  • @PeterSosinski
    One of the most enjoyable youtubers to watch. Honest, to the point and humble. Passionate too.
  • @tumbleweed1976
    Thank you Will for thinking of us who are not as adventurous minded with battery back up 🎈
  • @mondavou9408
    just a heads up for some folks, you still need a load center (breaker box) and outlets sorted out. Seems obvious, but some folks forget that part. I have the 3 battery rack. This is a nice system, I probably would have purchased it if it was available at the time I built mine. BTW, thank you Will for your videos, because without you, I wouldn't have ever been able to get off grid.
  • @joentexas
    Good stuff, Will. Thanks for the demonstration and information.
  • @martinsimar5708
    Finally getting close to setting up my first state and this looks like what I’ll need. Mainly enough to run my freezers and fridge with extra in case of emergency
  • @GavinStoneDIY
    Yeah that is a cool advantage to the new batteries. Slim form factor. Makes it a nice looking setup.
  • @clarencewiles963
    Get your hands on an engine lift to help pick it up. They are on wheels and the battery is within it’s weight class with the boom extended. Because we don’t want you injured. 😊
  • I find all your videos to be very helpful thank you for sharing this with us six stars
  • @jerryhicks8011
    Complete Nube here. I love your videos and greatly appreciate you putting together the forum. Between the two I am a lot more confident in trying to lay out my 'dream' system and how to plan it in stages. Thank you.
  • I love watching your videos! Your enthusiasm and the amazing rate of change in the industry has me excited!! I bought some used solar panels from Santan Solar and need to save and buy the other fun trinkets to get my system going. My neighbor can't believe I want this because we have had 5 straight days of clouds. If it pays my a.c. bill in the summer, I am happy.
  • @damionjones5849
    Excellent work! Please keep providing us with these gifts.
  • @LivingFree4All
    Thanks Wil. Believe it or not, you were the one that got me into solar almost a decade ago and i keep coming back too you. You made it look easy (lol its not exactly that easy but is doable) and you helped start my long research and development of my own solar system. I'm very serious about getting the 2 and the combo box. I'm betting you have already told this but how loud are these invertors?
  • @terrysmith2644
    Hey Will good job. I live in Vegas too. All lower priced systems are a benefit to know.
  • @tradermunky1998
    Yeah. That's really sweet. Build it out another layer please!
  • @aXBlackDeathXa
    I suppose one positive for waiting to pull the trigger on a system is that they keep coming out with better bang for the buck options! I was hard set on a racked setup now has me thinking otherwise.
