lol.

Being a single guy living off grid in a moderate manner certainly helps. The 7.2kw day was my girlfriend visiting. Making her supper. Keeping her cool. Entertaining her. She loves movies. Doing the dishes.

Even with leaving the internet on 24/7 now. With idle draw of 40w/hr. (Okay. I upgraded the firmware on my IoT plugs. They read voltage/watts now. 36.512w is the current usage). I typically use around 3.5kw/day.

An all electric vehicle would be a joy. (Your Volt use is an inspiration.) I'd like a little 3 wheeler with room for 2 and good sized trunk.

I can expand to 6 kw panels with my current controllers. So I think I could fit in another 12kw battery pack.

Chores. Oh ya. Back at 'em.
