EricJ Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 The sun is over rated.. You are just a dirty, smelly fisherman. If a hot girl is making eye contact with you, she is probably a hooker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave588 Posted September 3, 2022 Report Share Posted September 3, 2022 I did installs on dod offshore platforms. I would like to do my own in an off grid type design. Get some split phase inverters that do load sharing. Kind of depends on neighborhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLilly Posted September 3, 2022 Report Share Posted September 3, 2022 We’ve been happy with our solar install. Did a ground mount because I didn’t want anyone poking holes in our metal roof. Haven’t had a power bill in two years and no problems with the system. woowoo2, RAW, ByronPA and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
