I’m seeing $0.60/watt here if you’re buying qty 10 of 550W panels. Is that a good price these days? https://sungoldpower.com/collections/monocrystalline-solar-panel I haven’t looked at panels in some years, but that sounds almost too low. Are they going to murder me with the shipping cost? Same site sells a 6000W MPPT inverter/charger with optional battery connection for $1600. And a wall mounted 5.1 KWh LifePo4 battery for about $1700. Seems like I could get 10x 550W panels, the inverter, and a battery for a little under $6600 before shipping. NY has suspended sales tax on solar power so no sales tax. I have not added up wire, mounting hardware, or other ancillary things, but the big ticket items look pretty dang reasonable. It should produce about $1000/year worth of electricity (based on a website telling me 3.79 average peak sun hours per day in NY). That seems worth it even with no incentives, but there’s also a federal tax credit and some state level incentives too. …and NY is ranked 47th out of the 50 states for solar production. So it’s better for most of you. Have we crossed a threshold where it’s become stupid NOT to do solar? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- Thank you, TJ Trout Volt Broadband 209.480.3122 Cell
