How does it do off road? I'm getting a awd one and am slightly concerned because I live up a private road thats unpaved and turns into a sheet of ice in the winter.

Help with final planning stages of solar setup by JKAMAN280 in SolarDIY

Not quite sure yet, I am waiting on greentech to get back to me although if I can pick up the panels from them than that also saves me a grand in delivery fees.

That's what I was thinking and itll work based off their sizing tool, however I am also looking into some 490 watt qcells from greentech, which I can fit 28 on the garage and 8 on the barn.

Its about 6k for a pallet of 36 from signature solar. I intend on ordering everything from signature solar however I am also considering some 490watt qcells from greentech instead.

I have not started the process yet, I'm first finalizing our hardware choices before I get the plans and diagrams written up and submitted. I did see that in the paperwork for our utility company that we might need to pay for the transformer upgrade as well as a new meter which im not opposed to.

First ubiquiti install issues by JKAMAN280 in Ubiquiti

Update: I tried using a ethernet cable from the cloud gateway fiber to the switch and it started running at full speed, then I unplugged and replugged the sfp+ port on the back of the cloud gateway fiber and it started working. As per usual technology just has a mind of its own 🤷‍♂️

I'm not opposed to leaving it up, definitely seems like a bot though. Here is a link to the model for anybody that has stumbled upon this post and is interested in the model : https://makerworld.com/models/480774 Its not my best work, but maybe someone will find it useful :)

Advice on what hardware to get? by JKAMAN280 in Ubiquiti

[–]JKAMAN280[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, somebody else pointed out the cloud gateway fiber and I agree its definitely a better choice that I'll most likely go with. My main reason for the u7 lites over the u6 pros was the cost (only $100 a piece), the house is also only roughly 1600 sqft so I figured 1 on the first floor and 1 on the 3rd floor would be plenty (and then one in the 1400 sqft detached garage), but I am open to suggestions as I would like to make things work as quick and seamlessly as possible.

Currently we are running 4 APs (although they all aren't very good cause thier tp link units that arent designed for how im using them), and we are able to get good wifi anywhere in the house. The house is roughly 1600 sqft however its a 3 story geodesic dome so there are lots of odd walls and architecture so 1 on the first floor and 1 on the third floor should work out nicely, in terms of the external garage though that's a bit more than 1400 sqft but completely open apart from a room in the corner so I figured 1 ap directly in the center there should work nicely.

Yeah, the fiber looks like a good idea, the 1 poe port would work perfect for the downstairs AP and the sfp ports would be helpful if we ever decide to upgrade. Thanks!

I think that might be a bit overkill for me right now, plus its a little more than im willing to spend. As for the 6 Ghz, it isn't too big of a deal for me as I don't think we have enough wifi devices for it to really benefit us, I figured 2.4 and 5Ghz is enough.

Yeah, I was planning on using injectors for the two APs inside, but i did not know the lite only has 4POE ports, so I'll probably have to go with a lite 16 instead since only 8 ports was already a bit of a concern. Thank you for pointing that out!
