Thanks Cork
I did the pretty much the same thing, 2000 watts. Electricity bill went from easy $150-$200 to $10-$30 a month during summer (pool pump season).
I purchased the solar hot water heater from Freddy MultiService, do not remember the size but paid $1200 USD installed. Best thing ever.
My reason for alternative energy is monthly run rate, initial cost and payback are secondary. When I am on a fixed income I do not want to care if energy goes up 300 percent. I’ll pay $100 but not $450.
