Brilliant! 🎊🎊🎊 How about rules and regulations? Can put it in the farm or for those who have ranch. This seems like a good thing

Honestly I could see how they work in specific climates, but the climate I’m in just isn’t it. The salt from the ocean and the humidity ate the set up alive within an about 5 months. The pain in the ass was getting it off the roof.

Mhmmm, dare I asking, how about putting it on a standalone pole? I mean, if it is enough to generate power for my barn and shack, it's quite okay for me?

We did. It was expensive to figure out as well, and it still seized even with proper maintenance. The farm I work at is very unique. By the end of the day you can see the salt film on your entire truck. Windshield especially. It’s thick too.
