[RE-wrenches] Advanced Energy Inc. Grid-Tie Inverters

[jay peltz]

Hi Jeff,

Yep the AEI GC-1000

Not being made anymore, nor as far as I know is anyone servicing these  
units.

Best bet is to rewire the array for higher voltage and use a new  
inverter.

Not too many other options that I know of.
