solar pallet buy share..

[Fritz]

Good day, 

I am in the market to buy solar panels. in the range of +-260W

My local solar shop in centurion is running a special on a pallet of 26 x 260W panels @ R6.80 ex vat so R7.752 per watt

260 x R7.752 = R2015.52 per panel. 

At the moment i only need 9 panels. Is there anybody in the area Centurion/Pretoria that might want to take a share of the pallet?

let me know then we can save money when buying together. 

or if some know any other specials at the moment please advice.

I've been in that shop! In December of last year. Right across from Scamberlains... :-) One of the guys there built this really neat power-trailer using Victron equipment, had a really lekker chat with them.

Anyway, can't help you with the panels, just recognised the company.

Good price!

I would take 3 if it can be after the end of next month (budget constraint until then)

Can you find out the exact product spec, as I need to match these panels with my 300W panels in an array.

Are the these panels? http://www.jasolar.com/uploads/JAP6(BK) 60 240-260 3BB (1).pdf

yip, those are the ones, 

we need more number to makes this work, let's see how it goes.

more info attached. 

 

[DeepBass9]

OK, When are you planning to buy the pallet? Is there a cutoff date for the special?

9 + 3 = 12 so another 14 need to be spoken for....

 

[Fritz]

i will take 12 + 3 (DeepBass9) = 15

if we can get 11 more takers i will contact supplier for performa invoice to do a EFT.  

 or if you guys want to handle in cash we have to make arrangements. 

Total cost = R6.80 x 260 x 26 x vat = R52 403,52

 

ps: not sure if there is a time limit on the special. 

      i can still wait a couple of weeks before i "must" buy

just have a look DeepBass wants 300w and I think a palet comes in one size only (260w in the advert)

[Fritz]

@DeepBass9 are you aware of the fact that they are 260W panels. You have to connect them in parallel to your 300W string.

So hopefully your Vmp total matches.

3 of these 260w panels in series will operate optimal @ 30.63Vmp   x 3 = Vmpt =91.89V    I= 8.49A

[DeepBass9]

Yup, I will add 3 in a parallel string with the other panels. the specs are close enough.

[Jaco De Jongh]

@Fritz. Where about are you. I will take 6, depending on where you stay.

[Fritz]

@Jaco de Jongh, I stay in Amberfield , Centurion

[Jaco De Jongh]

@Fritz, Thanks, then you can count me in.

[Energy-Jason]

Fantastic Guys, Makes me super proud. This is what this forum is for! Sharing resources and making solar affordable. Good luck with the buy.

Well done.

Sincerely

Jason

[Jaco De Jongh]

@Fritz. A friend wants 2. So it seems like we only need a buyer for 3 .. 

Hope we can find someone soon, this is a good price.

 

Edit: I will take a total of 9. need another one. (2 to go)

[KLEVA]

Am I too late to get in on this?

I am looking for 3 or 6 if still available - Will still have to figure out how I get to Durban, but that's a different fight...

[KLEVA]

From the response, maybe 2 pallets needed

[Jaco De Jongh]

@KLEVA , I can drop one on my order to allow you to have 3. Will that help. the last one I added is for a loose standing 12 volt system, that I can still do without. If you are interested , I can do it that way. and that will close the deal for all involved. 

[Fritz]

Ok,

9fritz +  3deepbass9 + 9 jaco + 5  kleva = 26

i can drop 1 if you really want 6 @KLEVA

Unfortunately i cant help you guys with delivery but i can keep it safe at my place for collection or we collect together at the shop.

please drop me a mail so that we can arrange payment and what will work the best for everyone. [email protected]

[KLEVA]

Thanks guys,

I am in (for 3 or 6 whichever works). I will make a plan with collection from where-ever. Been battling to get that voltage and wattage to match my existing, so just let me know via PM about money and where to collect.

@Fritz - Will PM you email and contact info.

[Chris Hobson]

That boys was superb. What this forum is all about.

[krugeran58]

Hi Fritz I'm looking for 10x 260w is there still an opening.  Know the shop was there to get a quote ... which came to R10.x really would like to get your price. Please let me know

[Fritz]

@DeepBass9 , can you send me your details if you still in because we have enough number to buy now. 

@krugeran58, we have to keep you on the side line as reserve if someone else dont come through. 

 

[Fritz]

1 pallet was completed. 

Thanks guys, maybe we can have another run next month. 

 

 

[KLEVA]

Ok, so @krugeran58, myself and @DeepBass9 are still in market. Going for second pallet:

KLEVA  - 3 or 6
krugeran58 - 10
DeepBass9 - 3
So we up to 16/19, 10/7 more to go...

[DeepBass9]

Cool, I,m still in, are you organising the payment for this pallet or is Fritz still the point man?
