Hello all,
I have just been speaking with one of my suppliers and i have been told that the Sharp NU-R250(J5) modules are being discontinued in favor of the Sharp ND 250 Poly modules. I have noticed that they both have the same efficiency but the polys are cheaper, is this the reason why they...

Hi guys,
Anybody used a 7 watt led bulb? Any comments on the light quality? I've tried a 6 watt Aurora bulb which was sold to me as a 50 watt equivalent. It isn't awful, but it is definitely not equivalent to 50 watts. Also, if anyone is involved in r+d
on led bulbs are you expecting to...

I did the C&G2399 last week (hmmmm), anyway, the demo modules we used were manufactured by Sharp and had two locators on the underside of the panel which sat against the lower rail then the modules were secured by the spacer fixings between each other and an end clamp at each end.

Does anyone know of any MCS accredited flexible thin film products?
I'm quoting for a 150kW PV system on a factory with a curved roof. It would be the most simple solution.
They seem to be mainly used in America. Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

To follow on from a rant a few weeks ago, does anybody else get the hump at having to pay £15 to search through a drop down menu of every single MCS registered PV product to find the panels they've just installed?
Or am I doing it wrong! Took me 10 mins on Wednesday to find one, its just taken...
Hi
I am drawing up a quote for a PV system. The property is a double bay semi detached property with a small dormer rafter pitch at the front, which is the south facing aspect of the roof. Due to the dormer pitch, we can only fit 5 x 195w panels, in a staggered formation, onto this south facing...
