    Any chance you could tell me about your solar system. What it consists off, how much it cost and what you think it will safe?

    Aire and Sun Power Systems sell solar mounts on Ebay, they also sell various solar panels and the charge controllers as well.

    Kyocera are another solar powered shop on ebay.

    Well done... you just bought panels for about E7 per watt. (Polycrystalline panels at that!) By the way, regardless of what they say, do not discharge your batteries below 60-70% or they won't last pissin time.

    Why don't people learn to look around??

    What payback do you estimate on the package?

    I don't think there's much point in reviving an almost 3-year old thread on this topic. May I suggest you check out the Renewable Energies forum - it's probably more suited to your query.
