Beautiful Noise

There is lots of activity inside and outside the house today.
Inside, the kids are enjoying their Christmas bounty with Aunt Kathy, who has come for her holiday visit from California.

Outside, the sounds of footsteps, drills and hammers on the roof. The PV array is finally going up. FINALLY! It's not the 3.5k system we had originally planned, but a smaller 2.8k system. Them's the breaks. We should be fully functional by the end of today. Fingers and toes are crossed.

This is a huge leap from where we were just a few weeks ago. As I wrote earlier, we'd experienced an unbelievably stressful fall/early winter.

We were let down by Solaris Energy, our previous solar installer. Let down is a very nice way to put it. Our trust (and out investement) in the company and it's president was completely pretty much lost. Let's just say that we now have the attorney general's office and local court system involved in the relationship with them.

The situation with Solaris Energy has potentiallly set us back several years, but the beautiful noise reminds me why we set out on this journey.

I'm the sort of guy who loves to try bran-new stuff. Presently I am making my own photovoltaic panels. I'm managing it all alone without the aid of my men. I am using the internet as the only path to acheive this. I stumbled upon a truly awesome site which explains how to create photovoltaic panels and wind generators. The place explains all the steps required to solar panel construction.

I am not really sure about how correct the data given there iz. If some guys over here who have experience with these works can have a see and give your feedback in the page it would be grand and I'd really appreciate it, cause I extremely enjoy [URL=http://solar-panel-construction.com/diy-solar-panel-construction-is-it-really-possible]solar panel construction[/URL].

Tnx for reading this. You guys are the best.
