I love seeing how other people do their solar systems, especially those who create and maintain their systems on a shoestring budget, which is how we do things around here.
A quick search on YouTube for solar power netted this video called “Solar Power on a Budget”, sounds like my kind of system. This is a good way for most folk to start out, learning as you go, building and enlarging as needed, replacing what isn’t working with something that works better.
These 4 videos show the transformation from a very simple starter system, so a more expansive system.
