<p class=MsoNormal>Greetings, all~ A client has some Photowatt 72 cell
modules--PW1000 is the model if I remember correctly. The client wants to have
a warranty related chat with Photowatt, but they left the US market some time
ago. <br>
<br>
Can anyone supply proper contact information for the mother ship in France?<br>

Thanks,<br>
