Our Home System
This system is where it all started for us. We bought it plug-and-play from a company who shall remain un-named. Over the years, with much research, we ended up rebuilding or replacing a good portion of it. (See Our Story for more.)
We now basically only ever run our back-up generator from October to March.

The Neighbour
We gained new neighbours recently. After getting the runaround by BC Hydro, and seeing our power system, they decided to go Solar with their new build.
We provided equipment and installation help.
Now they are sold on Solar and say they are never going back to the grid.

No More Tangle
For those of you who have been on our Wall of Shame page, this is the rat's nest system.
Some folks had a system installed by someone who called themself a professional.
It failed electrical safety inspection badly.
We were hired to provide the equipment and worked with other local professionals to bring it up to code.
The end result passed with flying colours.
Trailer Redo
A customer had purchased a trailer with a solar system already installed.
Unfortunately it was an all-in-one charger/inverter, which failed, and cooked the Lithium battery on its way out.
We had the privilege of supplying a quality system and restoring power to our happy customer!

This customer used a dry-erase to write their settings directly on the epanel.
We thought it was a great idea!!

Our RV
As you can maybe see by looking at the pictures, we like to camp in tough to get to places, in all kinds of weather. And we don't like the sound of a generator. In fact, we don't own one for camping.
Our RV solar system has grown over the years, we have power enough for days in the bush, even without much for sun.

Local Grid-Tie
Recently we were invited to assist in the installation of a grid-tie system in Burns Lake.
We appreciated the invitation from William's Electric and enjoyed the loooong day spent up on the 10/12 pitch roof.
Jason's muscles did not so much enjoy the pain for days afterward!
