Superb technical support , customer focused - in a professional and friendly manner

I have never experienced such superb tech support before. !
A query I had on about connecting their solar panel fitted on my motorhome to a Jackery power bank was dealt with very promptly and with detailed explanations and advise. It led to further questions and a series of email exchanges . Each one dealt with in a prompt , friendly and professional way.
Alex is a credit to the company !
Would not hesitate in using the company again and in recommending them .

Very poor quality solar panels

Very poor quality solar panels, 2 panels failed within 2 years and now refusing to replace as outside a 2 year period from the original purchase!! They advertise a 4 year warranty on their website!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the replacement solar panel has failed. We understand how frustrating this must be, and want to help clarify the situation with the warranty.

We see that you purchased the 100W flexible solar panel in May 2021. This panel came with a 2-year warranty, as stated on the product datasheet https://www.solartechnology.co.uk/content-files/cms/files/flexi-panels/Flexi%20spec%20100W.pdf

The 4-year warranty you mentioned on our website is for a different product.

You contacted us when your original panel stopped working in June 2023, which was just outside of the 2-year warranty period. Even so, as a gesture of goodwill, we replaced it with a more powerful 150W panel, since the original was out of stock.

When any product is replaced under warranty, the warranty period does not reset. The original warranty for your 100W panel expired in May 2023. This means that the replacement panel, provided in June 2023, was not covered by a new warranty.

We sincerely apologise again for the frustration this has caused. We value our customers and always aim to find a solution, so if you'd like to get in touch with us directly, we will do our best to find a resolution for you.

Yours sincerely,
The Solar Tech Team

Great pre-sales service

I received a prompt response to a pre-sales email enquiry, my various questions were answered (at length) and the following discussion withe technical expert via several more emails was also conducted speedily. I was not made to feel ignorant of the solar principles and finished the discussion having found out what I needed to know and more. So I bought the items I was interested in and they will arrive soon! Customer Care is easy if you actually care, and have experienced people to field queries. Competitors take note - this is how pre-sales support should work.

Support when updating to Lithium batteries

I updated my motorhome to Lithium batteries and asked Solar Technology support for help in updating the solar system. Their support was brilliant and they could not have been more helpful

Outstanding Customer Support & Reliable Solar Panels!

I had an excellent experience with Solar Technology’s customer support team. After encountering an issue with my solar panel, I reached out for help and was met with prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful assistance. Alex from support guided me through troubleshooting steps, providing clear instructions and even diagrams to help diagnose the problem.

When it turned out to be a faulty panel, the company quickly arranged a replacement under warranty. The new panel worked perfectly, charging my Hubi battery as expected. What stood out the most was their commitment to ensuring I had a working solution, even offering DIY repair tips for those comfortable with minor fixes.

The level of customer service I received was outstanding—fast responses, friendly communication, and a genuine effort to resolve my issue. I highly recommend Solar Technology for both their high-quality products and their fantastic after-sales support. Five stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

New Leisure battery, older version MPPT Pro…

About to change my leisure battery and wanted to ensure I understood the new MPPT pro App and what the controller was doing and how I could access it (installed 2019). Dropped an Email to Solar Tech and the got an extensive and helpful reply (same day) from Alex in the support office. I followed this up with another question and got the same prompt and helpful response. First class service. Thank you

Caravan fitted solar

The solar is fitted to my Coachman 665 caravan, it’s out of warranty but the service I had from Alex and the team was exemplary, I couldn’t connect via Bluetooth, Alex gave me options via Email and links to their help line, still no joy so it was agreed, at no cost, just postage, to send the controller back for inspection. Sent it on the Monday, had a call pm on the Tuesday, faulty Bluetooth module, £20 to repair, paid over the phone, unit arrived pm on the Wednesday….perfect, fantastic service and everyone I dealt with was exceptional, would not hesitate in recommending.

TV socket no power, effecting the solar output.

Although had my solar system fitted 6 years problem which effected the output.
Asking for advice Alex gave me the answers I needed to check out the system once I cured the initial problem.
Thanks for your assistance and impressed that you were so willing to help after 6 years.

Highly recommend Alex

Alex provided me with all the information I needed, professional, knowledgeable, patient delivery at a level and pace appropriate to me….someone with very little knowledge and experience. Highly recommended.
