Still charging the mobiles with BigBlue via a powerpack. It has produced for us every day. I am looking forward to getting it out to Turkey. Enjoying this so much I may need a panel in each location.

Likely covered on this thread ( lazily not re-reading the 7 pages) the puece appears to initially refer to balcony solar blocks of flats as a risk, removable non hard wired plugs, & with it disconnected live contacts, dual sockets, overloading the blocks capacity, electrocution risk for "unwary" electricians.

"Do you have solar" ..a first step for any visiting sparkie nowadays I'd have thought!

Seems like a harvesting opportunity wasted not implementing a viable solution for any high rise living design going up rather than a retro-fix.

I see a swiss company is going for the balcony solar market with mini battery feed storage to get round the questionable aspects floating around as to legality & safety.

"Soleis AG has developed two storage systems with capacities of 1 KWh and 2 kWh" (stackable & expandable obviously)
