I am noticing that there seems to be a Solar Country Club type that tends to look down on us less well healed solar adopters. They spend $100k for mounting systems designed by the Engineering firm that built the Twin Towers. While those of us on the poor side of the solar divide mount our panels to the chicken coop with bailing wire and duct tape.
They buy batteries from General Dynamics and NASA while we find batteries in junk cars and repurpose them. They buy electrical gear that cost us lesser solar folks more than our first home and all 8 of our kids.
Oh well, while I could dream of becoming one of the Tier 1 crowd I must admit I feel more comfortable with those that have to make do with what they can afford.
