With the fan oven now off, we’re exporting 150w to the grid, and still getting 1680w. The battery is charging at max rate but we’d need more batteries to capture all the juice coming from solar.

I could’ve installed the system for a lot less if it had been ground level, but it’s a large Victorian property with very high ceilings and it’s a 30 foot haul to get up on the roofs, so I got the pros in rather than mess about.

MY entire bill for last billing cycle for power:

543 KWH for 33 days.

Average less than 16.5 KWH a day...

I have electric clothes dryer.....propane hear with blower fan to distribute—and it is winter here in N Nevada.

Home all day—retired-—lights & TV on. Well for water.

I refill horse water tanks about every 8 days.. in winter...from MY OWN 180’ deep well.

MY power bills do NOT exceed $100 a month.
