This is the quote I have had from "Off Grid". Its about what I was expecting I think. Ive not mentioned the Funster discount yet but I assume it will apply if I go ahead
Any opinions? Totally over the top for low power users like us but it is what I asked for and it will hopefully mean ill never have to worry about scrabbling for power again. Also worth remembering we off grid in one place for maybe a month without moving the van so currently a few days of dull weather and we are sitting in the dark playing scrabble with one light on.
I am assuming but will clarify that this solution incorporates our current panel.
