[RE-wrenches] Trina modules

[Chris Daum]

Hello Wrenches:
 
We have not only found Trinas to be a 'good deal', but their heavy duty
frames, wind and snow load specs suit our harsh Montana conditions just
fine.  Just my 2 cents worth.
 
We do like SMA though!  Not familiar with Solaredge.

Hi Eric,

We have experience with Solaredge.  We installed a dozen or so last year.
We liked the product and features. We did have initial problems with the
inverter shutting down on virtually of the units we installed.  Solaredge
sent us boards to swap out late last year and according to Berdner  the
issue was understood and corrected. The problem seemed to be isolated to
certain regions and conditions like ours. Since then we have had no issues. 

 

We have benchmarked the product against Enphase and it outperformed in
comparable field conditions and equipment. I assume you know that Schott is
out of the solar business so Trina would probably be a better bet.

Good luck.

 

Randy

Hi Wrenches -

 

I have a homeowner who is trying to save some money by going with Trina
modules instead of Schott and SolarEdge instead of SMA but he's concerned
about performance. I don't have enough experience with either of these
manufacturers to give him the peace of mind he seeks. I can confidently
recommend SMA and a handful of module makers but am having a hard time here.
Anyone with good or bad experiences with either Trina modules or SolarEdge
inverters?

 

Thanks!
