d.light, a global leader in transformational household products and affordable consumer financing for low-income households, today announced the launch of the off-grid solar industry’s first 5-year product warranty, setting a new benchmark for durability, reliability, and customer protection.
This milestone reinforces d.light’s long-standing commitment to quality leadership. Fifteen years ago, d.light became the first company in the sector to introduce a 2-year warranty — a move that fundamentally shifted customer expectations and pushed the industry toward higher quality standards. Today, with the introduction of a 5-year warranty, d.light is once again raising the bar.
“At d.light, quality is not just a feature — it is a commitment to our customers,” said Karl Skare, Chief Product and Strategy Officer. “Launching the industry’s first 5-year warranty reflects nearly two decades of investment in engineering, manufacturing excellence, and real-world product testing. We believe customers who depend on our products every day deserve long-term reliability and peace of mind.”
Over the last 20 years, d.light has manufactured over 40 million solar products and continually invested in product design, supply chain quality control, and field performance monitoring. The company’s products are designed to perform reliably in some of the world’s most demanding environments, supporting families and small businesses with dependable access to energy and digital connectivity.
The new 5-year warranty underscores d.light’s confidence in its product quality and reinforces its mission to transform the lives of customers by delivering products they can trust for years to come.
“Quality leadership requires long-term thinking,” added Karl. “We have always believed that pushing quality standards forward is good for customers, good for partners, and good for the entire industry. This 5 year warranty is another step in our commitment to lead from the front.”
The 5-year warranty is available on all d.light solar home systems and solar inverters effective February 14, 2026, and will be extended to existing customers that purchased their product after December 31, 2023.
