Why I use Sanyo panels [RE-wrenches]

[Blair May]

Ray living in the Neast temp isnt an issue. I believe that this was an
issue last year but has been addressed?. The output per area @ the "PTC"
is quite good. Look at the CEC web site and look at the difference
between STC rating of panels like the ones made in Mass. Verses the
sanyo 195W modules. Racking, # of modules & labor costs usually offset
the lower cost of modules w/ less PTC.

WHy are you using Sanyo? I've heard so many issues (warranty, heat,  
etc) I wouldn't touch them, much less represent their product. What am I
missing? Are they that much cheaper? or better performance?
