Im looking forward to this. (I'm almost positive)
Some time back I posted in this forum the desire for just a couple panels that could be mounted to SUPPLEMENT power to our home when the sun shines. I posted about this for a fun project. I in no way wanted a big bunch of panels and the associated cost. I would never re-coup the cost.
Anyway, little did I know what I want always existed overseas. 4 panels, 1200 watts complete with inverter and all you do is plug an electric cord into an electric plug in your home.
Very cool, Im not concerned per se' about saving some huge amount of money on my electric but it would be cool on sunny days to have fun watching the sun pump some electricity into the house that I dont pay for. Though now that we will be going demand usage next summer, this would kick in some free electricity during those peak summer hours 2PM to 6PM
The cost is really nothing. The ONLY thing for me is I would most likely put the 4 panels on the roof. Dont think anything else would work aesthetically.
SO far only approved in UTAH. Now that the cat is out of the bag I can see the flood gates opening. I'll seriously look into this once all my other projects are done on our new home.

I dont know, I get the ebee jeebe's about having something mounted on the roof, but 4 panels should take a professional maybe a couple hours? I can do the rest or even the whole thing.

It would be nice to see some big names get into this.
