Solar tracker installation tips - Universal with focus on Eco-Worthy

These are some tips I have on setting up solar tracking units. The solar/tracker equipment I'm using here is from eco-worthy. I will say up front that I have had a lot of challenges with these units. Parts missing, motor problems, controller problems, etc. At first it was frustrating as heck trying to get support. However, the company has improved that significantly. Newer trackers have higher quality parts as well.

As far as the panels themselves, they've been solid. No issues. Work as advertised.

Overall, I don't have any experience with other trackers, but I would buy more of these with confidence. If they were all like the first one I ever installed I'd say no, but the last one I received was a much better experience.

Support Tip: If you order from Amazon, go back to amazon to request support. If you go to corporate you'll wait a while and then they'll send you there anyway.

Here is one with sound. Just remember there are 3-4 mounts moving at different times

*Due to the extreme drop in the price of solar modules, tracking systems are now superfluous.*
Where mechanics and electronics are outside, there is a lot of maintenance and failures! And they are very susceptible to wind. Due to mechanics & weather, most only last 1-10 years.
*It is cheaper and much more reliable to simply install more solar modules. They easily last 25-30 years without maintenance!*
If you want more consistent yields throughout the day, you simply need to place the modules in an S-E and S-W orientation.

Davis, I have larger panels, do you think it hold them. I have 16 panels. They are 390 watt panels. They measure 48 inches by 65 inches?
