So Dave spent $3,000 and two months of frustration for a system that saves him $40 a month. I spent $200 on a plug-in panel, set it up in ten minutes, and now I save $15 a month while sipping that iced tea. Who’s the sucker now, Dave?
If you’re curious and cheap (like me), start with one small panel. You can always add more later—like potato chips, but for electricity. Just don’t tell your friends how easy it was, or you’ll become the neighborhood solar guru. And honestly, that’s a badge worth wearing.
Now go plug something into the sun. Your wallet will thank you.
