[QUOTE="jrusling, post: 2258635, member: 10401"] I did install a small solar system on my shop/storage building, but it is not cheap to do. You do have to be careful of some of the Chinese solar panels, as they have been having real problems with some of them. If you want a grid tie system, I would recommend adding at least some battery backup and an inverter. At least you would have some power when the power fails. I installed my system my self, which was an interesting project. When I was researching solar I called [URL="http://www.suncityenergy.com/products/solar-power/?gclid=CMrU-vCv4rgCFSFyQgodbngAPg"]http://www.suncityenergy.com/products/solar-power/?gclid=CMrU-vCv4rgCFSFyQgodbngAPg[/URL], but they did not do small systems like I was putting in. The did recommend me to [URL="http://www.wholesalesolar.com/"]http://www.wholesalesolar.com/[/URL], who is the company that I got most of my stuff from. I could have beat their prices some, but they also provided a system design that would meet my needs and were available on the phone when I had questions when I was doing the install. My system will generate 2.5 KWH per day one most days. [/QUOTE]
