Finally after 6 years we've broken even on our DIY solar installation costs!
 

I posted a bunch of details of my DIY solar installation back in 2017 here https://ecorenovator.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5352 and now 6 years later I can officially report that I've broken even on the installation costs! I've outlined all the details in this video https://youtu.be/m_UNWLxNehU for anyone who's interested in learning how it went for us. We live in Utah also, as a point of reference. I recognize that there's a lot of variables when it comes to this calculation depending on where you live, as well as costs of equipment which is different now 6 years later. That being said I still hope it's useful to see our details and perhaps with some tweaks to the metrics might help inform your own break even point. Or if you've already broken even feel free to post your timeframes here too!
