There's an ex electricity pole sitting in a field near me.

Re: Balcony solar PV

Odd thing is it will be delivered in to their depot, so why can't they deliver it to you????? :roll: That is a very good question 🤔. I checked on app & desktop. Smaller panels no problem, these big beasties not so much. TBH I'm going this big as they fit the roof area nicely. I'd rather have ha...

Good to see it kicking out 1187W this morning (4 x 435W Longi panels) Sorry no photos as it is in a strange place in the garden, nowhere actually has a vi...

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage

At this price, I might just sketch out the outdoor boot room tomorrow. Cheers Nowty! I'd need there to be headroom left on the 150V/60A charge controller. Can't remember what it hits now! https://i.postimg.cc/cLjzBJgh/20240508-170208.jpg One more voltage matched(ish) string of 3 maybe? https://i.pos...
