Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

My employer (SunEdison Australia) is selling off a lot of new off-grid solar gear at clearance prices, which I put onto Gumtree etc to sell. I figure some of this gear would be useful for BYAPers who want to have solar powered systems or backups. Currently I've got the following PV panels listed for sale:

DAQO 10W Poly Solar Panels $13
DAQO 40W Poly Solar Panels $48
DAQO 60W Poly Solar Panels $55

These panels are in Brisbane and Melbourne, and can be picked up from the warehouses or freighted, details are on Gumtree:

10 & 40W http://www.gumtree.com.au/m-my-ad.html?adId=1093088587

60W http://www.gumtree.com.au/m-my-ad.html?adId=1093901249


Also a Morningstar 12V 4.5A PWM regulator for $25

There are a few other small regulators, but I haven't got them listed yet, but will add them here when I do.

Send me a PM or email for more info, freight quote etc

Would love ~4 60w panels, but i suspect the cost for Perth would be prohibitive...

Yes, freight from Bris to Perth wont be cheap, but I'll get some quotes to find out, it might not be too bad.

Thanks for sharing. The 60w panels look like they're usually $143 inc GST. Are they covered by the 6 year warranty on the product page below?

I also noticed the link was broken for the charge controller, might be this one?

Yes, the 6 year warranty still applies on all the Daqo panels..

No, thats a different charge controller of larger capacity, but it is one of my listings.

Try this one instead, the earlier link took me back to an editing page.

I'm still waiting on the freight quote to Perth.

$66 is the best quote so far, which isn't too bad.

..
Ever used E-GO. ?
..
.

I have, yes, and buyers are welcome to organise their own freight via E-go or anyone else.

That's actually not bad... Will shoot you a PM

Here's an interesting charge controller from Morningstar that has a number of night time program settings, handy if you want to turn your pump off (or not) overnight for different periods at different times of the year.
A rotary digital switch selects among 10 different load operation options, as per the diagram.

Not for the past few years!
