[RE-wrenches] SMA -11 designation

Morning,

The -11 designation on the 5-8kw US models is for Canada only at the moment.
The two biggest changes are:
	- Minimum temp is down to -40C.
	- The Windy Boy mode now works off of an infinite curve, not the 3 point power curve.

These changes will be incorporated to standard US models, probably by the end of the year.
If anyone has more questions, you can contact me off-line.

Thanks

Hi Carl,

I was told the 11 designation is a versioin designed for Canada (colder
whether).  I forget which parameters are changed, but they are generally
only available in Canada.
