😬You got the service call. Then you realized it's a Zep system.

Good news: we've got you covered!

Proud father moment for me last week.
Took my boys out to assist on the install of a 20 kW ground mount system. This was their first install and they killed it.

After being in the solar industry for most of my working career, it is rare that I get to experience something new for the first time. This past week, I had the pleasure of doing something I have always dreamed about, I installed my first solar array with my two boys by my side.

My boys have grown up watching the solar industry provide for our family. They have seen the long days, the hard work, the travel, the ups and downs, and everything that comes with building a life in this industry. But this time they were not just watching from the sidelines. They got to build the array from scratch, slap some glass, have some laughs, and feel the satisfaction of building a small energy production system. Watching them work made me so proud, but seeing them enjoy the process as much as I always have, meant more to me than I can explain.

Solar has given me a lot over the years, but this one was different. This was not just another project, this was a proud dad moment, a full circle moment, and a memory I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

💦🤖 Tried out a new cleaning robot.

Review:
• Works best on non-staggered layouts
• Battery lasts about 4 hours on one charge
• Lightweight & easy to handle
• Waterless design useful for remote locations

Overall:
Best suited for carport and ground mount arrays
This isn't going to provide a deep scrub, but does a great job keeping dust buildup at bay.

But wait . . . there's more to our 4th of July sale.

Yesterday we told you about the BOGO deal, but we're not stopping there.

For July 4th only, our 3.5Nm torque-limited S**T is also 25% off.

This version is built specifically to replace the Wera pistol grip setup, giving installers a more ergonomic, consistent, and reliable way to torque solar connectors in the field.

Same S**T family. Different version built for torque control.

Compatible with both MC4 and H4.

If your current connector setup feels clunky, awkward, or like it requires too many pieces to get the job done, this one's for you.

25% off. July 4th only.

🇺🇸 Our annual 4th of July sale is back, and this year it's a BOGO 🇺🇸

For July 4th only, buy one Solar Connector Assembly Tool and get one free.

That means one for you and one for the installer who keeps “borrowing” yours.

The S**T was designed to make solar connector assembly faster, easier, and way less annoying than fighting with spanner wrenches in the field. And it's compatible with both MC4 and H4.

Available July 4th only so mark your calendar now!

Solar connector assembly shouldn't be complicated. So we did something about it.

Why use a torque tool + accessories when one purpose-built tool does the job?

In this head-to-head comparison, we show what it takes to assemble solar connectors with the commonly used Wera pistol grip torque setup versus our torque-calibrated handheld Solar Connector Assembly Tool.

Bonus: Works with both MC4 and H4 connectors.

And because there's always one in the comment thread, Staubli does not require the use of the pistol grip torque tool, they simply state it is recommended. And the only reason it's recommended, is because it has been the only option. Until now.

Want the secret to staging solar panels faster? 🤫

It's the Solar Panel Hanger.

Yup, the same tool that sets and mounts modules, can help with staging too.

In this quick tutorial, we show how easy it is to reconfigure the Panel Hanger for staging panels on your next rooftop install.

Say goodbye to rail stuffing, because the Solar Panel Hanger lets you create clean, organized stacks near the install point.

It's a simple way to keep the jobsite more organized while helping make rooftop solar installs faster, safer, and easier.

Removing the Solar Panel Hanger is simple once you know the trick: turn it left before pulling down.

In this tutorial, we show how the tool disengages from underneath the module after the solar panel has been squared up and mounted to the rail. And yes, that "clear solar panel" is just plexiglass so you can actually see what's happening (we've been asked before, so just setting things straight from the start 😂)

In other words, use the old "lefty loosey" trick and you're good to go.

Want a faster, more consistent way to set panel overhang across an array?

In this quick tutorial, we show how to use cantilever adjustments on the Solar Panel Hanger XL to set your desired overhang once, then repeat it consistently as you continue laying panels down the line.

This gives installers a more efficient, streamlined method for maintaining consistent panel placement in either portrait or landscape orientation.

Added bonus our newest XL version extends out an extra 5 inches, accommodating modules up to 72 cells and includes a support foot for added stability and strength when working with larger, heaver panels.
