Re: [RE-wrenches] DC SHW pumps

[Tom Duffy via RE-wrenches]

We have March pumps, the fellow who made Ivan pumps died

Tom Duffy
Senior Solar Design Engineer

As the world focuses on the Russian invasion of Ukraine and every day Americans 
start feeling the impacts of this conflict, there is growing consensus that we 
can no longer rely on foreign adversaries for our energy needs.
If we want to diversify our energy sources and reinforce American energy 
independence, encouraging solar and storage deployment and investing in 
domestic manufacturing is the best opportunity we have to double down on clean, 
and reliable energy.
Congress is considering federal budget legislation that invests in clean energy 
and makes a major dent in President Biden’s decarbonization goals. While this 
is an important opportunity to create jobs and expand solar accessibility, it’s 
also an opportunity to eliminate U.S. reliance on energy from countries that do 
not align with our national interests.

I have a customer with a (now obsolete) Hartell DC 1/2" X 1/2" MIP solar hot

Does anyone happen to have one of these in their inventory? Or can anyone

Re: [RE-wrenches] LG chem RESU battery replacements

[Matthew Sherald via RE-wrenches]

I have a customer who was told by LG that a replacement is available for her, 
but the return shipping box for the defective unit is not.  LG said they’d ship 
the new unit if the installer (me) agreed to store the defective unit in the 
intervening weeks until the return boxes were ready. LGs estimate on box 
availability was five weeks at earliest - that was about four weeks ago.
