    I was wandering around my array the other day and I saw the IMO box was open on the bottom. The screw had popped out, so I tried screwing back in. It was acting like it was stripped out on the inside plastic. I squirted some E6000 in the screw hole and let it dry overnight. Next day the box...

    Urban off grid install in Colorado
