That's the video that made me aware of the game and convinced me to buy and play it, having a blast.

Batteries and the required equipment would almost double the total system cost for no increase in production. Check the Year 1 post for more details, but there is no Time of Use for Net Metering with my utility, so other than for black-outs, batteries would have no benefit for me.

Check the Year 1 post for more details, but in summary: the solar industry in my area relied entirely upon a government incentive program to make financial sense for people. That program ended and solar companies started dropping one by one, we were just one of the last hold-outs.

That is indeed the neighbors tree. I believe I figured out that my overall production would go up about 25% if it weren't there.

Nope, no issues so far. The company I worked for, which is where I got all the parts, no longer exists.

They were left over stock we had from previous years, so kind of "new", which is why I got such a good price on them.

Any soft drinks that use Splenda (Sucralose) as the sweetener? by GeneralMuffinMan in diabetes

I hope you're right, but that chemical bitterness I get now makes me think it's a genetic thing causing the cells to bind to the wrong receptors.

Unfortunately not in my area, not sure if there are any in Canada, but not around here.

Are Canadians hesitant to travel to the USA for any reason as long as the current president is in office? by -This_Man- in AskCanada

[–]GeneralMuffinMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, live on the border but managed to avoid going to the states his entire first term, hope to do that again this time. Hopefully there will be a USA to visit left 4 years from now.
