Update on my solar install
Well it has been a little over two weeks since I was approved and turned on the system. I checked to see when the little "arrow" on the meter would start pointing to the inverter, meaning it is making more electricity than I am using and it is about 6:45 AM even it there is some haze. I was a little worried about haze since I live about a mile from the San Diego bay and we get overcast in the AM.
The arrow changes towards SDG&E about the time the sun goes just below the horizon so about 12 hours a day. I tried running the bedroom A/C, drill press, lathe, two refrigerators, one freezer, two computers and four ceiling fans and the arrow still points to the inverter! Yeah!!!
It will be a while before the next bill so we'll see what happens to costs?
