Comments on the installation: "The install took 4 installers 3.5 hours which was unbelievably quick with the system operational when they left"
Comments on the system performance: "Absolutely saved on power bills. In 76 days it's generated 2530 kW, I've consumed 514 kW from the panels and 182 kW from the grid, so I've exported 2014 unis. I am in credit each month and am $450 towards recovering the cost of the system "
Advice: "Don't be fooled into going for battery storage. Ascertain how many units you average from the grid daily, in our case, it's less than 3 (may change in winter months), so you would never recover the cost $15k cost of at battery if it costs you $1 day for units from the grid."
