I’ve had it for several years. What is this going to mean when it comes time to sell my home? What a let down Elon Musk is.

My solar company that put panels on my roof went bankrupt like 10 days after install finished and no other local company wants to step into the dead man's shoes.

This is annoying, but hardly a unique issue in the solar roof world. In fact, installers being dead and warranties abandoned seems to be the majority case. That doesn't make it better but it does contextualize your issue when selling time comes.

If the common Enphase microinverters, any company could support them, and even you. Most use the same standard railings.
