Solar on Si Bon

It is an amazing feeling when you can say goodbye to the electric company. The solar panels are finally installed...it's been almost a week since I was plugged in to shore power and my 740 amp hour house battery bank is nearly fully charged. I say nearly because it's 0800 and they are down a tiny amount due to night use. Right now under cloudy skies we are running Si Bon and putting 2-3 AMPS back into the batteries. Even as I am writing this my AMPs in is climbing...and by the time I get back from my walk I'll be fully charged.
