Re: [RE-wrenches] Fix the Fluorescents: What about LED tubes for late 2012?

[Dean T. Newberry]

  
  
Hello Wrenches,
  We tested some Brand X T8 LED's two years ago. They've all burned
  out.
  We're now using Phillips "Enduraled" T8, 22W 120V lamps.
  I'm confident that they will respond to warranty issues when they
  arise.

  Regards Dean

  The brand of T8 LEDs I have in my shop is Neptune. When I purchased them them website had "buy American compliant" but they say made in China on them.

If you have never looked at LED panels, do find a sample to try. The 30cm x 30cm panels give a steady even light from a 1/4" thick panel. For under counters, dropped ceilings and work areas, they are just lovely. I expect to see a lot of creative uses for these in the near future.

Re: [RE-wrenches] Power One Microinverters

[Bruce]

Hi August.  I'm curious about these inverters as well.  Have you learned 
anything outside of the Wrenches list about their track record?


Take care.

Hi Wrenches -

Has anyone tried out the new Power One microinverters?

http://www.power-one.com/renewable-energy/products/solar/string-inverters/panel-products/aurora-micro/series-0

Seems like a similar concept to Enphase M215 as far as the trunk 
cabling goes. However, their monitoring device called "Aurora CDD" 
communicates wirelessly with the microinverters compared to power line 
communications with Enphase. They also seem to be at a higher price 
point compared to Enphase although they are higher wattage at 250 and 
300 Watts.


Best,

August
