Slow but sure. Subpanel is almost wired. Realized that it will be very difficult to try run a new wire to the back of the fridge. So I'm going to tap into the 15 amp circuit up at the main panel and extend a 12 gauge wire from there down to the sub panel. Also trying to decide what size mega...

Full day of work including a home Depot run I finally figured out how to get my 6/2 wire run to the inverter. Holy crap that stuff is expensive. $200 for a piece of wire. This crap is out of hand. Got it wired to the main panel today. Had to come into the top of the box. Definitely a circus act...

Well that worked out pretty good actually. Finally got this thing all bolted in place. Damn I'm glad this is done. Yesterday I was an idiot and let it get off my blocks and the dolly and it damn near fell over in the coach. Had to wrestle it like a bear. Never a dull moment.

Found some neat rubberized weather strip sort of stuff that bends over as you push against it to seal. Going to try seal the fridge from the back side because it sits close to flush on the front with the face of the cabinets. Also had to make a wood piece for the top which will get some weather...

Figure I need to move this big shut off switch to the outside of my box since in an emergency I'd have to pull 12 bolts out.

So I turned 62 last month. Wife is a few years younger and we are both going to retire at the same time. Curious about opinions and where to invest your money. I have been a Realtor for 33 years and have had a fair amount of experience with hard money lenders and real estate. One option for us...

Got a little bit done today. Ready to drop those panels and be done on the roof. Half my toolbox is up there. Quite a few trips up and down the ladder. These are hooked up in parallel per my battery guy and the solar controller he sold me.

I just figured worst case scenario if we have very little Sun in the middle of winter at least give myself the option. I really don't plan on tilting them unless I need to. I could have both panels tilted in probably 5 to 10 minutes. We are planning on traveling all over the country with this...
