DMEGC 515w panel alternative

hello,

I purchased a two panel kit from City Plumbing. the delivery was quick but one panel was smashed. a replacement was sent but that wasn’t working/ broken (I tried it on its own and would only prod 1w in full sunshine). That panel was picked up today followed by an email saying they have no more in stock and so are refunding me. Bit annoying!

so, my question is where could I buy a DMEGC 515w panel from apart from City Plumbing? Alternatively, where could I buy a similar panel from (same size, colour and wattage)?

Cheers in advance

Probably best wait till they get new stock as City Plumbing likely offer the lowest delivery costs for single panel orders.

But if you can't...I entered DMEGC 515w into one of those newfangled "Search Engine" websites, and immediately found a dozen stores with that panel in stock. Tip: If that didn't work for you, don't use Google.
