Had a solar panel/electric guy over. Thinking of converting the nursery and house over to a micro inverter: AP system. No batteries. Sell what we over generate back to the power company. Cost to us $2.50/watt purchase price. Came in cheaper and better system than 2 other competitive bidders. Panels made in the U.S.A with some great quality up to date materials and a 30 year warranty. Better Business A+ rated, licensed and insured family owned and operated tri-county company. 4-6 weeks to completion. Permitted and so forth. I didn't care too much one way or the other but Sue swayed me to at least take a look at it. It's only money. Right? There are tax credits, resale benefits and pay less for my monthly energy cost benefits. The salesman tried to talk me into converting the water heater, stove to gas. I told him no. Didn't want to have to deal with piping, tank storage and fill ups. He told us not to go with a battery back up system until battery technology improves. I agree.
