@@GainSolarPower no doubt. thank you and the big boss man for the videos. one of these days i will hack a system like this in to my place

why do you put conduit/fittings on top of outdoor junction boxes and wire trough? seals and gaskets will crack over time and leak. wouldn't it be better to run it underneath?

I only use the boxes as feed thru toughs there are no live connections inside. It looks nice to run out the top. I open up a lot of old boxes. It’s not like it has a garden hose on it. And the boxes can drain

Another informative video! Thanks Johnny.

I though they are a Federal Law that a electric company must buy back power. I have talked to the PUCO in a few states and I have found out some electric suppliers don't have to follow the same rules.

They will allow you to sell back they just won’t give any money for excess power

When supplied by electric coops it's up to them to what buyback program to offer.

I need a similar system and have been comparing outback radian, schneider conext 6848, magnums or solarks. I'm trying to have a minimum of 12k but would prefer 16k+ inverting power. And, I'd like to have at least two inverters for redundancy. We need a system that can run a well pump, AC in the summer and have enough power to run a heavy load every once in a while if needed like a small welder. I'm leaning with the outback or conext, what are your thoughts on this? The solark doesn't seem to handle large inductive loads very well. If you were building a new system from scratch today what would you choose?

If you are going to DIY the solark is a lot easier. I’d rather have two 12ks that a 15k.

@@GainSolarPower From what I've seen the solark seems to shit its pants like a night of budwieser and taco bell when trying to start inductive loads; and it seems more sensitive than a woman asking "do i look fat in this dress" on unbalanced loads with "blue wire nuts" lol

@@GainSolarPower David, Bens Solar and people on diysolar forum all report the same issues with it which is why I was looking at the outback or conext. I think Ben, which is also a solar installer you might know, put in a auto transformer to help with unbalanced loads on his personal solark.
