After spending a bit of time on the roof last month, and after clearing a couple of trees, I have decided to take the plunge and install a couple of the 45w solar panel kits from Harbor freight on the roof after I get the whole thing redone next spring.
As usual, there are hundreds of positive and negative reviews of the HF gear, and I realize it is limited, simple and not able to fully power my home.
Has anyone here had any actual experience with these units?
I simply want a power source to recharge my cordless tools continuously and run a few 12v lights in the house during emergencies.
I already own a couple of deep cycle batteries and a 1200w inverter for the occasional plug in power tool, but my small generator will power those if long periods of use are needed. So hopefully all I will need to purchase is the panels and some wiring.
