    Single-Point Watering systems

    If you are trying to say to buy lithium, they are not going to work for me.

    Single-Point Watering systems

    I was looking at possible getting a single point watering system with the trojan batteries im about to order. Does anyone on here have experience with them? Pros and Cons?

    New IRS requirements for battery tax credit. False alarm, please ignore.

    So I havnt bought batteries. I take it I would be able to still claim it?

    Acceptable voltage in home.

    Not sure this is the best area for this question but here it goes. I have a fairly long run of wire (300ft round trip) to my inverter and the voltage from the grid is at 115v. Since the inverter is matching the grid voltage and then having to send that back to the house my drop is a tad bit...
