64 panels? Well, if that’s the best you can do, that’s the best you can do! Nice job Scott.
Great insight on the post height and cut. Love that pond.
Glad to see people trying their best to be self-reliant.
Wish there was someone like you close to where I live. No one around me wants to help a off grid DIYer.

Most companies don’t like haggling on price, they don’t want the liability of doing a partial install and they probably have plenty of work for people that aren’t going to stand over their back the whole time.
I have 98 panel Sinclair setup. Great ground mount!
"I'm going to sign off before I start babbling." *Me seeing there's still two minutes left in the video. Ha.

Same here in S. FL. Local companies peddling their "packages" with single vendor bundles. Tesla walls and REC panels only. 😢
That looked like river road in Sonoma CA in the opening roll.
Hi. For bifacial panels have another ground mount system?
How much of a downhill slope can those Sinclair mounts handle? For example, 3ft drop over 20ft?
Hello, thanks for the video. I’d like to find a contractor to set my solar panel rack poles the way you did in this video. What do I ask for?
I just received a 50 panel rack. Couldn't find anyone locally to drive the post.

SInclair has a list of installers they will provide to drive your posts-did you see if there was one in your area?
Are there ev chargers with dynamic load balancing that work with a off grid system that charge more when there is sun and know the status of the battery?
How long do you go with a Sinclair ground mount array before deciding it makes sense to have a gap and split into two (or more) structures?
Not the best place to ask this, but since you experiment with various batteries, do you know anything about the Mammoth Pro battery? I can only find marketing materials, not reviews. I'm wondering if that might be a good pairing with a Sol-Ark 15k.
I am interested in possibly purchasing some ground mounts from you. I had a question about what size panels they can take. I am looking at purchasing some commercial grade n-type panels that are higher output. I am thinking that it would require 12 to 18 inches(depending on which panels I buy) hanging off the end of the rack. Do you know if this would work or would violate any code requirements?
Know any reputable installers in NE Ohio?
64 Panels? That's a lot!!!

So is the price of a new Ford or Chevy truck. I don’t have to have that, but I gotta have my 120 405-480W panels. It’s all what’s important to us.
Does it take multiple people to crank the adjusters at once in order to tilt without flexing too much ?

About 7 cranks per pole, repeat, many times.....

Or just set them fixed at the angle where you need the most power coming in. I’m at 38° latitude. All 52kWp (give or take) of my arrays are between 45 and 65°. No way am I going out once a month and cranking seven times each!

@@USA-GreedyMenOfNoIntegrity My need for adjustable angle is for snow shedding. If it wasn't for that, I would not bother with adjustments either. But 35 degrees would suck with snow.

Cranking an array manually with one person takes 10-15 minutes, do it once a month, or once a quarter, it’s no big deal.

Celebrate the equinoxes, bring some friends over for beer and burgers and crank for the next 6 months. St. Patrick's day or Easter for spring, Labor day for the fall are good opportunities if you don't feel like being pagan about tilting your sun gathering megalith.
