Sales Engineer from Boulder, CO

I figured I take some lumps for my reply. But I've installed 8 systems and sold 6 others. I still don't like the breaker box but solar doesn't have to be too difficult. Politician? I prefer do-it-yourselfer...

Physical Engineer - definitely not. I've taken 3 or 4 classes with SEI and have my NABCEP certificate of knowledge but I am not NABCEP certified.

So you have no experience, license, education, or knowledge selling the stuff? Sounds like you need to be in politics.

More technical question.

Thanks for the responses.

Again i need your help to reply at:

Thanks in advance.

Physical Engineer - definitely not. I've taken 3 or 4 classes with SEI and have my NABCEP certificate of knowledge but I am not NABCEP certified. Most of my career has been working as a QA Engineer - mostly database stuff. I wanted to get out an interact more with people and am enjoying work again with SolarTown!

At this point I would say 'no' - the M190s are still around $195/each, but there is a new D380 that connects two panels at a time. I haven't installed any yet but I think its a good sweet spot - SolarTown sells them for $379. As I understand it, the twin packs have all the benefits of single panel microinverters but you only install half as many on an array. We had a bad panel fail on a customer installation and it was easy to start the RMA/return process with the manufacturer thanks to the data on the Enphase site.

Howdy all - this is my first post on Solarpaneltalk.com. I work as a Sales Engineer for Solartown.com and have been working in the industry for the past year. We can provide systems to do-it-yourselfers across the country. I'm a big fan of Enphase's micro-inverters and you can see how my system is performing here: http://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com/p...stems/GGkg2993. I've learned a lot this year and I enjoy learning new things. I hope this forum will help us all learn more about solar energy - how to design it, install it, and make a meaningful contribution to future generations!

As sales engineer, do you have a degree in marketing or is it electronics ? Just wondering what level to converse with you at.
Welcome to the board, and we'll have a fine time learning.
