Drake....As far as i know the power tolerance rating has gotten a bit better than they used to be.....I believe the floating glass inside the frame is a long standing design but I just haven't seen any other manu's doing that so it seems odd when carrying the module and the glass moves independent of the frame.... I like the idea of a rubber mallet to "knock the frame into shape".....but I dislike the idea of having to do this in the first place! Haven't had to do it for other manu's modules.... We have started to use the Sharp modules recently due to their reliable supply, lowest cost for US manufacturing, coupled with the idea that their company is relatively stable as far a supporting their warranties for the long haul..... Anyone have any other US modules they find to be of good quality, reliable supply, low cost and strong company foundation that values their installers? Cheers,
