More info. Evergreen panels, 54 of them IIRC. Fronius inverters. System installed by www.simplicitysolar.com . Some teething problems, mainly due to the complexity of the three phase, the newness of the technology to the county inspectors, etc. Took several tries before the county thought we had enough disconnects from all sides to isolate the solar.

Gas prices are high! Sorry, I didn't make my point very clear. I do see the page - it is semi-blatant <G> - but I was hungry for more info. I didn't think you could go into the costs (although I was hoping <G>). Any idea who the manufacture/reseller was? Thanks! What I said was: "Can you, if you don't mind, shed some light on the costs and any additional info on your panels? I might also suggest that FM might want to put an info page on its site about them." What I should have said was: "Can you, if you don't mind, shed some light on the costs and any additional info on your panels not already on the small description describing the number of panels and max yield. I might also suggest that FM might want to put a very detailed page on its site about them. There are a lot of gear heads out here that may be tempted to do something similar if they knew more details."

I know, it's not super-blatant. But everything needs to be super-blatant. I was just informed that two out of the three recent Open House signups "couldn't find the info on the website" despite a front-page picture and description. So until I move to a site where everything is red and yellow and flashing, we'll just have to hope that people read what's there. Bill will have to talk about the specs, although I don't know if he'll share costs. We're not off the grid, we feed back into it when we're not using all the power. Consider the grid to be our batteries. The site will be getting more "green" info shortly, including more info on the panels themselves.
