nsw gov gave us small towns people 1.5Kw system's for free just pay the sparky to wire it to a gross meter [$300] and get 60 cents for every Kw produced,i 'll be paying a extra $400 for the panels to be placed on angled frames to face true north/avoid damage from stone thrower's going passed [pissed idiott's] and get full sun because of neibours bushy gum tree.the same system cost $2k to be installed in S.A. by the same companyPt Wakefield Matt
Hi Bruce,
I think I have 2 spare 180 watt panels $540(Komaes Solar)left out of a batch of 48 I imported,also 80 watt camp panels $425 and 20 watt $65.
I spoke to Glenn about an add on the site but most have been sold,some 20 watt left.
I'm going to import some more,as I sold the 8 panels for my own house upgrade.
I'm down at Lismore.
Regards IvanBUGS
