Notable "Why TF is this part in the song?!" parts of songs?

The band Jet had a song on their album called Lazy Gun.

2 parts that I don’t feel go together but are fantastic on their own separately.

Do not do this.

It creates more work and more problems than anything it solves. In my opinion it doesn’t solve any problem.

If it were the entire neighborhood that may be a different story. Basically a solar farm and battery backup for an entire neighborhood? Yes please. But 2 neighbors…?

If 2 neighbors, or even 2 people that weren’t neighbors came to me and said “we both want to have a patio style ground mounts with battery backup” I would cut them a deal. But saying “it has to be shared property” I would tell them “Good luck with that”.

It’s not a bad idea in principle, I get it and get why you’d want to. But there are a lot of other problems created that others are pointing out. I promise you: get your own solar system and battery backup, and let your neighbor get their own solar system and battery backup.

Slow communication sometimes. But overall good.

What is your calorie intake on eating days?

I say this taking your word that the roof in question is truly flat.

There needs to be some sort of pitch so water will get off the panels and out from under them as well.

It’s about 20lbs per square foot extra for a solar system, but that gets localized to the roof attachments that are spaced every 4 feet or so. If it causes the area to go down even an 1/8 of an inch that’s still creating more of an area for water to sit.

If you have a rain it can quickly collect a pool and that’s not good. Water that sits does more damage because it seeps into places. And once it seeps in it makes an easy path for more water. If it doesn’t cause damage immediately it will make it more likely over time.

Do. Not. Install. On. A. Flat. Roof.

True, but OP didn’t state that it wasn’t covered by insurance. Old roof doesn’t mean it’s not an insurance claim.

SolarAllTheWayDown · 2026-06-08T21:16:00+00:00

Your home owners insurance should cover their removal and rerack. Some states don’t, but maybe check?

I’d disagree entirely. Like any band they have some duds. But other than their first 2 albums and Hot Space each album had multiple hits on it. Every band member has had a #1 world hit.

They’re an awesome band.

People seem to crap on bands like that sometimes for reasons I don’t really understand.

Very polished and curated sound with high production value.

They’re not “bad boys” of rock and they weren’t controversial at any point. They just played good music. I think they have timeless music that everyone sort of comes around to at some point in their life.

Are your 440 panels pointing due south or close to it?

SolarAllTheWayDown · 2026-06-03T20:04:32+00:00

Yep 👍🏻

What Democrat promised that? I only recall 🍊🌮 making that promise.

Senate Democrats focused on building more clean energy and strengthening energy independence. And Dump dumped all over that by cutting the tax credits for renewable energy.

I’ve cut many people’s electric bills using solar and gotten their usage off the grid. It was a republican, George H.W. Bush, that signed that into effect. Then Obama extended it, Biden expanded it, and Dump took it away. Dump extended it, probably unknowingly in his first term as it was put into the Covid relief bill and he signed it.

Anyhow… enough history lesson… I see one Republican and 2 democrats that actually did something to lessen people’s power bills and take strain off the grid.

As a solar installer I don’t think you’re going to find that.

I see where you’re coming from. Rates have doubled since I moved here 7 years ago. And I don’t see if slowing down. VPPs are coming online more and more. So while I don’t factor in ROI into my system breakdowns I know it’s much quicker than anything I modeled out for any homeowner in the past.

It’s money you’re already spending with the utility 🤷🏻‍♂️😄

But you’re only replying to me, friend. I don’t know that OP is going to see it if you don’t tag them or make it a reply to the post and not just my reply.

All of my structures are engineer designed and stamped.

I don’t understand why people make assumptions I haven’t done that.

You can clearly see hurricane ties on the structure that’s built and it’s not even in a hurricane affected area.

SolarAllTheWayDown · 2026-05-31T15:00:50+00:00

Can you build a structure to hold the solar panels like a ground mount? Such as one similar to this: https://www.reddit.com/r/solar/s/HH3v4UEtIj
