We are the first in our town to install solar and fortunately our homeowners association, city, and power company have been nothing but supportive.  Our Installer, Phil Fisher of Solar System Installation is a wealth of knowledge, after all, he has done this for 27 years.  I will post some time lapse video soon to give you an idea of what kind of output we get with this system.  We used BP 175 B solar panels with a PV 5200 inverter.  A conservative run of the numbers shows that we will produce approximately 2/3 of our power in a given year.  I must admit that I enjoy seeing our meter run backwards.  More later....
