I'm not entirely sure how valid the 15% reduction actually is when compared to other companies etc.

 

Example:  Oboard Energy charge £1,001.70 for a Victron 100Ah Lithium battery, or £851.46 with the Johno discount, whereas Alpha Batteries charge a normal rate of £849.99 for the same battery incl delivery (BAT512110705).

 

I'm sure they'll be a great company to deal with but I'm just saying that the 15% Johno discount may not be all it seems.

I agree, but the op asked for recommendations for solar panel fitting which I gave. I didn’t have to mention the johno discount but I thought he might like to save a few quid. 
Kev at onboard energy is a nice bloke and he did a very good job of fitting mine. With a five year no quibble warranty on fitting and hardware.
