My Solar Exploits

Not a lot to report. Had a multi-day overcast and snow and the batteries bottomed out and the system automatically switched to grid power and started charging the batteries. The confusing thing is that it made the switch at a different point and in a different manner than the first time. No big deal, but will need to figure out why and maybe adjust some parameters.

This bottoming out puts a small glitch in my hopes of running a full month just from Solar/Batteries but still hoping to see a significant difference in the monthly Xcel bill...should know in a couple of weeks.

Also moved my panels around in the backyard to hopefully better take advantage of the winter sun. Moved one set back against the rear fence where I can leave them at a more productive angle. We'll see.

Enjoy!
