Mimeos installed an 8-panel 1.84kW system that has been working flawlessly since it was installed in November 2010. I absolutely love having solar power... both on a financial and moral level. I talked to a lot of Mimeos' customers before going with them and they all were incredibly effusive about how great they were... which was confirmed by my own experience. Matt, my main contact, and his crew could not have been more professional, informative and easy to work with. They genuinely took all of the mystery out of what seemed like a fairly daunting project. Matt made himself available to answer any questions whenever I had them. The installation itself was quick and painless. I highly, highly recommend talking to them. ...read more
