By the way, William, have you looked at the SMA Fuel Saver solutions? I am proposing that technology for an industrial customer whose plant runs entirely off generators.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<p><font face="Arial">Friends:<br><br>I am a bit surprised at the responses I have
gotten on this thread. I appreciate the technical advice and I don't mind
the polite philosophical discussion like the one below. However, I
received one reply, fortunately off-line, that was not very polite, to
say the least.<br><br>I have been advised to abandon the clients that don't fit
someone's criteria of green living. I don't think this is appropriate
advice, especially if the adviser does not know what the whole story
is. <br><br>For example, one of the aforementioned clients was sold a bill
of goods by a now defunct local installer. He retired, bought the property,
moved in with a generator and then waited way too long for the scam artist to
build a system that would "power everything with the rays of the
sun."</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Tens of thousands of dollars later the client fired the
scammer and asked me to help as best I could. He is on a fixed income, he
lives with extended family, the daughter has severe health problems, the son in
law is out of work, etc.. My client is in a tight situation, with no
good choices. </font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">Yes, I could tell the guy f*** you, you don't meet my
standards. But I am not that kind of person. I am trying to help
the customer get by as best he can by working as a team. This, my
friends, is the professional and humane thing to do, and I make no
apologies.</font></p>

necessarily the greenest people, they are the ones that reduce consumption as
best they can, do their homework, trust me and pay on time.</font></font></p>

Assist<br><br></div><div>Honestly, William, in these type of cases I usually walk away from
the job if the customer isn't willing to reduce where possible. There is no such
thing as a completely fool proof off grid PV system. Like a good lawyer, the
best way to have a stellar record is to know which cases to take....just one
man's opinion of course, but we get approached for many systems like this,
particularly in the Caribbean and I have learned that there is such a thing as a
good solar customer and also a bad solar
customer.<br><br>Daryl<br><br></div></font><br><p></p></div>
