   Just installed solar + battery. It's not to save the planet, I've lost faith that's possible. It's to give us a private power supply when things really go to shit.

     Yes, totally agree and it's sad we have to think this way due to billionaires greed while acting like spoiled brats.
     I'd get some but not for this home, my neighbors suck and prob wouldn't get the cost of it out when I sold. Still looking for where to move, maybe out of the US as it's a shit-hole due to radical repubes billionaire silver spoon brats.
     Might get some that I can take with when I move.
     Try adding a step up transformer after inverter of course, more free energy.

     Yeah, all the people in charge are trying hard to bring about Doomsday for some reason. You have the right idea.

     @fesshole Long after the 10% of early adopters got this, the real uptake happened when it was a financial incentive. Balancing the grid makes money and turns your bills negative — except of course when half the country has them and then energy prices fall for everyone else

     Anyway Australia would love to show youse how it’s done
