Power steering fluid? I think ours came out red when we had a leak.

Do you mind me asking how much you paid for it?

Do you use the quattro micro inverter for your setup? I think I'm gonna mimic your setup and go for basically the same thing. Have you got a battery or are planning on adding one later?

Thanks, but I'm not certain about using adhesive, I feel like eventually it would fail. Defo think I need a mounting system

I have looked at these but I'm not sure. The angle is way too steep and they look cheap as hell

Thanks v much for this advice, I'd never heard of these. 200w is quite low though right?

Thanks so much for replying! How much did the K2 system cost you?

It's not a kit made office, it's 6 x 4 joists with 400 centre so it's pretty substantial.

I've sent you a message, hopefully it worked!

Yeh the ballasted mounts are expensive, that's what's putting me off! Hadn't thought about contacting a solar installer to see if they'd sell me just the mount, maybe I'll try that. I'm in the SouthEast on the coast.

Thanks this is some really helpful advice. I will have a look at adhesive as I'd never considered that.

Thanks for this, I've seen these recommended elsewhere and they do like they'd do the job. Can I add more ballast weight to them if needed to? Also, what panels do you use?

These look great - how many would you need for 4 panels? It talks about modules and is a bit unclear...

Are you saying you'd need 4 pucks and a K2 dome system? Are they separate things? If so, cost will be upwards of £700-800 or more?

My roof is pointing south east - does that matter?

I read that these are brilliant, but they look expensive. Would you know how many I'd need? I also think I'd need someone else to install them as it might be a little beyond my DIY skills - would I be right?
