Ernie,

It sounds as if your solar there in Hawaii is a lot like here. Some of the big businesses have it and it seems to help them, but for the average home owner it just isn't practical yet. Our electric rates are some of the highest around, but the two solar companies I have talked to both told me the same thing. Plus I would have to pay a big permit charge, and hire an electrician to install everything, and at this time I don't think this city even is set up to install digital meters. So I will just stay with the conventional set up for my lifetime.

Ron
