150VDC listing on OutBack DC breakers [RE-wrenches]

[Christopher Freitas --- OutBack Power]

Dan - 

Thanks for bringing this up as well - the breakers themselves are listed 
for 125VDC by UL - we have an additional ETL listing on them for 150VDC 
but only when they are used in the approved OUTBACK enclosure products 
and only for PV applications.  

We put them in the new pricelist listed as 125VDC as that prevents 
confusion about what they are rated for when used in other applications. 
 We did not want to mislead anyone.  

There will be new stickers on the inside of the appropriate FLEXware 
products which lists the breakers that can be used at the 150VDC voltage 
levels.  This should make it less confusing for the inspectors.
