[RE-wrenches] Pro Harvest Inverters (Formerly HI-Q)

[Blake Gleason]

We have installed 500-1,000 of them (both 208V and 480V).  They are great,
EXCEPT for reliability.  We have some jobs with 30+ inverters, on which we
have over 100% replacement rate (ie, all inverters have been replaced, and
at least some of the replacements have also been replaced).  Hi-Q has been
trying to learn from the various failure modes, and gradually making
improvements to reliability.  If they ever get to the point of a reasonable
failure rate, it could be a great product.
