<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrDFkXxmlbU&t=63">1:03</a> common misconception, they are guaranteed good for 30 years and then still produce 80% of their rated power. So even after 30 years they'll still produce about 370 watts each

As an apprentice electrician in the switchgear industry, I highly recommend you have an Earth Leakage on that plug circuit you made and a 20A CB C curve breaker. I would recommend further that you haven't, to have an earth rod in the ground connected to the inverter and the Neutral before the earth leakage. I'm just ensuring you know about this as I'm just touching on something I really wish you installed, as you run your whole shack on that plug circuit, as this can really hurt someone or create an floting nutrual/earth.

You have earned a SUB. I had an idea myself 2 years ago when we had Disposable Vapes that couldn't be charged that used Li Ion cells. I wanted to turn them into battery banks to give to the homeless to help keep them connected to the world and get help with housing and any other services they need to use. This video has reignited my idea as can see this is a working idea. I will also be setting up panels where people can stop off and charge their devices for FREE in the street

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrDFkXxmlbU&t=375">6:15</a> - As someone who works in solar, you should get a chisel and notch out the underside of the tile where the bracket is sitting. This will reduce the gap and water from getting in

~5 years ago I took a battery from a disposable vape. It still works to this day with 11cm*6cm solar panel attached, powering an ESP8266 for off-grid data logger project (microcontroller is in sleep mode most of the time to save energy). It is hard to believe how much e-waste these disposable vapes cause...<br><br>Great video, keep up the good work!
