Prices On The Highest Performance Solar Products
On The Planet.
If you've been thinking about eliminating your electric bill with a grid tie solar system for your home or business,
it's now time to celebrate ! After nearly a
year of debates and nine previous attempts, Congress
finally approved a bill that not only
extends the Federal 30% tax credit for solar
but also removes the $2,000.00 cap that
existed on the previous residential tax
credit. That's an
incredible 30% with no cap for residential
and commercial installations !
A Solar System May
Actually Increase Your Home's Resale Value
According to a recent study by ICF
Consulting (funded by HUD and the EPA) energy
saving measures such as solar can add $20 of
home value for every $1 of yearly energy cost savings.
We're
One Of The Oldest Most Trusted Companies In The
Solar Electric Industry
This website was created by one of the oldest, most trusted names in the solar industry.
Take a look at our
history and you'll find that we've been
selling top of the line solar products directly
to the public far longer than Home Depot®,
BP Solar®,
Sunpower®
and GE Solar®.
In fact when it comes to experience, we've been
in the solar electric business longer than 98%
of the solar companies in business today.
Why Do We Post Our System Prices
While Our Competitors Simply Refuse To ?
While some brands only offer a 20 or less warranty. The solar panels that are used in these Off Grid Solar, Inc.
come with a 25 year manufacturer's warranty. These
SolarEdge inverters come with a 20 year factory warranty, which are among the longest warranties in the industry.
These solar panels use solar cells that have been cut from solid ingots of silicon.
When
shopping for solar panels, always insist on
solar panels that use solar cells that have
been cut from a solid silicon ingot.
Many of the solar panels that are on the
market that use solar cells that are not cut
from solid silicon ingots may offer far lower
efficiencies, poorer tolerances or lesser warranties.
No thin film, ribbons, bows or strings attached.
Learn About The Potential Weak Link That
Exists In Many Of Our Competitor's Solar
Systems. This Is Something That You Should
Absolutely Be
Aware Of Before Spending A Dime On Any
Solar System !
In an effort to be more competitive, many
dealers have resorted to offering thin light
duty mounting rails that require many more
roof penetrations, solar panels with poorer per Watt PTC ratings and lesser warranties and or solar panels that use cells that are not cut from a solid ingot of silicon.
Here at Off Grid Solar, Inc.
we never skimp on quality. Every system that we sell includes only the very best heavy duty components available on today's market.
And that's not just talk. In a side by side comparison we'll prove why our name brand top of the line equipment outperforms the competition hands down at a price that can't be beat.
No Toxic Lead Solder Or Cadmium Over The Roof Of
Your Home
We're beginning to notice a
disturbing trend where existing manufacturers
are continuing to use toxic lead solder and several new
manufacturers are introducing the known
carcinogen Cadmium in their solar panel
construction.
Mitsubishi Electric uses no lead solder or cadmium in their solar panels.
Your Solar Investment Is Only As Secure As The
Mounting System That You Choose.
That's Why We Chose HatiCon Mounting
Solutions For Our High Performance Solar
Systems.
Strong Box Beam Mounting Rails
Box beams
have a long proven history in the construction
industry. The box beam's efficient load bearing
design lends itself perfectly
for securing your
investment into solar onto your roof's surface.
Low Cost, Light Weight C Shaped Rails Without A Factory Warranty Are Not Permitted In Any Of Our Systems.
The C shaped rail
that many other dealers offer provides a
flimsier design and don't even come with a
factory warranty. To prove our point ask your
dealer to provide a sample of their C shaped mounting rail. Lay the sample on its side and
simply stand on it.
Note what happens to this
rail. Next try the same thing with a box beam rail from HatiCon and you'll know right away
which design offers you more piece of mind.
Because many C shaped rails
use far less aluminum, the result is a flimsier
design which will require many more holes
drilled into your roof to provide the rigidity
that is necessary to support the solar panels.
Drilling more holes into your roof can increase
labor costs as well as increase the risk of a leak.
Also HatiCon's tall rail provides more air flow
for increased cooling. Solar electric panels
work off of light not heat. Heat is a solar
panel's worst enemy, the cooler a solar panels
is, the more power it will produce.
Always ask your dealer to show you a sample of the mounting rails the he's going to use on your roof. ******
Important: If you've been provided with a quote
with no mention of the brand or model
number of the mounting system that your dealer
is using, then the dealer is probably trying to
sell you the cheapest available racks on the
market. This is a common practice amongst less
reputable dealers. Always demand to see a
full list of material including brands and
models and ALWAYS ask for a copy of the
mounting system's factory warranty.

thinking about your energy budget as a whole.
You
can't make your own gasoline and you can't make your
own natural gas, but now you CAN make your
own electricity. And the best part about it is that
the fuel to make own electricity falls from the sky everyday for free.
Thousands of utility customers throughout the U.S., who were tired of the high
cost of electricity have taken advantage of the huge rebates and tax credits
which are available for the installation of solar energy systems on their homes
and businesses.
For example, Southern California Edison is currently offering a cash rebate of up to $650.00 per AC kilowatt. And the Federal Government is offering a
30% tax credit
with absolutely no cap residential and commercial applications. And unlike like the old solar energy systems of yesteryear that only produced hot water, these new systems actually produce electricity ! Clean reliable electricity to run lights,
TVs, pumps, refrigerators, computers and many other appliances, all with free energy from the Sun.
The staff here at Off Grid Solar, Inc.
are experts in the design and implementation of systems that qualify for
many State rebate programs. We offer free assistance in the design of your system and can even assist you with the submission of your application to your State.
Depending on the size system you choose and the number of loads you have running during the day, it is actually possible watch the power company's meter run backwards.
"The single most
important criteria when choosing a solar panel is not price nor is it
performance. It's the financial strength of the manufacturer behind the solar
panel's guarantee."
Thousands of U.S. consumers
will make the same mistake this Summer that so many have made in the past of
trying to save a few pennies per Watt by buying non name brand solar panels
without ever looking into the manufacturer's history or even its current
financial status.
Ask any alternative energy engineer,
installer or dealer and they'll all tell you the same thing. Outback
inverters are built to last !
Outback's legendary design has now proven itself in
one of the most harshest environments on the planet, the Iraqi battlefield !
Read what Master Gunnery Sergeant Larter of the US
Marine Corp. had to say about the performance of Outback's VFX3524M Pure Sine
Wave Inverter.
My Explosive
Ordnance Disposal (Bomb Squad) unit bought 20 VFX3524M late last year just
prior to re-deploying to Iraq and they are performing flawlessly.
Last year during OIF we were using commercial XXXXXXXX* and XXXXXXXX*
inverters to recharge batteries and power our equipment, but we had problems
with durability. When we got back to the states we researched and dicovered
the Outback family of inverters. Robin was kind enough to send out two
samples for us to test. He sent a VFX3524M and a FX2024M w/turbo. Both
worked great, but we decided on the 3524 due to our power requirements.
After a long drawn out battle we received authorization to buy one for each
of our vehicles.
After arriving in country and waiting for all of our gear to arrive we were
finally able to wire and mount our inverters. We used 25' slave cables to
connect to the power receptacle on the HMMWV and then cut a 100' heavy duty
extension cord to wire them in with. For the AC-in 25' and the AC-out 75'.
Then we plug in a power strip to connect everything. With the 75' cord we
can run power out quite a ways and if we need just a little more the slave
cable allows us another 25'.
We use them to recharge our robots, computers, power tools and myriad other
electronics. So far they have proven extremely reliable and all of my teams
swear by them.
Thanks guys for making something "Marine Proof."

Under this inverter's tough,
cast aluminum skin you'll find more muscle than a Schwarzenegger movie and the
latest in microprocessor based brains to deliver that raw power with the
precision of a perfect sine wave.
The FX series inverter started
and continues to lead the revolution in advanced DC to AC inverter design. With
it's unique, sealed, gasketed, die-cast aluminum casing, it's virtually
impervious to the major causes of inverter failure. Contaminants such as
moisture, dirt, insects and small animals which would spell death to an ordinary
inverter, can't touch this beauty !
The OutBack true sinewave inverter/charger is a complete power solution. It
incorporates a DC to AC sinewave inverter, battery charger and AC transfer
switch housed within a die-cast aluminum chassis. Intelligent multistage battery
charging runs your generator less, and prolongs the life of your batteries.
Built-in networked communications enables multiple units to be stacked and
connected with other OutBack power electronics providing industry leading
integration and near infinite application flexibility. The exclusive modular
system architecture means that increased power output is just an additional
inverter/charger away. Their flagship FX series uses a sealed chassis
that can operate in the harshest environmental conditions such as high humidity
and corrosive salt air. The VFX series uses a vented chassis with "bug
proof" screened openings that allow high output AC power in the hottest of
operating conditions.
OutBack Power inverter/chargers are the only choice when you need a true
sinewave, powerful, modular and reliable power solution for your home, business
or extreme application.
We've taken Outback's unbeatable
U.S. made craftsmanship and reliability a step
further by adding one of the world's highest
performance solar panels
available.
When it comes to purchasing a solar system
for your home or business it is crucial that
you take a very close look at the solar
panels that the dealer is offering you.
After all, solar panels are the workhorse of any solar system. Far too many consumers simply purchase what ever it is that a dealer
happens to have available without even looking at a specification sheet. Performance that is lacking by just a few percentage points or
an inferior warranty can make all the difference in the world over the expected
life of a solar panel.
With more than
twelve years of experience operating our own state of the art, in-house solar repair
center, we know what technologies perform well in the real world and what
technologies do not.
Over
the years, we've seen expensive, name
brand, solar panels fail only after a
few months worth of use. We've even seen
popular U.S. made solar panels fail soon
after the manufacturer closed its doors
leaving its customers with no warranty.
This is
why it is important that you choose a
solar panel manufacturer that is well
established in the industry and has the
financial strength to be there if the
need arises. This is exactly why we
chose Mitsubishi Electric for our
Ballistic
series solar systems.
Anyone can build a
solar panel that works here on Earth, now strap that same solar panel to a
rocket that subjects it to 8 Gs of bone jarring thrust and then expose it to
high energy cosmic rays as well as temperatures that can soar as high as 300oC
and now you have engineered a solar panel.
That's exactly
the type of expertise that has been
perfected by Mitsubishi Electric
engineers that began when
they established their space satellite business more than 30 years ago.
Building
on that experience and utilizing the latest state of the art patented
process for manufacturing multi-crystalline silicon, Mitsubishi Electric
has achieved real world efficiencies, tolerance levels
and reliability that was once thought to be impossible. And unlike other manufacturers they did it without using toxic lead solder in their panels.
Since 1974 Mitsubishi Electric is one of the oldest and most trusted names in the industry.
Because Mitsubishi Electric
cares about the environment they use absolutely no toxic lead solder in the manufacture
of their solar panels. Instead they use silver electrodes which not only
protects our precious environment but also enhances efficiency which is why
Mitsubishi solar panels outperforms many of their competitors and gives you a
bigger rebate at a better price per watt. A typical conventional 3 kW solar
array uses up to 864,000 milligrams of lead. A Mitsubishi 3 kW array uses Zero lead solder.
Thin
might be in when it comes to
waistlines and the latest HDTV sets but
when it comes to securing the bulk of
your investment to the roof of your home
you want the strongest mounting system
made out of the highest quality aircraft grade aluminum that money can buy.
The engineers at HatiCon
understand this premise and we do too so
we've added the finest mounting rack systems available today. HatiCon Solar Mounting Systems are unsurpassed in quality
and durability, rated to withstand up to 110 miles per hour wind speeds, HatiCon Solar Mounting Systems are engineered to last a lifetime.
Finally we top off our systems with the best price that you'll find anywhere. In fact, we're so sure that ours is the best deal available, that we'll beat any nationally advertised price on our same, in stock, top of the line systems or your system is free.
Unlike other dealers that will sell you a
barebones system, our premium quality kits include everything you see listed above.
