No direct experience.  Reviews are pretty good. 

You need to do a pretty good power use survey, know what you need.
Use quality components that you can get service and support on wherever you might be.
Have reasonable expectations for performance.
Whatever gets done make sure you get a detailed plan, a wiring diagram and an understanding of how it works.

Lots of folks on the Forum have had this done or have done it themselves.  The more you understand about these systems the better choices you can make about yours.

Art-I had my solar put on by Solar Mike in Slab City several years ago.  We talked about what I wanted, he worked up his recomendation, I had him install it and it has worked great ever since.  I would highly recommend him.        ^.^d

There are some bad apples out there so good recommendations are far better than none.
Solar was one of the best investments I ever made.
