This video is very informative. Thanks!

I have saved a bundle on my monthly utility bill! Solar watts that I don't use go onto the grid for which I get a solar credit. Whenever possible, I try to maximize this energy and minimize paying for many kilowatts: schedule hot-water chores -- laundry, dishwashing, even showers -- to times when the panels are getting full sunlight.

And they're low maintenance.
