       Please respond to these comments within ten business days by providing
the requested
information or advise us as soon as possible when you will respond. If you do

Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2017

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, page 14

1.    You disclose that the overall increase in SG&A in 2017, as compared to
2016, was
      primarily due to increased warranty expenses and that you have been
working on
      modifications and refinements to your warranty policy. In this regard, we
note your
      warranty expense increased by approximately 211% year over year and
lowered gross
      profit by approximately 9%. Please revise to disclose the material
factors negatively
      impacting your results so that investors can better understand the
underlying issues
      driving your warranty payments and increased expense. To the extent
management
      anticipates that warranty expense will continue to have a negative impact
on your future
      results, please provide discussion of this trend to provide investors
with more insight into
      your risks and future results of operations. Please refer to Sections
501.04 (Material

Codification
         for further guidance.

2.       We note the increase in inventory and it appears that your inventory
turnover decreased
         from 6.19 for FY 2016 to 4.77 for FY 2017. You disclose that cash
flows from operating
         activities decreased primarily due to increased purchases of inventory
during the year.
         Please revise your filing to expand your disclosures regarding cash
flows used in
         operating activities to provide more insight into the underlying
drivers of the significant
         increases in inventory between the periods presented. Refer to Section
501.13.b.1 of the
         Financial Reporting Codification for guidance.
Form 10-Q for the Fiscal Quarter Ended September 30, 2018

Note 9. Warranties, page 11

3.       As it relates to your standard warranty with terms from 18 months to
25 years, which you
         disclose obligates the company to replace parts or services your
products, tell us how you
         considered the factors in ASC 606-10-55-33 in determining your
warranties do not also
         include a service component and these warranties should be accounted
for as a separate
         performance obligation in accordance with ASC 606-10-55-34. Include in
your response
         a comparison of the warranty periods to the average life spans of each
product type.


       In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are
responsible for the
accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review,
comments, action or
absence of action by the staff.
