[QUOTE="Treemansam, post: 3623616, member: 46484"] I did my own (we get by with a lot a help from our friends). I spent just over 10k$ for 24 panels and 28 big SEaled lead acid batteries. The problem is I have an electric hot water heater and my $4k inverter can’t handle it. The solution is install passive solar hot water heater and leave the tank on grid. But let’s be real here most Oklahoma power company’s won’t buy excess solar. The point is independence. I can live with seasonal hot water. Or heating it on the woodstove if I get desperate. [/QUOTE]
