William is right, there is another list that is suited for these questions. Ask Michael about it. benn

I thought this list was for mechanical / electrical / technical issues. 2. Anyone would be a fool to let someone else ascertain a bid for them. Each contractor has different costs, techniques and situations. 3. Each job is different. I avoid even figuring a dollar/watt ratio for a given job, because it won't necessarily apply to the next job.. 4. I want to avoid any appearance of price fixing. If the rest of you want to compare notes on pricing, feel free, but I won't be participating.

This is by far larger than anything we've designed so I am looking for a ballpark cost/watt. I'm at around $4/watt. I realize there are lots of variables and I am looking for help on this but just wondering if I am in the ballpark? Thank you.
