I would suggest you call Sun Elctric and see if they even have any in stock , if so grab what you can !

There is a severe module shortage in the making right now ... The demand from German is using all available production. Spain is set to kick of a program as well ... The US is so far behind the curve on this ... we will be getting nothing but crumbs .... The falling US dollar isn't helping things either !

Buy your panels now , or you won't being doing PV this year !

Read the thread on module shortages on the below link ... these are all seasoned installers or owners of the big sites that sell PV produts adding their 2 cents
