>>9719161It's funny, solar went from "not powerful enough" to "too expensive to be worth it" to you casually saying "I run my whole house off it" in less than a decade. I'm nearly 40, so that seems like a short amount of time to go from too hard - piss easy.
>>9719169>inverters have gotten so cheapYou're telling me. I picked one up for less than $100. Haven't used it yet, but just seeing how far the price has dropped blew me away.
On a related note around preparedness, I've got all sorts of back up power options like power banks and shit, but I still need to hook up solar panels to a car battery to get the whole thing working. The clocks ticking, I'd like to say this thread has inspired me to action, but I'm probably going to wait until the power drops out forever before I finally get the motivation to rig up the solar / battery system.
