Re: [RE-wrenches] Sanyo problems

[Allan Sindelar]

I don't know my HIPs from my HITs either, but I don't think you're correct, Jason. I checked a bunch of pdfs of spec sheets for various Sanyo modules, and it just left me more confused. The Sanyo HIP-190BA3/195BA3/200BA3 is a single-face module from around 2006. On the spec sheet is written: "SANYO HIT1 solar cells are hybrids, made of thin mono crystal silicon surrounded by ultra-thin amorphous silicon layers....SANYO HIT solar panels have a black anodized aluminum frame, come pre-equipped with lead wires and plug-n-play connectors. The HIT Power 200 from 2008 has on its spec sheet "HIT Power 200 or HIP-200BA19"; also single-face. The HIT Power 215N is listed on the spec sheet as "HIT Power 215N or HIP-215NKHA5". The HIT Power 200A is only an HIT; the specs list it as "HIT Power 220A or HIT-N220A01", and there's no mention of HIP on the sheet. Enough already! Marco, can you send out the Photon article after all? I don't think you were mistaken. Maybe we have a real concern here after all.

"Heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin Layer" = HIT. What = HIP? Thanks for taking a moment to address this question. Marco & others: if anyone can find a Sanyo Tech Person who would join the Wrench List, it would help us all and probably also help Sanyo.
