Update: Ordered another.
Using to power my MIghty Mule MM317W. I have two gates, one running off a 5W GTO array.
This one seems to be similar quality and puts out twice the watts for 20% of the price.
However you have to buy a mast or make one. I bent a 1/2" EMT tube to 45 degrees and used 1/2" EMT 2 hole clamps. For my location, a more shallow angle would be appropriate to compensate for summer angles, but for as much power that is required, it really does not matter when pointing to the South.
I drilled thru the clamp and the mast and inserted sheet metal screws to keep it from twisting in the clamps. Has sustained 35mph wind so far.
I do not think Eco-Worthy should ship the wires stripped. Too easy to short out. I cut the bare ends off until I was ready to terminate to avoid shorts, and covered the array until it was connected.
Shipped in a thin un-padded bag. I hate that. Bad protection especially for glass. Fortunately the manufacturers box was adequate this time and USPS handled it with appropriate care.
