I pray California is NOT the future of the US. I say that as a resident of the state. All those links you posted are great but I think only Hawaii has higher electricity prices that California? And Texas already has more wind and solar t

Plug in batteries where the battery itself is cheap af (like Australia) and the ability to charge it for free from the grid exists (like Australia) are a no brainer. When batteries are expensive and grid electricity is not free (the entire

Behind the meter yes but the meter does still need to be a smart meter and programmed correctly otherwise you could get billed for any extra power that is exported to the grid.

People still actually pay attention to global warming forecasts? Err I mean climate change. I’m not a denier, in fact I’m quite a believer though not quite 100%, prolly closer to 80-90%. I mean the climate certainly changed a lot before

Yeah you can do that. I’m not an electrician, I was raised in a family with multiple union electricians though so I know enough to be dangerous. You would need a new “home run” cable from the outlet to your main panel and this assumes you

Yeah the only code compliant way this is possible is if an additional sub panel is installed and maybe/probably a transfer switch that needs to be manually pulled in order to disconnect the sub panel from the main panel. Possibly OP i

Yeah the truth is much closer to your experience than OP but, especially in California, there is a non-zero amount of people passing inspection but waiting a long time for the poco to give approval. Most delays don’t seem to be related to

The devil is in the details of “a couple bathrooms”. Is it just led lights and ceiling fans? No problem, especially if it’s a 20A circuit. If for some reason you plug in a space heater and a hair dryer then you have issues. So you really

Can’t wait to see what they release. There is apparently so much doubt against them that this isn’t even news. Like nobody knows or cares this is happening. If this was listed on polymarket it seems this would be trading at like 5 cents.

Do the db guys at your company help you optimize queries and table set up at all? Ours basically don’t at all. Their job is to maintain the db apparently and us devs are left to handle this and it seems wrong. I’ve been partitioning tabl

“Manipulation” is what? You want to create a rule that says a firm can’t buy more than x shares/dollars/% in a certain amount of time? Or if it does it has to hold onto those shares for a minimum time? A firm should be able to

Grid-tied inverters only push power if it senses the grid. It’s a standard feature and has been around for years. Off grid inverters push no matter what. The situation you fear is somebody not knowing what kind they have and just pluggin

Can you share your before and after bills? How long til you break even? What happens if you push 800w but your home is only using 300w? Without a clamp on main panel I don’t think it’s smart enough to know to push only 300 so does 500 go

I’m confused what ecoflow says. The Utah law says it must be a UL certified device. Ecoflow says something about not needing to wait for UL standard. Are they talking about the same thing? Or is ecoflow saying don’t need to wait for a U

For real. I’m trying to diy a battery now with 304ah lifepo4 cells and it works out to 125wh/kg. Doesn’t seem like even 300wh/kg will trickle down to the public anytime soon.

I’m sorry for that painful price drop you experienced but that is on you for paying 70k, a price that literally and explicitly was jacked up for the purpose of decreasing demand in order to resolve the order backlog at the time. Don’t forg

Walnuts are where it’s at (but agreed pine nuts are clearly the winner). Homemade pesto with homegrown basil was a revelation in our house. Better than any store bought and a fraction of the price.

Did you ask about the bill in winter before signing the lease? It’s a standard question before signing a lease in Chicago. Are you otherwise ‘getting a deal’ on rent and now you know why it was a deal?
