What is bad about solar panels? Besides that it’s junk now, seems like a rare case. I think solar panels are good supplemental energy. I can live off just 200 watt panel in California.. powers a fridge, all my lights, laptop, Wi-Fi, security camera, and fans with no issue.. basically a $500 setup and as long as I don’t experience a hail storm I won’t have any electricity costs. I don’t think it’s for everyone, but if you own a home, why not build your own little system and avoid paying an electricity company? Solar required for off grid living, id assume this forum in general favor of being off grid, so don’t understand the hate towards it
Add air conditioning and the watts go way up. You can buy a pallet of solar panels pretty cheap. And now they have those all in one charger/converter doodads for fairly cheap.
Lithium batteries are very cheap for what they provide and how long they last.. for example 200 amp hour battery going for $600.. you have 200ah that’ll last you 10 years.. $60 a year.. barely over $1 a week in the long run
Yeah look on Amazon the price has gone down significantly just this year.. the chart of lithium looks exactly like bitcoin..
those batteries look nice but very pricey, seems like a luxury high end American company..

Batteries are still way expensive.

That is cheap! I have seen mostly 100ah for about 1000 bucks! There ARE used Chinese recon batteries for cheaper. But still better than a car battery.
Edison Batteries are the best but really expensive and HEAVY!
