Friends:
I have noticed the new verbiage on the vice line but as of yet I have not been denied tech support due to the age of the equipment. By the way, I called Fronius tech support yesterday for the first time in quite a while about 3 dead IG inverters (no surprise to me). Fronius was willing to start the conversation but the call mysteriously dropped a few minutes in and I could not reconnect… William Miller Solar 17395 Oak Road, Atascadero, CA 93422 805-438-5600 www.millersolar.com CA Lic. 773985 *From:* RE-wrenches [mailto:[email protected]] *On Behalf Of *John Blittersdorf via RE-wrenches *Sent:* Thursday, February 22, 2024 5:46 AM *To:* RE-wrenches *Cc:* John Blittersdorf *Subject:* Re: [RE-wrenches] Outback Board Repair I just tried to get Outback tech support and the message was if the product is under warranty, stay on the line for next available rep. If not warranty. contact Zonna Energy or NAZ Solar !!!!!

You could ask Glenn Hall, he'd be able to say if he's heard anything about hiring a new tech. Of course finding someone with much off grid experience would be hard. Glenn and Alex do have some experience and may be able to help out. Brad On Wed, Feb 21, 2024 at 12:15 PM Nick A Lucchese via RE-wrenches < [email protected]> wrote: Zonna is a dependable resource. I often find they have more repair boards and parts in their inventory than Outback does themselves. Whether the older legacy boards or newer VFXR series, Zonna has them. I think of them as the off grid distributor solution provider that AEE used to be known for. Bradley B., has AEE made any effort to hire anyone that can attempt to offer the type of support and knowledge you were known for? Perhaps this is the reason they are phasing out Outback? Wallace, am I understanding correctly that they now offer repair services or refurbished board sets? I’ve only purchased new from them in the past and last time it seemed Kris Stone was perhaps too overburdened for an expedient repair solution. Judging by the amount of failures myself or other off grid focused Outback dealers out there I imagine Kris would be tied up for years! Not trying to throw any negativity towards Outback as I know many are trying to deal with growing pains and providing sufficient support but it can certainly be painful at times. Really looking forward to going all in on Midnite’s newest offerings once they get the comms box out. Really loving the Barcelona and Rosie so far.

Thats zone-ah I sent them a faulty radian stack after they sent me a repaired one. 330-674-1750. Ask for Amos or Ext. 2. zonnaenergy.com On Feb 21, 2024, at 11:00 AM, Matt Sherald via RE-wrenches < [email protected]> wrote: Hi All, I'm looking to move along some damaged Outback (GVFX and VFX) boards. I found an older thread referencing Kris Stone, but didn't have luck with the email. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
