6.0 kW 24 panels.
Runs 2 fridges, 60,000 litre swimming pool pump, 3 air-cons, elect plate and oven, hot water and 50 inch plasma TV.
Try to use as much electricity as we can during sunshine hours.

Does running it in 'sunny" hours help. When I had solar i sold all the electricity to the supplier and they resold it to me. At first that was great as they paid me 60c and I paid about 21c. Each quarter I got a big cheque after billing. That changed and then they paid me 12c and charged me 21c.

I changed house. Had a recent quote for a new installation. It would be at least 20 years before I broke even. I chose to invest the money into lithium stocks instead. One I bought was SYA for .09c and sold some today for 6.5c. The profit will cover my electricity account for many months. I think a better bet than installing batteries is to invest in Lithium and Cobalt as a better bet than investing in solar panels.

I'll let the climate alarmists invest in solar and create a demand for Lithium and cobalt.

20 years? Is your power bill pretty small?
