    A fantastic topic, but there is one other very important reason to have an optimizer fitted to each pannel. If looking for solar do loads of research and get at least 3 quotes . Research is king , you will find loads. 🤔

    Great video .where dose the power generated actually go to is it into a battery or dose it be permanently conected to the emersion heater on the water tank so you have constant hot water .

      Hi! That will really depend on your set up. It will go back to the grid if not used in the house immediately. Some people have diverters so the excess energy goes to a home battery, or an immersion, or can be diverted into your EV.

      And currently, you'll get paid between 18.5 to 25 cents per kWh by your supplier. So less than what you pay std rate (e.g., 42 cents per kWh) but more than cheap rate (c. 12 c/kWh)

    Polish electrician- do not buy PV panels packaged this way. These elements are stored vertically differently and the single crystals crack
