extremely high.

> It looks like this string has wound down. I've complied the numbers given
by all and the average is 12.75% failure rate. Two other observations came
from this - 1) a rather high DOA and 2)once fixed and opperating for a week
or two there are very few problems thereafter. I'm sure we all would like to
see inverters more reliable than this, but at this time all agree (including
me) that SMA has the best product around and the service is hard to beat
anywhere. We also have a manufacturer here that makes very generous,
valuable and consistant contributions to this list, thank you John Berdner.

> The moral of the story and as John @ SMA has always been telling me -
Always carry a spare inverter in your rig to the job sites.
