<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Nathan,<br><br>I use BZ Products' MPPT250 and MPPT500 on portable PV power systems<br>that get used (and abused) for providing power at various environmental and<br>other events throughout the year. Been using them for about 6 years, and<br>still have them in service. (One MPPT250, four MPPT500.)<br><br>The MPPT250 had a digital display fail early on. BZ Products was *very*<br>prompt about sending a replacement MPPT (under warranty). Aside from<br>that, no issues.<br><br>I might add that these units get some [unintentional] rough treatment at times.<br><br><br><br>Dan<br><br><br><br>--- On <b>Wed, 4/10/13, Nathan Stumpff <i><Nathan@arcticsun-llc.com></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: Nathan Stumpff <Nathan@arcticsun-llc.com><br>Subject:
