With tighter margins, the temptation to go cheap and cheerful in terms of equipment is growing. Andy at Sibert is offering Afore inverters at cheaper prices with a ten year warrany. Zenex will be offering a 3.6k twin tracker with a ten year warranty for £500.00, thats over £200.00 less than a...
Got asked to day to quote for a "strip light" around three sides of a serving counter in a Chinese buffet. The area has a big commercial extractor hood, he either wanted lights along side it or on it. It drops down from the ceiling about 300-400mm. I don't want them on the hood so I suggested a...
Hey, a local Chinese takeaway that my pal works in has called and asked if I can wire in a new deep fat fryer. They are also asking for a certificate. I haven't seen the job yet but if it's just as simple as connecting a cooker (which I can't see why it wouldn't be) how can I give them a...
Will these be any issues running a Chinese 3 phase motor, 380v 50z motor on standard UK 3 phase mains?
Will be used for a few hours max each day
Are we likely to have over heating problems?
Would we be better off modifying the wiring/using a transformer of some kind? What are the likely...

Just had an email announcing 11.8% duty imposed from 6th Jun with a rise to 46.7% on 6th August. Will this really effect prices or have importers already covered this?
I was in my local Chinese takeaway talking to the owner, P'ting Twang Wing Wong. "Isn't it amazing how all Chinese children's names sound like the noise a spoon makes when you drop it on the floor" I said. "But my children's names are Eric and Edna !" he said. "Bi-lingual spoon made of steel...
I'm currently unemployed and thinking of having Solar PV installed on my roof so obviously I want the best system I can get for the least outlay. I have already received one quote of £3500 and I would like to ask members opinions on this. The System size is quoted as 1880 Watts and the panel...
hi, everyone. this is mechiel, a working staff in a Chinese solar company. I am quite confused with european and american motive of imposing an anti-dumping campaign. Is that really helpful to this industry of theri own? For those who knows little about China, they keep distorting China's image...
Hi,
Has anyone come across the Ultima solar hybrid panels? I have just come across a quote stating that a 3.84kW system will likely have an annual output of 5,333kWh per annum. This seems a bit optimistic, but I am not familiar with the technology and wondered if anyone here is?
cheers

Hi there
I've got access to panels that are made in Sweden, have a cell efficiency over 15% and can be mounted on the long or short side. Construction is very good quality. lead time is 4days on 235, 2 weeks on 240 or 245. This gives you the opportunity to offer Eurpean panels at a very...

Flew up to Beijing with the company yesterday for the Chinese New Year celebrations. The firework displays that started at midnight were to say the least out of this world and are still going on, may not be as spectacular as the initial displays but some are still quite impressive.
All us...
Given the lower feed in tariff I assume most are reverting to cheaper panels. How do we know which panels are best? Is there a list anywhere that rates PV panels. I have seen comments on this forum that says some panels are good and others are crap but it all seems to be a matter of opinion.
