That would get expensive. Why would you want to run a gas/diesel generator constantly?

Sounds like they agree with me about the rooftop deal.

Looks like smart folks running it, but that website needs work. Looks like they have a great story to tell, but they are telling it (visually) poorly.

I would hope you are kidding as the question was about backup power.

I got solar panels 2 years ago. I was on averaging billing at the time. My monthly bill was $225. Since installing solar panels my bill (still on the average payment plan) has dropped every month and hasn't plateaued out yet. This months bill was $119, so I'm am already saving $106/mo.

Given the amount I was willing to pay, I had the choice of adding a few more panels and saving even more or adding a battery backup that acts like a generator when the power goes off. That has happened about 3 times. No loss of power.

I'd rather have the portable solar genertor. Quiet and more versatile.

Having solar panels done is the best way to money on electricity bills. If you need more information on installation and maintenance or purchase visit [link=(here)]https://www.cleanenergycorp.com.au/[/link].

Update: I got my bill yesterday. It was $16. My total bills for the last 5 months have totaled $120. It's probably the best $5k I have ever spent.

Agree.

There is a pretty good deal on some roll out solar cells on Amazon. Apparently the manufacturer went out of business so they are trying to sell through the backstock.

I wanted a few for my dog house to run their fans but they are 18' long.

I might order a few anyway. I will find a use for them somewhere.
