Quote from: klondike on Today at 01:38:14 PMYes. I had a small system installed last year but only on one roof. I've since realised the other roof would be OK too but adding just that would cost close to the price I paid for my whole system last year as prices have shot up.  That wouldn't then make financial sense.

I've decided to put a couple of panels up as a solar gazebo and run them through a plug in microinverter which are in the process of getting less regulation making them a DIY job. I'll have it covering house load and just exporting any excess. I'll get paid for any export under my current systems certificate and tariff.

The return shouldn't be high but the way prices are likely to go once Trump throws in the towel and leaves Iran in charge it might be  producing something very worthwhile.
Thanks for that, I am looking for power to the greenhouse and shed and looking for a "cheap" option

The average person typically farts between 13 and 23 times a day, though some studies suggest a wider, normal range of 3 to 40 times. Recent research using sensory technology suggests the average could be higher, around 32 times per day. Most, if not all, of these daily occurrences are odorless and often go unnoticed.

The Chat Room / Useless information
Last post by Mups - Today at 01:15:52 PM
How about a fun thread full of useless information?

For example,  here are the first couple of things I bet you will always have wondered about:


1. Did you know that women blink nearly twice as much as men?

2. Also, Giraffes can go longer without water than a Camel can.
 

Please feel free to add more useless information that we don't need.  You never know when it might come in handy.    :smiley:

For the house?

I think quite a few felt the same, Diasi.
