Our experience with Discount Solar was less than stellar, way less... We were looking to add to our solar panels on our RV (we had 2 - 100 watt panels,... read more wanted to add a 3rd one).  We decided to make the long drive to Quartzsite due to the reviews and quote we received over the phone for a 190 watt panel installed for $435 from Discount Solar.  We made an appointment, arrived a bit early and waited until our appointment time.  The panel was installed and the bill went from $435 to $590.  My wife paid the bill, not knowing what the original quote was.  I called to discuss with the owner and after more than a week playing phone tag he told me that the quote was for the panel only, but I had verified that INSTALLATION was included with the salesman before we made the appointment and that played a major factor in our decision to use them.  After giving us a hard time and telling us we were asking for way too much regarding the quoted price, we were finally refunded the additional charges.  He did at least honor the quoted price.

After install, my wife asked how we could tell that the panel was working.  She was told that we would notice a difference on a sunny day (it was very overcast the day of install).  Come to find out, they didn't even bother to test their work.  After blowing multiple fuses on our solar system and not being able to use the new panel during a month long trip, we had a mobile repairman come and take a look.  The reason for the blown fuses was that the panel had been wired backwards!!  It would have never worked and continually blown fuses without being repaired. We had to remove the panel and have it wired correctly.  We ended up spending $170 to fix their work that could have been avoided if they had only tested it!  It was as easy as unplugging the other panels.  The controller told us the panel was wired backwards!

MAKE SURE THEY DEMONSTRATE THAT THE SYSTEM WORKS BEFORE YOU PAY THEM ANY MONEY!

  Near the end of January they installed solar on my RV. I chose to go with changes to what I wanted suggested by Dan and Matt. Having used it for... read more a month now I'm glad I went with their expertise rather than just the research I'd done. The install was complete in less time than they told me to expect, and Charlie went through all the details of the install making sure all my questions were answered. I've been 100% happy with the install. Sandy followed up After I've had a chance to get used to the system to make sure I was happy with everything. Today they moved some of the solar equipment in my RV to make my life easier. Matt, Charlie, and Steve again knocked it out of the park for me. They were again done in less time than quoted, clean up after themselves, and made sure everything looks great. Both times they've done work for me their prices have been fair and competitive for the quality of equipment and work. They get top marks across-the-board as far as I'm concerned!

  I'm a DIY'er. I had a 300w ground deployed solar system that I wanted to upgrade. I had a good but imperfect understanding of what I needed exactly to upgrade... read more the solar on my camper.

They answered a few of my questions, gave me a couple tips. Then made the sale of an additional 600w of panels, a Victron 150/70 charge controller, and some wiring.

The system works great. But was a lot of work installing, took me about 4 days.

Sandy and a couple of techs really helped me out. I will certainly be coming back.

  Good place to go for DIY solar supplies, especially for RVs.  Got a very high-quality 20 foot MC4 extension cord for my EcoFlow power cube and suitcase panels.  

Also got... read more a MPPT charge controller to later add on to my house batteries so I can also charge them with my suitcase panels.

  Just dropped my class A off and Craig has an outstanding team of professionals all over the rig includes Clyde ( wizard of all electrical), and about 5-6 others .... read more Looking forward to picking it up and getting out on a trip! The have all been extremely helpful and cooperative working with all my concerns!
Thank you

  Have had 3 or 4 complete installs over the years ... solar cells, controller, sine wave inverter and battery chargers.  Installed on diesel pusher motorhomes and fifth wheels.
No more.
Met with... read more rude employees and poor attitudes starting with salesman, Stew and continuing along this week.
Waslked away from $4, 700 install and comparable system installed next day at Solar Bill's for $3,000.

  We went in for an evaluation of our current (20 yr old system) and were very pleased.  Chet was able to tell us a lot about the current set up... read more that we didn't know and discussed upgrade options.  Never tried to upsell us but listened to what we wanted to accomplish and laid out the various ways we could get there.  Thoroughly pleased with the service.  Would definitely go back when/if the need arises.  Good trustworthy people.

  I was shopping prices for lithium batteries for my 2019 Leisure Travel Van to replace my Lead acids. Battleborn quoted me $2k for 200ah + battery monitor and isolated charger.... read more  I walked in and explained my sitch to Matt and he said all I needed was the batteries and my system would work fine until I decided to upgrade the other components, if desired. They managed to fit me in same day, and I paid a little under $500 less and have been happy ever since. No more waking up to critical low levels on my power bank. And I can enjoy running my kitchen appliances or electronic devices without worrying I won't be able to replenish the used power. Their LiFeBlue LifePO4 batts have a built in BT monitor I call up on my phone to see where my levels are. I almost fell victim to the popular brand hype. Nothing against Battleborn, but I think if you want a product that will provide a solution, and an installer that will give it to you straight without upselling or salesy BS, you're going to love Discount Solar. My only qualm, if it qualifies is that they had to modify the bay to fit the batteries because the LiFeBlue product was slightly taller than the lead acids that were in the space under my step.  That being said, the quote was itemized and in writing, they fit me in during a very busy season, and it was a clean install at a great price.

  Merry Christmas to me! I bought a brand new Thor Chateau 22E Class C but it only came "wired for solar". Since I planned to "boondock" in the Quartzsite, AZ... read more desert for the winter, I asked my "experts" and Discount Solar was highly recommended. I received a same day estimate quote for three panels and two lithium batteries. Their scheduler Matt had me on the books and even called the day before to confirm my appointment. The crew of Charlie, Dan and Jesse were on the spot to park me and to start the installation of the panels, batteries, and even found creative out-of-sight spaces for my new inverter and charge controller. Owner Craig also provided websites and apps so I can monitor my solar and battery status. Craig also found a water leak problem that I wasn't aware of that a mobile tech will be looking at tomorrow!  THANKS CRAIG!  BTW, the final price came in UNDER THE ESTIMATE! I'm a happy camper with 570 watts of panel on my roof.

  I showed up without an appointment and they worked me in. They are basically rewiring my solar system that was installed kind of sloppy. Really nice people and they are... read more getting me the most bang for my buck. I'm coming back.
