unisolar apparently discontinues framed modules including 64

Posted by James Cormican on January 10, 2008, 04:46:54 PM

We have heard from suppliers that unisolar will be discontinuing framed modules including the 64w and eco-series 62w modules.

many folks have these installed in their systems and they are wildly popular. if you have an existing array or were interested in one of these, you may want to act sooner than later to source one, whether from us or somewhere else.

our supply as well as the supply at north american suppliers is either gone or running low.

if anybody know more details regarding the issue or can find a press release link, that would be great if you could post.

cheers,

James
I was very curious on what was going on ,as I found it hard to locate some to finish my small array. However they were found, at a very good price.

Also was noticing that many sites visited online were not listing them anymore. Mine are working tremendously and I am very satisfied.

Thank you Alternative energy store, for your help in getting my system together.

hey,you're welcome. we were astonished that they killed such a beloved product. to find them now it is a wild goose chase through folks who dont yet know, or have a pile in a warehouse. the 62, 5, and 11 are still available, but 64 have been unobtainable to us Sad

I called Unisolar today but only getting voice mailboxes.
As soon as they give me a holler back (hopefully)
We will let you know.

The last two panels obtained were off Ebay Express from an individual named "Digitallimits".
Must say, the man was excellent with the whole deal.
but they were the only two available at the time on an Ebay search.Think i searched the whole web on availability that day.

Very nice of you James, to let people know whats going on
and pretty timely .
Thanks

Hello Again

Apparently Unisolar does not return phone calls .
For some reason, it seemed that would be the case when i called.

Anyway, My guess is they are going to stop making panels with junction boxes due to the new ul/nec code.Which i am led to believe goes for any panel 60w or larger. New code they need the MC connectors.If somebody has a copy of the new code in may be in there.

This is all assumption.
