Can anyone help me with pricing for 2 Link 2000 controllers and 2 Freedom 25 inverters.[one inverter is repairable and currently not working as an inverter--charger is fine]
The worse possible--- a Friend wants to buy the package, I don't want to give the stuff away and I don't want to rip him either.
Thanks for the help,

I think it is reasonable to expect the price of the inverters to be in the $500 to $1000 range. Don't expect the repairs to be cheap. I think it may cost as much as $750 to repair the bad one, maybe a lot less if it is just the relay. The boards are very expensive if they are available at all.

Thanks for the reply Jon. Your comments give something to shoot for.

Larry,
On my inverters which may or may not be the same as yours there are two Potter Brumfield relays visible when you remove the cover. When I was dealing with my voltage variations which apparently were related to a cable issue (never did find the smoking gun) I spoke to Mr. Gusdorf an expert in inverters, and his advice was clean the inside because they collect dust. Check the relays, and if it is a board and not the relays consider buying a new inverter because the manufacturer has put an excessive price on replacement boards was his advice.
If it were me I would check those relays because a simple, relatively inexpensive fix may give you two saleable inverters, but as it stands now the defective one has very little value unless someone doesn't know a replacement board may cost $500 or more.
He did say the boards usually were very reliable.
