I want to start with if I can edit this down the road with an update once everything is done I will (currently getting our trailer worked on with Seth) but lets start here. Im a mechanically savy person and I can do electrical in a car so I can follow along learning something new. We got a solar trailer (not from Seth) and were "trained" on its functions and while we asked questions we were given vague answers in response not really feeling our questions were answered.

Fast forward we had the trailer a few months and experienced some battery issues along with the charge controller. Everyone local I called left us with the same empty feeling of vague or half answers. It felt almost as if the people I was talking to was not wanting to help educate us on the function of our trailer. This became very frustrating for us. Finally we found Seth on a facebook group I called him and he spent over an hour on the phone with me finally helping me understand this piece of equipment we have. I left that phone call feeling so relieved having found someone who isnt afraid to help educate the consumer and keep this all a deep secret, because really thats how it felt talking with these other guys. We need a new battery and needed to know what would work best for us and what it would run, Seth again spent another hour on the phone with me educating me on the different options and how they function so we could make the best educated decision for what will work for us. I told him we were not ready at the time financially but we will save up and 1000% use him when the time came. Well nows the time and he so far has been absolutely wonderful.

I think over all 3 things give me peace of mind trusting Seth 1) he knows what he is talking about and genuinely wants to help educate and does not make you feel stupid, 2) he doesn't push for the more expensive options he helps you know what your needs are and leaves the choice 100% up to you, and finally this one is really big for me 3) he has not made one single recommendation that he wouldn't do in his own home with his own family! This one is major to me as I operate the same way.

Seth thank you SO much for everything so far! If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would!

Solar-trailer troubleshooting and repair

After purchasing our solar trailer, I was at a total loss as to how it even worked. I was told by the seller to just set it in the sun and plug things in. Well, that didn't work. Kept shutting off every few minutes. Luckily I found Seth. He spent about an hour on the phone trying to help me diagnose the issue. Finally he told me to bring it by. He was able to find and repair my problem in a few days, at a very reasonable cost. He then spent over an hour explaining to me how to use the trailer at my off grid property. Don't be fooled by electricians who don't know solar trailers. If you have an issue, Seth at Iron Cowboy is the only one to take it to. He is also a really great person.

Additional comment from Ron: “Forgot to leave 5 stars”

Solar-trailer battery repair

We depend upon our Solar trailer to power our pool during very hot Lake County summers. We had 6 cells fail and we didn't know what to do or where to start. We found Seth's info and got out trailer to him ASAP. We were able to get the trailer back in a short period of time and it is full of power! Seth is so knowledgeable and calm when explaining how the solar works. Our summer is bearable because of our pool. Many thanks Seth! You're a lifesaver. We love our trailer! 10 stars!! no less!

Remote DC Solar trailer troubleshooting

Yup if you have a DCSolar Trailer this is the man to talk to. I went through multiple electricians here in San Diego before I found him and after some phone time I was good to go again. Thanks Seth.

On-site DC Solar trailer maintenance

Shout out to Seth from iron cowboy for making the 4 hour drive to maintenance my dc solar trailer. I had 2 cells that were in bad shape which left me with a solar system that was unusable. Seth arrived fully equipped with the tools and knowledge to complete the job. He explained the work that was being performed with some other details on how I could maintain a healthy setup. The service provided was affordable and I was 💯 percent satisfied with my experience

Solar-trailer troubleshooting and repair

Seth started by helping me with trouble shooting on a Facebook group. When I couldn’t get it done he went way out of his way to get my trailer up and running when I needed it.

Past solar-trailer event rental

Historical rental experience; not an offer of current rental availability.

Seth rented a solar trailer for a four day weddding event we hosted. It worked great, no noise issues that diesel generators have. He dropped it off and explained how to use it then picked it up. Everything was perfect!
