Dear Scott,
This is a terrific idea and one with a great deal of potential. From experience, a financed product will do best with a quality product that performs to expectation and lasts the distance with minimal maintenance to ensure an appropriate return given finance charges, margins and the risk taken. Tindo Solar manufactures a genuine quality panel in Adelaide and you get the opportunity to support manufacturing jobs in Australia not China. With volume, our pricing is the same or less than some other imported panels but with quality you can validate simply (we have an open door policy at Tindo). I would be pleased to discuss further with you - 0428 606 420. I will be in Melbourne for a series of public briefings on Tindo, 26, 27 and 28th November - http://www.tindosolar.com.au/a...
