But then I found this awesome "Planning Guide" from a catalogue for Backwoods Solar out of the U.S.
I trimmed the catalogue so it only included the helpful stuff but if you want to learn everything from how solar grids work to how many watts you need, check it out.
Okay so it appears I'm very new and didn't realize I couldn't upload a file larger than 2mb sooo I'm just gonna post the link to download the PDF from the company.
I'm new here so I didn't realize it didn't upload because it was too big of a file.
Then I tried to post the link to the direct download in a follow up reply but I guess because it was a download link I'm waiting for a moderator to approve it.
Backwoods is a great resource. They are in my small town and my friend John works there. He set me up with some gear I have yet to install. Hopefully soon-it's probably out of warranty by now.
Northern Arizona Wind and Sun are also very helpful.
