[RE-wrenches] Iverters and their Manufacturers

[Tump]

Not sure if the companys are just using us the installers/customers as Beta
testers or what but the failure rate is getting higher.
 
Welcome to the world of solar!      they're a few of us who still remember
vapor ware from the early 90s

We have noticed we seem to be spending a lot of our time doing warranty work
as well. And it doesnt seem to be any one manufacturer. We have had a
Xantrex MPPT controller that was reading off by 6-7 volts. We have an
outback controller that wont sleep at night. We have had 2 Xantrex GT's die
as well as a remote monitor for one of them. We have had our share of
warranty issues with Magnum they are pretty good but expect any intaler to
pay list price to get a Replacement?
