WARNING!
BUYER BEWARE – Faulty EG4 12K Hybrid Solar AC/DC Unit & Poor Vendor Support ⚠️ I strongly advise against buying from this seller. They knowingly sold me a defective EG4 12K Hybrid Solar AC/DC unit and refused to take proper responsibility for the issue. The unit does not function as advertised—it fails to operate using solar DC power alone, even with over 90V and a properly balanced PV system of four panels, as claimed in their documentation and sales kits. After purchase, I was subjected to a long series of ineffective troubleshooting steps that led nowhere. When that failed, they shifted the blame to the manufacturer and completely washed their hands of the situation. This vendor clearly lacks honesty, professionalism, and integrity. Their customer service was dismissive and unhelpful, showing zero accountability for the products they sell. Avoid this vendor at all costs. Buy at your own risk. – Roberto
Response from Direct Solar PowerAug 22, 2025
We are very sorry to see your review, especially since just hours before it was posted we emailed you directly to confirm that we would not leave you with a faulty unit. In fact, we specifically offered to escalate the warranty claim with EG4 on your behalf so that you can receive a replacement — something we normally ask customers to do themselves. We want to be clear: the EG4 12K Hybrid you purchased is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Like all distributors, we do not produce or alter the units, and defects, while rare, are addressed through the manufacturer’s warranty process. That is exactly why we offered to step in and assist you directly. It is not accurate to say that we “refused responsibility” or “washed our hands” of the situation. On the contrary, we went beyond our standard policy by offering to manage the escalation for you. We remain committed to working with EG4 until a resolution is in place for you. For anyone reading this, please know that Direct Solar Power stands by honesty, professionalism, and customer support. If a unit ever arrives defective, we work with our customers and the manufacturer to ensure warranty protections are honored and a working product is delivered.
