I'd urge a bit of caution with regard to the Navitron forum. It's owned by a supplier of heat pumps and other renewable stuff for a start, so discussion is often limited by the moderation team if it starts to veer off into the merits of products that Navitron don't sell.
A bit of common sense maybe. Yes, it is a forum owned by a company, but it is independently moderated by users and the only significant criteria they have is no links to other suppliers for projects that they sell themselves (they are not installers so installation advice is totally independent, but do have an installer list so prefer people to use them but its a polite preference not a rule and total independents are equally welcomed to be mentioned - its how I got my PV installer, nothing to do with Navitron or their products), which considering they foot the bill for the resource, is, imho, fair enough - a little like here and not linking to sites that are 'competitors' to TMC. I totally disagree about discussion being moderated for non Navitron products - absolutely not the case. In fact, products recommendations are very rarely mentioned and even they are, references to products not sold by Navitron are often talked about, just not links.
Like most forums, there are a couple of easy to spot things to tip toe around - I suspect the moderator that Jeremey was referring to is long gone and no longer concerned with the wellbeing of this planet, RIP. I was a regular for years, and imho, an excellent resource, I would not have recommended it otherwise. But there are others resources available to add to the knowledge base.
