What were the reasons Rocco avoided buying a cheap solar power system for his home?
Synopsis
When it comes to setting up solar systems, it's essential to ensure that you're comfortable with the products you're investing in. While it's tempting to opt for cheaper alternatives, they might not provide the desired outcome in the long run. Hence, you must consider the quality of the products over their price. Opting for cheap products can lead to issues later on, especially if the warranties aren't reliable.
Therefore, it's crucial to research the products and their warranties before investing in them. Some warranties might have question marks, and you might not find the dealers around when you need further assistance. It's better to opt for products that offer better wattage per panel and a reliable warranty. It's also essential to ask questions and read reviews before investing in a solar system.

I mean, there's a lot of cheap products out there, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it'll give you an end result that you need. It's no good going just on price alone, because if you do, you could end up with a situation later on. But when you do look for maybe warranty issues or when you do look to have further extensions done or whatever, you might find that the people aren't around. After investigating the panels and also having a look at the panels that I had, I felt they offered a better panel, it produced more wattage per panel. It also offered a much better warranty, and I think it was a more reliable warranty. There's some question marks on some of the warranties that are out in the marketplace, yes.
