First and foremost, I find both the format and the chosen paper absolutely brilliant. Even in not-so-good weather, I could always have the instructions lying next to me and compare them with my activities without the pages coming loose or suffering from moisture. 🌧️
I thought the list of materials with the barcodes was absolutely brilliant 👍
The installation of the panels was indeed tricky, but with the help of the drilling template and the detailed instructions in this area, we managed to install the panels very well.
As a trained electrician, I naturally had no problems with the wiring diagram.
I also find the space for notes and the detailed explanation of the app and settings great. From my point of view, the instructions are already of a very high standard. 🎖️
I also found the speed of response to inquiries great. You always responded promptly with a lot of help.
Thank you very much. 🙏
