Affiliate Disclosure
How The Solar Pit may earn money from links and partnerships.
This disclosure explains affiliate links, sponsored relationships, product samples, discount codes, giveaway sponsors, and other relationships that may support the site.
1. Overview
The Solar Pit publishes solar, portable power, battery, energy, and related product content. Some pages may include affiliate links, referral links, sponsored placements, discount codes, brand collaborations, giveaway sponsorships, or other business relationships.
If you click certain links, use a discount code, submit a lead form, enter a partner campaign, or purchase a product through a linked retailer or brand, The Solar Pit may earn a commission or receive other compensation at no additional cost to you.
2. Affiliate Links and Commissions
An affiliate link is a link that may track a referral from this site to a third-party website. If you buy something or complete another qualifying action after using that link, we may receive a commission, referral fee, bounty, credit, product credit, or other compensation.
Affiliate relationships may include manufacturers, retailers, marketplaces, software providers, lead providers, solar companies, energy brands, and other third-party partners.
Prices, product availability, shipping, taxes, warranties, return policies, and retailer terms are controlled by the third party, not The Solar Pit.
3. Sponsored Content and Brand Relationships
The Solar Pit may work with brands, sponsors, manufacturers, retailers, agencies, or affiliate networks on sponsored content, product reviews, giveaways, product launches, discount campaigns, lead generation, or other marketing programs.
Sponsored relationships may involve payment, free or discounted products, early access, loaner products, paid placements, campaign fees, giveaway prizes, travel support, or other consideration.
When a material relationship is relevant to how a reasonable visitor evaluates the content, we aim to disclose that relationship clearly and near the related content where practical.
4. Reviews and Recommendations
Our goal is to publish useful content for people comparing solar, backup power, battery, and energy products. Affiliate compensation may influence whether a product is covered, where a product appears, or which retailers are linked, but it does not guarantee a positive review or recommendation.
Product reviews, rankings, buyer guides, calculator results, and recommendations are based on available information, experience, research, testing where applicable, stated assumptions, and editorial judgment. They should not be treated as professional engineering, electrical, legal, tax, financial, installation, or safety advice.
You are responsible for deciding whether any product, system, installer, retailer, or offer is right for your needs.
5. Giveaway Sponsors and Prizes
Giveaways may be sponsored by The Solar Pit, a brand, a retailer, an affiliate partner, or another third party. Sponsors may provide prizes, funding, promotional support, fulfillment support, or other consideration.
A sponsored giveaway does not mean every product from that sponsor is endorsed for every user. Giveaway participation is governed by the applicable official rules, eligibility requirements, and privacy disclosures.
6. Discount Codes and Special Offers
Discount codes, bonus offers, limited-time promotions, rebates, bundles, and sale prices may change, expire, become unavailable, or be subject to third-party terms. We do not guarantee that a code, price, or offer will work when you use it.
Some codes may be affiliate codes, meaning we may be compensated if you use them.
7. Third-Party Responsibility
When you click an affiliate link or third-party link, you may leave The Solar Pit and interact with a separate website, brand, retailer, installer, marketplace, or service provider.
Those third parties are responsible for their own products, services, claims, checkout, payment processing, shipping, returns, warranties, support, terms, privacy practices, and customer service.
8. Accuracy and Updates
We try to keep affiliate disclosures and product information useful, but mistakes can happen and third-party information changes quickly. Always verify details directly with the manufacturer, retailer, sponsor, installer, or service provider before making a purchase or relying on an offer.
We may update this Affiliate Disclosure as the site, business relationships, affiliate programs, or legal requirements change.
9. Questions
