I'm looking into solar panels for my home, anyone out there have any recommendation on vendors / installers in the Southern California / SCE area? Also, any positive or negative experiences you could share?
markcmann said:Great info, thanks to all three of you for your replies. Regarding the option of buying vs. leasing, what is a typical monthly payment (assuming this will depend of the amount of panels, etc.) but just in general?
Sparky55 said:We used PV4EVS.com they offer the new Hyper X solar panels that they say offers higher performance than over 100 of Sunpower's panel models and we went with Solaredge power optimizers instead of micro inverters for higher efficiency. We installed a 9.28 kW system on a canopy and charge both my wife's 2013 volt and my 2014 Spark. We purchased a Bosch 30 amp charger with an 18 foot cord. Wish we would have got the 25 foot cord model instead, but are otherwise happy with the Bosch unit.
