The guy I usually work with was discussing the better load distribution using the RT-E mounts.

I'll have to read up more on this. They do look nice, but I see more penetrations. Also, I didn't see stainless steel hurricane rated bolts in the picture so I will go look back.

I like more of a pole/tracker design than roof mounting myself. Boosts output and easier for any maintenance.

There's going to be options for not even having to go on your roof very soon. You want a carport? You want some window shades? Very cool things. AND, the fed credit is expiring 12/31/16, the cost is going to continue to come down for solar because the industry knows they are losing that. Batteries are getting smaller and better and cheaper.

A friend that runs PM for major installs (4MW backlog this year) says batteries will drop 30% in cost within 3 years.
