Default Re: who amongst us have gone solar

it's a funny thing about consumption figures involving solar.....my usage dropped by an average of 4 kilowatts per day as the array fed directly into the house taking care of all the low power usage items

I have checked on this many times and can prove it...... things like "standby" items and lights can be run directly off the array.....small savings add up

I watch my inverter very closely and quite often the little "gateway" to the grid is open which shows direct feed into the house

this 4 kilowatts equates to a saving of 0.92c per day.......see told you I'm gonna be rich!!

may your day's be filled with smiles, your life be filled with love, may your children know nothing but happiness and joy, cherish the memory of those who strove before us for they cleared the way, spare a thought for those who serve we owe so much to so many, life and the freedom to enjoy it is a special gift that can be taken away far too soon!
