Installed AE125 today and MAN IS IT COOL.

1'st note, yes I know it says it in the instructions, but I wasn't prepared for 3 double pole 40 amp breakers to feed the beast with.

2nd note "Powering" it up is kind of like the first time you used a CD burner, you "know" it will be quite, smoth, no smells, but you just expect something to smoke/ hiss/ groan/ buzz etc. just the sound of water flowing through the unit.

3rd note DAMN it will make your water HOTTTTTT FAST. Watch that thermostat knob!

4th note It does work properly with changing input temps, I cycled my solar byp*** (for freezes) and I couldn't tell the difference in output temps.

5th note SMALL I just wasn't prepared for how small the thing would be. It is about like a small medicine cabinet

So far (2 hours) I'd highly recommend this unit with or without a solar system.
