Two weeks in. My only real "issue", is a minor one, the green light indicates that the battery is solar charging does not seem to work. I took out the tamper proof allen screws from the panel, and replaced with standard philips head screws. I found the panel is producing power and gets to the led, but the led doesn't illuminate. Almost looks like someone tried to re-solder the led to the mini circuit board it's on. I don't need the light, but wonder if they sell a replacement board and LED. I swear I read somebody has had the problem recently.
I have not seen the lED light up on mine either. I havent been up there, but i am guessing its a small panel on the A?C which is probably only good for trickle charging. I plan to put at least 100 Watts up there.
I took the information off the panel a couple of years ago but the manufacture never answered me. Failure of the unit seems to be a common problem. Ended up fitting a new small unit above the panel to control the roof solar panel and wired into the existing sytem having completly removed the exisiting neon unit with charge contol.
