I have tried for 9 years to open an account with Kyocera and have always been told, "we are not accepting new dealers"... blah, blah, blah. Even though we have a retail store that sells dozens of items they stock and we are right in their back yard, I can't buy from them. Now they are drumming up business. That's just odd.<div><br><div>

We weren't affected, as Kyocera has never been more than a minor supplier since Photocomm/Golden Genesis days. But I was recently cold-contacted by their new sales rep for our region, seeking to drum up possible business. I responded by inquiring about this issue. In my opinion, his response was pretty honest and direct, so when I called yesterday about a few small 12V modules, I asked if I could share it with the list, and he welcomed it.<br>Allan<br><br><b>Allan Sindelar</b><br><span style="font-size: 10pt; "><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:Allan@positiveenergysolar.com" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; "><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); ">Allan@positiveenergysolar.com</span></a></span><br><span style="font-size: 10pt; ">NABCEP Certified Photovoltaic Installer<br>NABCEP Certified Technical Sales Professional<br>New Mexico EE98J Journeyman Electrician<br><b>Positive Energy, Inc.</b><br>3201 Calle Marie<br>Santa Fe, New Mexico 87507<br><b>505 424-1112</b><br><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.positiveenergysolar.com/" target="_blank" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; ">www.positiveenergysolar.com</a></span><br><br><br></div></span></blockquote></div><br></div></div></body></html>
