Default Anyone working toward off grid

Spring maybe in full swing here in Southwestern Ontario. Our home spends most time off grid. A lot of days have been quite overcast but we manage to collect enough power. A few more panels will be installed shortly as we have the room for them. As well the quest for a Tesla pack will continue. Oddly I have seen packs for sale from $16k to $20k but I can purchase a complete lot drivable salvaged Tesla for $24K

To help the case some wind is being explored.

The truck has always gotten its charge at the shop. I finally purchased a portable charge cable for the S10 Electric Truck. Today its saddled up to some solar power at home. With clear blue sky the house batteries are charged by 10:00am. So a little surplus of power today. The car was totally charged yesterday.

Today my father-in-law and I ran errands all morning in the little truck. Charge and repeat.

It can be done
