Chattering Teeth
(11-11-2009)
Professionals in the solar power industry are finally
beginning
to come forward with opinion about Chinese manufactured solar modules.
It's not all that politically correct these days to criticize
Chinese products, maybe because they carry loans on so much of the US
economy and build nearly everything we buy. The buzz is that
some
Chinese solar panels use inferior silicon, which cracks and degrades
quickly compared with other brands. Their manufacturing and
power
rating tolerances are poor and their power output may drop within a
short time after installation. "You get what you pay for."
Sounds like something my Grandpa might have said, and he
would
have been right. Part of the appeal of solar power is the
long
life of the modules, so it seems like a shot in the foot to buy cheap
panels that don't last.
(09-06-2009) Wow, it's been a
crazy summer for me. Death of family members, lots of travel
and
unpleasant things to be taken care of. Many thanks to my great
customers who have been so kind, understanding and patient as I've had
to conduct business while away from my office. Website
construction goals and updates are way behind schedule, but life goes
on.

I guess I'm not that embarrassed to admit that a couple of
years
ago I didn't know what a blog was. I'm not that keen on
inviting
newly coined words to my vocabulary when there are plenty of
serviceable substitutes already in existence. So "blog"
simply
isn't a word that I need that much, particularly since I seem to find
plenty of other activities to fill the hours of my day instead of
reading the limitless volume of crackpot opinion that seems to abound
on the internet. But life has a strange way of reminding us
to be
flexible in our viewpoints, and here I am writing the first installment
of what will most likely be considered a BLOG page, or crackpot opinion
by someone's standard. Please forgive me if this is the last
time I use the word "blog".
(01-12-2011) I guess this entry should tell you how much time I've
found (or made) to write silliness on this page. Big news is that we
launched a secondary website last month that focuses primarily on the
electronics of off-grid power systems. Check it out at InverterPowerCenter.com
to see how my web skills have evolved (not very much really). We are
also scheduled to launch a completely re-designed version of this site
early in 2011. Hopefully that means that it is only a few weeks away.
It will offer more products and a more up-to-date navigation system.
Eventually we might even make it possible to buy directly from the
site, in case you just want to order products without talking to us...
