Re: [RE-wrenches] counterfeit modules

I got sucked into installing something called "Sharp 250 A" a customer bought off line. (I think for under .80/watt.) I don't know all that much about Sharp, but these things seemed really chincy.. the glass moved inside the frame over 1/4". Seems way different than the last Sharps I installed. Made me wonder.

Just read in the French language version of Photon magazine that there have been counterfeit modules being peddled recently.

 

As in bogus Suntech, Yingl, Sharp and Trina mods.

 

Anyone come across these fakes here in the U.S.?
