I went to place an order. With some other things I wanted it would save me 2150 NZD. However you can only purchase the Davis equipment at that price if you live in US or Canada.

Re: Are we being ripped?

They indicated no issue when I emailed them to ensure that they could ship what I wanted to NZ, mind you I have not confirmed an order with them yet (her in doors who must be obeyed, has not said yes yet) so maybe the bad news comes then

Re: Are we being ripped?

You have already alluded to the issues wrt warranty and I have seen several posts in other forums about Provantage post sales support (or lack of). Not a problem if you are aware and go into it with your eyes open. There are other US vendors that will provide full after sales support and ship to NZ.

Re: Are we being ripped?

A question I raised elsewhere. How do you deal with the voltage difference? US to NZ?
