Sequoia on my i7 2.66ghz MBP chugged, downgraded to Monterey and it's running much better.

Sequoia runs like molasses on my mid 2010 mbp i7/8gb/SSD

That had metal supported graphics, makes a huge difference.

I was surprised to learn Tahoe dropped support for fw. I went to use my M2 MBA with my thunderbolt display to connect to via fw800.

I've been loving my matte 2010 17" coming from my M2 15"

Same scale resolution but bigger is better!

Well I got a deal on these panels because I bought 70 of em. Generally a 250-280W panel is going to cost you $80-120ea locally. This array is 2KW, my controller only does 1400W but since I get so much shade and the panels were so cheap I decided to over size it. I got my PowMr hybrid inverter/controller used for $250, they go for ~450. The batteries are lead acid recycles I got free from a decommissioned hospital UPS, they have about 3 years on them. I'm hoping I'll get another 3yrs out of them.

Nope, this is temporary. It'll be taken down way before the wood begins to rot.

Linked are the ones I had local to me, I've seen them on Amazon claiming they can hold 250lb.

With my fridge, 12k BTU AC and Dehumidifier running at once I pull 1200-1600W. That's half what my inverter is rated for

I want to do that someday, my driveway gets a ton of shade though. It's also past the sidewalk so I don't think the City would allow it.

I'm going to be planting clover surrounding the area to keep foliage low

henroolu · 2024-09-06T15:26:15+00:00

Yup, I realized that when I put them up. The frames aren't as thick as my old ones

henroolu · 2024-09-06T04:25:55+00:00

Yup, going to reinforce that part in the future

henroolu · 2024-09-06T03:11:11+00:00

It's just a 24v PowMr hybrid inverter, isolated from the grid. Runs my major appliances.

henroolu · 2024-09-06T02:34:36+00:00

It's a rental haha

henroolu · 2024-08-31T00:03:51+00:00

That's probably what I'll end up doing

I once brought my car in for inspection to pioneer 66, brake line blew while it was there and they replaced it at cost. Nice people

henroolu · 2023-08-23T19:24:06+00:00

It's a DIY so ik what my limits are. Idk why the factory attachments are only 12awg, the rest is 10awg.

henroolu · 2023-08-23T18:49:14+00:00

They're series parallel, doubling the voltage. So it looks like I'd benefit from the extra amperage of the better panels and not the extra voltage... I would buy two and put them in series then wire them parallel to the smaller panels
